Game check should go to the vets that they dishonor by their action.

i think that along with the national anthem, they should play a slide show on the jumbo tron of some of the guys who have died serving our country. GI's, first responders, etc. let these ungrateful fuggers kneel then.

I said from the beginning, the rule should be "No stand, no play" and if that cost the team a win, too bad. The peer pressure to win would be immense. Your "No stand, no pay" is almost as good. Trouble is, many players could shrug off a game check. But causing a game loss affects them all.

Lifelong Bears fan but I won't watch it while this is allowed in the League.
It's bullschit and they can GFT.
I hosted for Thanksgiving this year and games stayed off.

I have no use for anyone or anything associated with these prima donnas. The league has killed itself. They worship themselves first, then their money. The players and coaches could care less about their fans. They only dress out in pads one day a week for practice because they may get hurt. They pay their commissioner a reported $44M a year to lead the league. What on earth could that man do to be worth that much money per year? Now he is asking for $50M a year. As the fan base declines further, the TV and Ad revenue will decline to increase the downward spiral. All because the league would not stand up for right. Even thug ball (aka NBA), requires its players to stand for the national anthem.

Not watching feels good to us, but it doesn't hurt the players. They still play, they still get paid. The people hurt are the stadium concessionaires, the TV advertisers, and pretty much everybody associated with the game EXCEPT the players who are causing the issue.

Soon all teams will be in the locker room when the singing goes on. This by policy.

I see that Kaepernick was at the 'unthanksgiving' thing on alcatraz yesterday with the Indians. What a POS.

Never watch a game again. Money is the driver. Boycott the sponser's, but by not watching, I don't know who they are :-)

100% boycott forever is a good answer.

Not watching
F the NFL
Bil and sil were fans too. No games on our tv this year
A day of thanks for all this country provides and watch young men that many make more in a few short years than most will in a lifetime show their disrespect to this country?
Thanks but no thanks.
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Yes, it hurts people associated with the NFL. But not the players, who still get paid and played. The boycott hurts thousands of innocent bystanders. Not the offending players.

People associated with the NFL is where money for player's salaries comes from. Following your line of logic, we should cease all trade in embargoes with say North Korea, because it's the leader not the people, right?
