Multiple Baltimore Ravens and Jacksonville Jaguars players knelt on Sunday during the playing of the national anthem at the first NFL game since President Trump called for players who take a knee to be fired.

Video and photos posted to Twitter shows players kneeling and locking arms as the anthem played.

Trump has faced backlash in recent days from after calling on NFL owners to fire players who kneel during the national anthem.

"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a b---- off the field right now,'" Trump said at a rally in Alabama on Friday. "'He is fired.'"

Trump’s comments brought rebukes against Trump from multiple NFL players, the head of the NFL players’ union and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, who called Trump’s comments “divisive” and said they showed a “lack of respect for the NFL.”

Several NFL executives have also spoken out against Trump and reaffirmed their players’ rights to peacefully protest.

But Trump on Sunday doubled down on his comments, calling for players to be fired or suspended for not standing during the national anthem and hitting the NFL for not telling players to stand.
If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag & Country, you will see change take place fast. Fire or suspend!

...NFL attendance and ratings are WAY DOWN. Boring games yes, but many stay away because they love our country. League should back U.S.

Poster Comment:



I did my best to get those Twitter pics to show here.

Notice that "Shad Khan" (what a cute nickname), the Jaguars owner is a Paki immigrant and Sunni Muslim who joined his team in publicly disrespecting our country.

Notice that they traveled overseas to disrespect our flag and anthem. But both teams stood for the British anthem!

Trump should just ignore the matter completely. It's purely a private NFL matter.

I disagree. He should rub their noses in it. Their cause is a load of shit. Let them attack America then they define themselves as the bad guys. It is the American's vs the anything but American's.

He [Donald J. Trump] should rub their noses in it.

POTUS doesn't control the private markets; in fact, since Trump stuck his nose in non-government issues strongly suggests that he has a serious problem with his own perspective about his "JOB." What do you want a fascist government?

Why doesn't Trump just go ask Congress to make another LAW and give him further unconstitutional power that he would be happy to sign into the USC? Would that make you "feel" better?

How does Trump consider the US Constitution when he forces his personal BULLSHIT on other world powers and even the US citizenry without Congress or the Supreme Court?

US Army Ranger only one to come out for anthem.

Steelers don't participate in national anthem, with exception of ex-Ranger Alejandro Villanueva

US Army Ranger only one to come out for anthem.

I looked into this one more. I saw it reported that the young black coach of the Steelers, Mike Tomlin, was on the field with some other coaches (but nowhere near Villaneuve).

I noticed that ABC initially reported that all the Steelers stayed in the locker room. Obviously a lie and a deliberate lie at that.

Then ABC switched around and tried to pretend that the Steelers QB came out once the anthem had started. Well, it looked like he came out leading the team only after the last words of the anthem were sung. So, another deliberate lie, I think.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' coach Mike Tomlin decided to skip the anthem altogether today.

"We're not participating in the anthem today," Tomlin said, adding that the action was "not to be disrespectful to the anthem" but to remove the team "from this circumstance."

"People shouldn't have to choose" whether to kneel or stand during the anthem, he said. "If a guy feels a need to do something he should not be separated from his teammate who chooses not to."

"So we're not participating today," he said. "That's our decision."

At Soldier Field, Coach Tomlin was spotted with other coaches on the sideline, but most of the players remained in the locker room as expected.

Once the national anthem commenced, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger walked out of the tunnel, as did left tackle Alejandro Villanueva, who served as an Army ranger in Afghanistan. He held a hand over his heart as he marched onto the field.

With all the arm-linking and statements about "supporting their teammates" (including some shameless pandering by Tom Brady), where were the Steelers supporting their teammate Villaneuve who had served multiple tours in Af-Pak?

And then ABC shamelessly lied about the whole event. You know, because those football fans are just too damned stupid to notice all their lies anyway.

Tomlin gave this answer on the Steelers sitting it out post-game:

Well a rookie catcher on the cellar dwelling Oakland A's was the first baseball player to take a knee.

A’s Bruce Maxwell first MLB player to kneel for anthem

A terrible team and insignificant rookie.
