The NFL players are at it again - taking a knee when they should be standing proudly for the National Anthem. Numerous players, from different teams, wanted to show their “outrage” at something that most of them are unable to define. They make a fortune doing what they love......

.....Be happy, be cool! A football game, that fans are paying soooo much money to watch and enjoy, is no place to protest. Most of that money goes to the players anyway. Find another way to protest. Stand proudly for your National Anthem or be Suspended Without Pay!

President Donald Trump reignited his feud with the National Football League, blasting football players who protested during preseason games the prior evening.
Posted by MSNBC on Friday, 10 August 2018

Several NFL players on Thursday took a knee, raised a fist or did not take to the field while the National Anthem was played before a dozen games, as the league's first full week of preseason contests kicked off. The NFL said it won't punish the players who took part in Thursday's protests, noting it had shelved what was supposed to be a new policy on anthem conduct until it reaches an agreement with the NFL Players Association. The protests -- meant to draw attention to racial injustice -- have happened with varying participation since 2016, pulling the league into a public debate that has seen President Donald Trump call on team owners to stem them.
