Half Empty? NFL

[Catatonic]

So we agree the athletes were just exercising their First Amendment right.

That sounds ignorant so I assume I am missing something.
The First Amendment protects citizens from from government action against them ... not from anyone else.

 

[Catatonic]

Geez, everyone's a Constitutional scholar on this site!!!

I would propose it's the other way around ... everyone here is ignorant of the Constitution.
The first nine amendments delineates protection for citizens from governments ... it does not protect the citizens from employers or other individuals.
The First Amendment protects citizens from from government action against them ... not from anyone else.

Try reading the whole conversation. I was responding to his assertion that Drumpf was exercising his first amendment rights when he called the players " sons of bitches ". If the potus has that right then the players also have the right to not stand if they choose so.

Uhhhh ... Big Mak!

Having a bad season can be one reason

they are 3 and 3 which puts them in the hunt. NFL was down 8 to 10 percent last year and another 7 to 10 percent this year. polls have said fans are tired of the politics.

Having watched every minute of the Ravens lose to the Bears, I am confident in declaring that they most definitely are not "in the hunt". And just to clarify, neither team is looking at "winning" anything but a top 10 draft position for next year.

What were you doing?

Is he the commander and chief of the US armed forces?
No?
Then I guess it doesn't matter what he was doing, does it?

Exactly

 

[Turdferguson]

Exactly

It matters what your golden boy Trump was doing

Maybe the NFL should hire some people to bus from game to game just to give the impression that the stadiums are full .

Or do what clinton did during her campaign , can't fill a hall then squeeze everyone into a tight camera shot .

Golden Boy was getting a golden shower from Putin.

Jelly???

I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.

 

[Turdferguson]

I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.

Would you take a dump on him?

 

[MAKAVELI]

Would you take a dump on him?

How about Drumpf, Bannon and a cup?

 

[It will be fine]

1. Most of the games are played at the same time
2. Every politician does that, it's easy to look up, just google "trump empty rally" for his.

Orange boy.

 

[Turdferguson]

Orange boy.

Mine was more majestic and poetic

Those same polls that had Clinton winning the presidency?

I do not believe polls.
