Today, NFL owners passed a rule that could not be more cowardly. Their out of sight, out of mind - shut up and play - approach completely misses the point.
And then to effectively incentivize teams to punish those who dare come onto the field and protest ... by threatening them with heavy fines ..., is disgraceful, shameful and pathetic.
I've never seen such a whiny group of crybaby, cupcakes as these NFL owners and their fans.
Compelling allegiance or patriotism is meaningless. Meaning comes from it wanting to be done voluntarily. And, it is not un-American for some Americans to not have their heart in it when they feel their race, gender, sexuality, religion, etc. is being attacked by the nation they are a citizen of.
Lastly, the owners are sending a very bad message to the bully in the White House, who will be further emboldened to intimidate people into doing things his way ... or else. Very sad state of affairs.
