Good to hear. I’m tuning out NFL games for the rest of the season after that display on Sunday. I’ll catch the last 5 minutes of a game, if that. And I’ll watch highlights and read about it. There is plenty to watch on TV besides NFL games.
Football players "take a knee" to demonstrate concern;
Waiting, praying for an injured player 'til they learn
If the guy will be okay or if he's badly hurt
While he's lying there in pain and writhing in the dirt.
They don't kneel in disrespect... The opposite is true.
Now they're worried for our body politic (Me, too!)
With a sitting President who's chosen to attack
Free speech from a former San Fransisco quarterback
I know this is not the place for politics, and yet,
Even Robert Kraft, who is as pro-Trump as you get,
Said he's "deeply disappointed" in the Donald's "tone..."
Judging by the NFL's response, Kraft's not alone.
I was in the military 30 years ago
And don't find it disrespectful when the players show
Their concern by peaceful protest when they "take a knee."
Why that should insult our troops or flag, I cannot see.
