Owners talking about letting home team decide if teams come out for anthem, assessing 15 yard penalty on teams with members who kneel

So much for keeping politics out of the game, huh?

Just suggesting the second one tells me the NFL has learned nothing the past 2 years lol.

Not one fug is given either way by muah.  Stand, sit, kneel or take a nap, has nothing to do with the game being played.  Hell I've seen people passed out during the anthem and not one single person bitched about that.

Assessing a penalty for exercising your constitutional right to peaceful protest. I'm sure that'll go over well among the players and fans. Unbelievable.

I dont even turn up the sound until I see the players in kickoff position. They can do whatever they want and I'll never know.

I honestly don’t care one way or the other but it’s the employer’s constitutional right to require things within reason of their employees. People have the constitutional right wear a t-shirt and jeans to work, but Cam gets benched and Anderson throws a pick 6 on the first play because Cam didn’t wear a tie. That’s how it works. It’s absolutely within the league’s rights to dictate anthem behavior. It’s all a matter of how it affects public perception and how that affects the bottom line.

Why can’t they just wait in the locker room like they used to do?

Why can't they stand for the National Anthem and support this beautiful country?

I believe people should stand and show respect but damn NFL...
