NFL owners are expected to meet with league executives this week to further discuss the issue of national anthem protests, and the goal is to provide players with different avenues for raising awareness on social issues rather than political demonstrations during the anthem. Jason La Canfora...

Big surprise. What I didn't know was the fellow NFL owners tried to BLOCK HIM from buying the team. Yeah, that's a surprise. And I'm from Jacksonville. I thought MONEY always preceded someone into a room. NFL’s only Muslim owner spills the beans on his colleagues: ’85-year-old guys who...

The democrats and unions have ruined the NFL. The democrats disrespect for this country and the Player unions supporting far left organizations has told the fans they no longer matter Shock poll: NFL now least liked sport, core fans down 31%

With so many teams refusing to take a kneel today it shows that they can't stand up to Trump. I guess they were tired of being called unpatriotic and hating the Flag, and disrespecting our military. (all of which is correct). Trump told them to stand and most of them did. Either that...

I don't foresee any permanent fallout or damage from this given that Americans are just too damn devoted to their games and will continue to be. Trump may want to dictate new rules about what players do while out on the field during the playing of the National Anthem but tough cookies. I don't...

Thank You Marie! "The widow of Pat Tillman — the NFL player-turned U.S. Army Ranger killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan in 2004 — is pushing back against a retweet by President Trump that included an image of her late husband with the hashtags #StandForOurAnthem and #BoycottNFL." Her...

It’s safe to say the entire world of the NFL went nuts with players protesting police violence by taking a knee. It’s also safe to say that the alt-right has used this as an opportunity to turn it into their own political agenda. It’s safe to say “stick to sports” and I understand as sports...

Many noted American celebrities are pouncing on Trump for his position on this matter. It does serve to remind people of their right to express themselves as they so desire rather than be stymied into thinking the way others would like for them to. After all, kneeling is a great symbolic gesture...

I was raised in JAX (well just outside). It is conservative, to resurrect an old phrase, "redneck" (a good portion, not the majority), was for decades a 'sleepy town'. It has a center population that is decidedly black wrung by burbs of white. I honestly don't know much about this NFL owner...
