OT UPDATE 7/20 Miami Dolphins New National Anthem Policy - POS Ross now says he may not do anything

That’s BS because i see so many fans sitting down and matter factly on their phones, in the bathroom or at the concession stand during the anthem. I’m all for respect and if it’s truly about the flag...THEN EVERYONE NEEDS TO STAND AT ATTENTION, INCLUDING FANS!
I don't disagree... Everyone should stand!

Good ! As an American and season ticket holder , I feel very disrespected and uncomfortable seeing these millionaire players kneel down.

I forget the player's name but some guy with the Carolina Panthers (a DT?) said publicly he will continue to kneel during the anthem even if the policy forbids it.

Go Canes!
Then they should continue penalizing him , sooner or later he'll come to reality. He just wants to impose his will , but when his pocket starts hurting his pride will give in.
 
Yes i just saw that. I am so sick of this crap. You cannot do whatever you want at work. It as simple as that. If they are at their kids game and they want to sit down in the stands during the Anthem fine but they are at work. Bunch of A Holes.
Get over you don't like it andthey don't like what's going on in society they should protest the fact our judicial system is racist and bias.towards minorities.. by the way military fights for this country not those donut eating trigger happy cops
 
Wow, didn't realize how many people think NFL games are their safe space where they should be free from offense.
 
Most of Miami’s population come from a Country where there is real social injustice . They know the difference . You don’t come into town wearing a Che Guevara tee shirt and praise Castro’s “educational system” and expect any sympathy do you? If you don’t want stand for the flag , play in the Canadian Football League......

You do if you’re fuktarded
 
Maybe the owners will put it in the CBA so they actually do have a right. And fans have rights, too. They can stand, kneel or do what they want during the anthem. But you don't have a right to prohibit others from offending your delicate sensibilities.
whether they dress and go to roll call before the day starts. Thank you for being concerned about my sensibilities and, despite that, reminding me that even we “sensitive ones” have a right to an opinion like the men playing a boys game for millions of dollars that would like to policies sport.
 
Figured you would like that! What happened to freedom of expression especially when you have a Nazi wanna be as president!
Stop
With the agenda that our president is a Nazi. There is a place and time to protest and it is not on the job it is no coincidence that the ratings are down and will keep going down they want to protest do it i the off season when you have plenty of time by the way our nation is i a much better situation than it was under the socialist Obama

No, you're the asshole...in America its ok to have 1st amendment rights unless you're a minority of course...if U want to stand for the anthem stand your a** up...if U don't want to, U HAVE THAT RIGHT...PERIOD!
 
A lot of yah need to get a life...last I checked I don't watch any sport because I want to see athletes stand for some anthem...I watch football to see some hit stick bust d**k, PERIOD!
 
Our flag stands for more than those who served our country. It is supposed to represent freedom, equality, and the right to have an opinion contrary to the masses. Protesting during the anthem and supporting our war veterans are not mutually exclusive positions. Walk in another person’s shoes before you condemn based on your viewpoint of the world or what you believe their actions represent.
LIKE THE POLICE YOU SUPPORTED FOR EIGHT YEARS? WHOPPS DID NOT SUPPORT. GUILTY OF WRONG DOING BEFORE EVIDENCE WAS PRESENTED! FAKE BS!

Ross said that the “one-line sentence” regarding the team’s anthem policy that leaked Thursday “was a placeholder” because the league wanted the team’s rule at the start of training camp but “we haven’t made a decision on what we would do, if anything at that point.”

Ross went on to say that he is “pleased” that the NFL decided late Thursday to suspended its anthem policy as the league tries to work out a new one with the NFLPA. Added Ross: “I am passionate about social justice and through the Miami Dolphins of RISE (his anti-racism initiative), will continue to use the power of sports to improve race relations and drive social progress

The first amendment does not apply to private business.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

I can open a restaurant and call it "silent" and have a policy that if you speak one word you are kicked out.

Also, the rule that the NFL put out was that IF a player is on the field for the anthem they have to stand. They still gave the option for the player to stay in the locker room. They weren't forcing any player to be on the field AND stand.

The only issue I have with the protests is that fans pay to attend the games or elect to spend their time watching on TV (which leads to the insane TV rights deals). The fan is allowing the players to make millions playing a game. The vast majority of fans want to see a football game, not a political protest. If they wanted politics they'd watch cable news instead of football.

If a player wants to bring attention to the issue, how about be prepared with an example of injustice and during the post game interview, tell the story. It will get publicity and not have the divisive effect of kneeling during the national anthem.

At this point, the whole debate has become about the players and the anthem and nobody is paying attention to the issue that was at the heart of the protests. People argue for or against kneeling and nobody is having their eyes opened to injustice.

What about the wife or husband that serve in the armed forces and still have to witness their spouses and family deal with racism, police brutality, and other social injustices. They are fighting for America and still being treated like second class citizens.

It’s POS people like yourself who lack awareness and empathy but are the first to get on your soapbox. GTFOH!!!

Hey DUMBFUK !!! Get out into the real world. Not sure what type of work you do or from the look of things, you might be stuck working at a 711 so not sure who you surround yourself with. I work with A TON of ex military men and women and I can tell you that the numbers are 100000 % against this and they feel DISRESPECTED.

If you cannot comprehend what Im trying to say, then that speak volumes of your intelligence. I support and understand why they are trying to do but I 100% oppose shitting on the flag while doing that and if you can't get that through your little midget brain, then theres nothing I can do to make this easy to understand.

Theres a 100000000 ways to protest and if you chose to shit on the flag while trying to get your point across, then get the FUK out of the USA. YOU POS !!!

They aren't disrespecting the widow or the flag. That's faux right wing outrage. Since when has taking a knee meant disrespect? People kneel in respect to God every Sunday.

Fact is, because of the amount of respect they have for the principles of this country, they are protesting during the anthem because they do not believe the country is living up to its principles.

Not sure what type of work you do but Im a Fireman and I can't tell you that I work with over 200 ex military in our department and I can tell you THEY ALL FEEL the same way. Saying this is "faux right wing outrage" is BS. Thats the problem, everyone wants to add politics to this and it as simple as HAVING RESPECT FOR THIS COUNTRY AND STANDING for the American flag. That simple !!

If you want to protest, pick another way to do it but don't shit on other people while trying to get your point across. Sorry not trying to sound like an old cliche but "Two wrongs don't make a right". All this bullshit movement has done is create more hatred, racism and division.
