This is why Trump won and how we the American people are finally winning. I can't believe how long we put up with this nonsense. Literally, nobody cares about healthcare. No one really cares about taxes. But this is something that actually touches each and every person's life in an unambiguously negative way. Trump has finally issued a statement on the one indicator signaling America's imminent decline. I've never been so proud to have someone as my voice and the voice of countless others.

I think this is the best compromise


If you don't want to stand for the national anthem ,that's ok but you have to stay in the locker room during the anthem .

MODERATE COMPROMISE!!

"By all means you should feel free to protest, but make sure you are hidden away so no one can see you..."


That's the whole point , as the on field protest  is causing major problems for the NFL and they need to move on from this issue asap .


Outside of angry internet commenters, not really.

Not really? Have you not seen their ratings?

#BankruptTheNFL If the owners were smart, they would blacklist Josh Rosen ahead of time before he actually does a number on the league in a way Kap could only dream up. Banning him would instill enough faith in me to watch a few games a year again

Hopefully will be out of the league next year if there is any justice for a 0.1 WAR

The Chicago Bears, a classy organization, stood shoulder to shoulder today for the anthem.  The Pittsburgh Steelers should be forced to forfeit the game for their actions.  Fortunately, karma is in Soldier Field today, and its not in the Steeler's favor.

Back in the olden days when I watched the NFL, the Steelers were my favourite team and the Bears my least. And you are completely correct. What a disgrace.

No one forced Collin Caepernick to make himself toxic.

I'm still not seeing how what Kaepernick did was so toxic, but the NFL and it's fans have absolutely no problem with this:

Still sounds like there are significantly more important things to be worried about when it comes to who should be allowed to keep their jobs.
I personally don't have a problem with what Kaepernick did, but I do know that every single NFL fan I know bar one is extremely angry with him. I'm curious to know how many of them are going to quit watching football period after today.

I doubt this will harm the NFL at all.  It will blow over shortly, just like other times where Trump has  stirred up controversy.

>Jeff Flake still waiting for this feud to just blow over like other times. Trump fans not in control of his future at all.

Should've spent more time practicing plays than practicing kneeling. DA BEARS!

Wow, I've only just seen Obama's 2016 take on the issue. If you thought Trump's take was great, Obama's take was downright inspiring!! What a guy!! #AlwaysMyPresident https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPqOotT_ta8

They ought to be co-Presidents!
