Take their paychecks away. Take freedom of choice away. All because they don't stand before a flag.

Insanity.
The fascist morons posting here woulda made great little Nazi's... They don't know what makes this country great, they think patriotism is waving a stupid little flag at a 4th of July Parade, standing for the National Anthem and dropping to their knees everytime they see a soldier...

These players are the real patriots because dissent is the highest form of patriotism. The great thing about America is that you can criticize it (oh the horror! yeah were not perfect, folks) without the government coming down on you. ANYBODY that gets upset by players not standing for the anthem doesn't really understand America, freedom and the constitution.

In North Korea they force people at gunpoint to sing the stupid song, praise the supreme leader and the country , thats not they way we do it here people...and anybody that knows anything about human history knows why- Most of the posters here are just IGNORANT of history, and thats why we got a hate/fear button pushing clown as President.
