Don't you think the fans assumed they were going to kneel through the anthem? Seems like weak spin.

if kneeling *before the anthem* also gets you boo'ed, doesn't that suggest
that opposition to kneeling was never about the anthem?
Wow, talk about fake news. There are 360,760 shareholders of the Green Bay Packers! The shareholders aren't "owners" and they have no voting rights when it comes to anything regarding the team. It is a symbolic gesture, nothing more. Citing the opinion of 1 out of 360,000 of these people is like calling someone an astronomer because they bought a star on one of those "Own A Star" registries.
Maybe fans should boo what actually happens, not what they think would happen?
I would agree with you, but then I think about what my wife would say about what "I would want to do" and what I would actually do. Aaaand I go back to my previous statement.
And this is why we don't rely on Twitter for... anything.

Yes.
Ain't that some crap?NFL2DF said:
Right on cue.
The team kneels in unity and to protest police brutality, however their demonstration also agreed with what Trump said, keep it out of the anthem. Must be RACIST!!!!!!!!!!
We don't need any new evidence. We have all the evidence we need for a prima facie case with the Obama is a Kenyan birther nonsense.
This will all blow over and in a few weeks people who do watch will be back to watching football. Here in Denver the waiting list is so long for tickets people are all for those giving up their tickets so they can buy them.My favorite so far are the multiple friends on Facebook who have posted several things each ranting about the players kneeling and all swearing they'll never watch another NFL game again...and who I know for a fact have never watched NFL games anyway.
One woman has posted about 15 memes on this bashing the players with about half of them pledging not to watch the NFL. I know with 100% certainty that she hates sports and doesn't watch a bit of the NFL.
It'd be like me promising to never eat liver again in my life.

Exactly, how many of these kneelers are willing to kneel for the GAME, and not get paid. Or better yet donate your salary to the cause.Da Guru said:
You don't know that. Lots of them donate their time and money all the time. Most do more for the people with their free time then Donald Trump ever did.
When are they going to kneel and speak up about all the black on black murders in this country?Joe Bryant said:
Hasn't Kaepernick literally lost his job over this, and still donates a ton of money?
That wont fix anything.
