    Yeah... that statement sucks too
    Y'all are still trying to reason with it? Interesting.

There is plenty of other things to do around the house and outdoors. Maybe instead of sitting on the couch eating junk food I can get myself in shape.

    I tried to watch baseball the other day but once I saw the BLM letters on the mound I was done with them too. I know no one cares but I don't think I'll go back to sports. I can go on youtube and watch old clips of the NFL.
    Black lives matter, sure. BLM is a Marxist organization that has openly threatened Jewish people, police, and remains silent when children are gunned down in the street.

    Really? You don't understand why it's a problem having a <blank> National Anthem where <blank> is some racial, ethnic, religious, gender, sexual preference based identity?
    Should we rename the existing one the "White National Anthem"? Then should we add one for all the other endless subdivisions that exist in the NFL and the US i.e. Gay, Trans, Native-American, Chinese-American, Pacific-Islander, Mexican American, Indian-American etc. etc.. Any of those things really sound like good ideas to you?

    What is the white national anthem? I can't find it on google. Post it here so we can critique the lyrics.

    You can't actually reason with it because it's either a troll or an idiot. Either way, the best bet is to ignore it or mock it depending on one's mood.

    Hilarious that all these conservative snowflakes give up something they love so much because of this stuff. Denying themselves a hobby/past-time because they don't agree with certain people that are exercising their first amendment rights.

    Left leaning folks have dealt with the right leaning military glorification / paid patriotism BS for long enough without letting it affect our enjoyment of the game. Get over yourselves.

    Good timing on this as well! I'll enjoy watching our once in a lifetime QB dice up defenses.

    Ah yes, I'm a troll because I disagree with you....but I prefer the mocking though btw. I like to see how creative you can get with it.

    lol right! It's hilarious....it's especially funny because the people they are supposedly standing up for (the military men and woman) AGREE and actually take pride in people exercising the rights they fought bravely for.

    I’m going to echo Moe and say that I’d be lying if this would stop me from watching, but this is the point where I get angry... if they are both respected I am “ok” ish having a black national anthem though I think it is divisive and unnecessary, but.., I digress.

    If this occurs, it certainly shows who the real racists are...
    I have said for a while, that there is one community ere racism runs rampant, and it’s the same community that claims to hate it so much. Maybe some homes don’t have mirrors.
