‘Boycott NFL’ sweeps internet because if ungrateful players can sit-out anthem, fans can sit-out games
Thursday night Denver Broncos player Brandon Marshall became the latest player to take knee during the anthem, and the first of the regular season. His protest came only hours after Seattle Seahawks players threatened a team-wide protest for their game on Sept. 11.
So let me get this straight. The NFL outright refuses to allow the Dallas Cowboys simple honoring of murdered police officers, but will allow an entire team to disrespect the country on the 15th anniversary of 9/11? I'm watching this closely as my Dolphins play these SeaChickens when they plan their "protest". If this is allowed and there are no ramifications from the NFL League office, I am done with the NFL after 44 years. I will not support a product that engages in social engineering.
