As evidenced by the comments online, most who viewed the picture saw that as a gesture of protest, not being submissive or bowing to The Man.
I think I would need to hear from some other murderers first before making a judgement here...
Incredible misuse of time and money. You could throw watermelons at a bus passing 2 miles away and have more success.
In 2016, Kaep had a 16-4 TD to INT ratio of 4.0, 7th best among QBs, ahead of Brees, Stafford, Cousins and Big Ben.
As was noted several times in this thread, those polls had methodology issues or drew misleading conclusions. There has been a drop in NFL viewership but no one has really proven that it was because of the anthem protests (or if it was the percentage is really small).
National anthem protests were the top reason that NFL fans watched fewer games last season, according to a new survey released by J.D. Power.
jon_mx that was not a new survey. Of course you would not be truthful about this, it was from June of 2017.
I was cutting and pasting. You said there was no proof. I posted three studies from three reliable polling groups which prove otherwise. Your denial is epic.
Can you read? I did not say anything. I cut and pasted portions of three articles to disprove your absurd statement.. You are such a little weasel who can't handle facts and throws out attacks and then run to the mods when things don't go your way. So pathetic.squistion said:
A lot of those people, or at least the few I know who say they stopped watching, had buddies who died fighting for that flag that is being disrespected. Not a snowflake in my book.
It was black people trying to peacefully protest the fact that many innocent people were getting killed by law enforcement. Was not disrespecting the military. It was not disrespecting the flag. That was an excuse people came up with to hide their blatant racism.
Hey Scooter, weren't you the one throwing a tantrum about nicknames for people?squistion said:
Average QB, at best, who is now a year removed from the game and has a lawsuit against the NFL. Zero chance.
Once again, there is no actual proof of that. TV ratings were down the year before he started the kneeling protest (how do you account for that?) but it has yet to be shown, outside of some dubious studies, that people in significant numbers have been tuning out related to him or the other players who are protesting.
There's say that there is "no proof" that Kaepernick is bad for business YET....you swear that there is absolute proof of Trump's collusion, election tampering, and obstruction of justice even though not a single shred of evidence has been exposed to support your beliefs (hopes) in a year-and-a-half of digging! Yep....move along...no bias here!
calling it dubious does not make it so. JD Power, UBS, and Seton Hall are all reliable and unbiased organizations and each one concluded based upon surveys of thousands of people that these protests is the number 1 cause of people turning off the NFL. Personal attacks and baseless assertions don't change the facts of what the research conclusively shows.
I have never sworn that, we have not seen what Mueller has yet so there is no evidence out there that we can literally point to. However, a pretty good case can be made for obstruction with Trump's own words to Lester Holt and the Russian diplomats as to why he fired Comey.There's say that there is "no proof" that Kaepernick is bad for business YET....you swear that there is absolute proof of Trump's collusion, election tampering, and obstruction of justice even though not a single shred of evidence has been exposed to support your beliefs (hopes) in a year-and-a-half of digging!

I know you consider JD Power polls gospel but their poll findings on declining viewership being tied to the protests was misleading and had methodology issues which has been well documented. And an online voluntary poll is by nature of dubious validity. From just one article.
I did not claim any of the pollsters were gospel. What I said was all three pollsters are reliable and unbiased. Your claim there is no evidence is total bunk. There is plenty of evidence, you just choose to dismiss it because it does not fit your worldview and instead you resort to your childish tactics. That is on you and not me. I proved you wrong.
It. Was. An. Online. Poll. Do you also think a voluntary online poll like Drudge does is gospel? A JD Power online poll has no more validity. You proved nothing.
It was three polls. You keep ignoring facts. Taken together that is substantial proof by any measure.
The other polls have no more validity than the JD Power voluntary online poll you swear by and think is gospel.
Why do you always lie. I never said anything was gospel. You think Senton Hall is in the tank for the NFL? Three independent unbiased polls, three results which place the primary blame on the protests. All polls are flawed, but they are still a very good indication of the truth.
