I hope that the NFL takes a serious hit and it will last for at least two full seasons so that they can get rid of everyone that took a knee. Baseball found out that the people found it hard to support someone on strike that was making an insanely amount of money because they wanted more. NFL take note of what happens if you screw up too much. The NFL has lost me as a fan for good. My unit did not have two soldiers killed (1 black and 1 white) in Afghanistan so that they can inject their own political agenda into sports that people watch and relax.

While I support your stance in most of what you've said, your KIA tie-in at the end was offensive.

How dare you disrespect the sacrifice of those Soldiers, by linking them with YOUR political agenda toward SPORTS! You should be ashamed of yourself. Those Soldiers died in support and defense of the Constitution, on behalf of all U.S. Citizens; not so you and others can wield their deaths as weapons against the citizens they served. While it is your 1st Amendment Right to say what you said, and I will always respect that Right; as a Retiree, I would expect you to have more sense than that.
ANY person who joins the U.S. military is EXACTLY supporting an individual citizen's Right to "inject their own political agenda into sports that people watch and relax," among many other Rights they may or may not agree with; because our oath and loyalty is to the United States Constitution, NOT SPORTS!

This is getting out of control. Politics and sports don't mix. Sports should bring people together not divide us.
