An estimated 200 players knelt during the protests this weekend, some joined by team owners. Others, such as the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks, simply didn't come out of their locker rooms for the anthem.
When the Baltimore Ravens and Jacksonville Jaguars played over the weekend in London, they protested there too. Yet, as Nate Jackson of the Patriot Post reminds us, "they stood for the U.K.'s anthem, 'God Save the Queen.' God save the one who can't see why that's outrageous."
The NFL's official response was pathetically tone-deaf and could have been written by the NFL players union. Heck, maybe it was.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell castigated Trump for his "divisive comments" and "an unfortunate lack of respect for the NFL."
I know he's not talking about this person:
(One notable exception: Steelers lineman Alejandro Villanueva, a West Point grad and former Army Ranger, who stood alone at attention during the anthem, and was criticized by his coach for it.)$1:
Lack of respect for the NFL? What about respect for the nation's flag and its anthem, and for those who died defending them and what they stand for? What about respect for your own fans, many of whom still believe that America, though not perfect, is the greatest country on Earth? It's no wonder that many of the protests were met with a chorus of boos.
NFL to Fans: Drop Dead
