“Could it be even remotely possible that in Roger Goodell’s rather interesting statement of peace and reconciliation, he was intimating that it would now be O.K. for the players to KNEEL, or not to stand, for the National Anthem, thereby disrespecting our Country & our Flag?”

Will the 32 owners … back their commissioner’s words when 15 players on some team choose to kneel during the anthem this year? And make no mistake — that’s coming.”
