The first thing I bought my Son is a football. I am utterly tired of being lectured to by these turds. Football is an escape from everyday crap; a chance to unwind and enjoy some sport. These stupid players have stolen that from me and I am pissed.

You need to look at who is lecturing you, and overall who is lecturing who.

The players LOVE THEIR COUNTRY MORE THAN THEY LOVE FOOTBALL, and have THE GUTS to put it all on the line.

Lecturing, please.  It is a silent gesture. 

Bear in mind the idiot in chief advocated today they protest the police ON THE FIELD.

Stand up for that?

My first son will be born in a few days.  Can't wait to gear him up in Jag gear, and proud that our owner was at the forefront in a stand against a tyrant.

1.  Congrats on the imminent birth of your son!  May he be healthy and lead a prosperous life.  You raising him as a Jaguars fan gives him a good head start!

2.  How would players protest against police "on the field" without drawing the ire of conservatives who have situational ethics when it comes to free speech and the ability to express dissent?  Let's assume that somehow they did it after the national anthem, so as not to offend the sensibilities of these "eggshell patriots."  Should wedgebusters blindside random police officers on the opening kickoff?  Would conservatives be any less offended if all of the sympathetic players took knees at the start of play and not move for 15 minutes? If players held banners on the sideline prominently visible for all normal angle TV cameras to capture, for viewing audiences at home to see, would there be any less outrage from the right?
