lol, ok nausi. Sure.
NFL sponsors starting to pushback. Oh lordy, if the dreaded boogieman of capitalism ends up righting this ship, libs will eternally be BTFO.
That's ok they'll just get new ones. Maybe even ones that are progressive globalists with an agenda for worldwide expansion.
Yep, Nike has chosen a side:The NFL and its players. I'm sure whatever sponsor nausi is making up sure will be able to counter Nike's empire.
He's referring to the facts I don't like/false rumor that Budweiser was going to pull sponsorship over the taking a knee.
Which is patently stupid to believe since their super bowl ad this year was addressing the "dotardation" of conservatives stance on immigration.

Monday Night Football had huge ratings, despite Trump's lies on twitter this morning. No big surprise here, America's Team in a primetime slot against a competitive opponent, prints money.
Also seems like a good time for this reminder of how someone went from sitting out to kneeling.

People's lives and well being in a U.S territory > stupid outrage over athletes using anthem as a vehicle for peaceful protest.

That's an interesting claim to substantiate given your demonstrated history of having a specific media source.
My favorite right is the right to remain silent I suggest you do so also.

We care about Puerto Rico soon as I figure out which island it is on the map !
These players are just concussion-addled marionettes dancing on the strings of their bloated benefactors. I'll bet half the folks that went along with this crap just did it for fear of reprisal. If these guys really wanted to protest something, how about the scores of aborted black babies over the years? Or the hundreds of "brothas and sistas" killed by their own each year? Of course the suits pulling their strings can't have that!
As much as I like Trump (OMG! DEVIL! DEVIL! LJDKSJFADJFSD), he doesn't need to keep harping on this thing. The league is already a shadow of its former self and is doing a good job of "ratings seppuku". They'll have a few dead cat bounces over the season, but that's about it.

I support aid to Puerto Rico as soon as they apologize for Despacito.

In other news that is more important than the hurt feelings of a bunch of rich dudes, King Salman of Saudi Arabia has decreed that women there will be allowed to drive.

in another 30 years maybe we can welcome them to the 20th century.

I think the Cowboys laid out the groundwork for what most teams will do now ... stand for the anthem.
Which is what Trump said?
No, its not what Trump said, Trump targeted individuals, referring to them as sons of ***, and it had the complete opposite effect, instead of a couple of individuals, entire teams protested. And like I said, those individuals that he was targeting are going to keep kneeling for the anthem. He accomplished nothing, ratings aren't "way down" the way he thinks they are, people are still watching their games, just not the same way they used to.
What!? Name the individuals that Trump singled out. He said that he wished that if owners saw their player kneel for the anthem, that he would tell the son of a *** they're fired. I don't know how you come up with that singling anyone out? Then YOU state that the Cowboys laid out what teams will do now...which is stand for the anthem. That's exactly what Trump was talking about, that people should stand for the anthem. I don't get your counterargument at all.

Best facts I don't like of the day is "trump commited a crime by "demanding" the nfl act a certain way".

Best real news of the day, Trump's candidate in Alabama got routed in the runoff. I'm sure Trump and nausi will try to spin that as a win.
The shows of solidarity were for protesting Trump's criticism and not meant as an endorsement of what motivated the kneeling in the first place. Saying Trump is getting what he wanted by having the teams stand completely (and unsurprisingly) misses the point of the demonstrations.
