Half the Houston team went to a knee to get back at the owner for saying "inmates can't run the prison" comment...

Inmates took a knee I guess and we are getting near a prison riot..

Majority of Texans players take knee during anthem

A majority of the Houston Texans players took a knee and linked arms during the national anthem prior to Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks.

Won't even show a glimpse of national anthem on televised games anymore.
Sad

Disgusting.. NFL and networks are in bed together to make that happen... Very sneaky play and that is very Anti-American when you think about it!!!...

Inmates do run the prison I guess. To not show the Anthem before Nationally Televised games now is giving in the kneeling players that continue to disrespect the Anthem..

What Country do we live in? I'm confused??? Is the NFL even an American sport anymore?

I don't really remember them showing it much prior to the Kaepernick fiasco except for the Superbowl. It got to the point where they were going out of their way to show during the game what was happening during the anthem.

Most of the time they are showing commercials while the anthem is being played, then after it is over, the game comes on.

Yeh your God who loves America for what it is today is making them lose...

NFL and Networks usually show anthem on nationally televised games...Monday night, Sunday night, etc.
They showed the anthem in the past to boost ratings and increase profit. Not now though.

Seems really simple to just get paid and gtfo out of here....Many foreign football leagues would take these guys...get out and get paid if you're not happy here

Business decision

I haven't watched one minute of NFL this season. I know I'm just one guy and my personal little boycott doesn't mean squat to them, but I can't bring myself to patronize such open anti-Americanism.

How did Miami do on Thursday ?????
😂.

I wouldnt watch because the quality of play would be too subpar

Shute · 10-29-17, 08:29 PM

Word to the kneelers
Life ain't fair bitch
Go to work and cash your check
Protest on your time not your employers
Got it?

thechaoz · 10-29-17, 08:32 PM

Who cares? It's about big hits and winning money

Shute · 10-29-17, 08:34 PM

^^^^ yes I agree.
It's just my cathartic release for the week.
I am more calm now.

Yep it's almost like not showing the Anthem and flag at the Olympics when you medal..

Not only are people not seeing them kneel anymore on TV to get some protest message across they've ruined it for everyone now. You will never hear or see the flag or hear the Anthem played at NFL football games anymore on your TV...

...

NFL should really be boycotted now.. I may have too!!! This shiiiit pisses me off....

Media manipulating the market

JIBBBY · 10-29-17, 08:56 PM

You can't take out the National Anthem before every game now on TV.. That's not American and that's not cool!!!

Anthem gets fans fired up before games, no?

SportsMushroom · 10-29-17, 10:25 PM

I still dont get it, you moan about players not standing for the flag, but the other guy dodges the draft like 37 times, and you make him president and worship him. isn't that irony?

standing for the flag at least is only symbolic, it has no direct consequence, but dodging the draft is quite huge. if you are ok with someone who dodged the draft you are ok with someone not standing during the anthem, you are only angry because you are following dear leader, even if you will not admit it
