this thread is about dumb football players being disrespectful to America.
I don't see any reference to that in the title.
So, I suppose, that is just your opinion of Americans exercising their right to Free Speech.

From Quinnipiac, a pollster often cited by his campaign as reliable:
Poll: Majority of voters say Trump isn't fit to be president
"A majority of American voters say Donald Trump is not "fit to serve as president," according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday, with 51 percent of respondents saying they are embarrassed to have Trump serve as president."
"The poll reports that 59 percent say Trump is not honest, 60 percent say he does not have good leadership skills and 61 percent say he does not share their values."
"Overall, 62 percent of voters disapprove of the way the president has handled race relations, 60 percent of voters say Trump is doing more to divide the country than unite it."

Donald Trump: Is it illegal for the US President to delete his tweets?
"The law stipulates that materials can include "books, correspondence, memoranda, documents, papers, pamphlets, works of art, models, pictures, photographs, plats, maps, films, and motion pictures, including, but not limited to, audio and visual records, or other electronic or mechanical recordations, whether in analog, digital, or any other form".
"And "presidential records" are defined as those "created or received by the president, the president's immediate staff, or a unit or individual of the executive office of the president whose function is to advise or assist the president".
"The law also means that any tweets sent by the president are owned by the United States."

Sean Spicer Says President Trump Considers His Tweets 'Official' White House Statements
"When asked at a press briefing whether Trump's tweets qualify as official statements on behalf of the White House, Spicer said that he "is the President of the United States, so they're considered official statements by the President of the United States."

The man-child and occupier of the White House now in his bully pulpit, tries to avenge his rejection:
Donald Trump’s NFL war follows a history of rejection:
FOR 30 years, Donald Trump was denied entry to an exclusive billionaires’ club.
"A story that not many people would know about the president is that he has tried, and failed, many times in the past to join the elusive ranks of NFL owners."
"His desire to join the NFL began in the early 1980s with the now defunct United States Football League, a competition that originally ran during the NFL’s off-season."
"NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle couldn’t have been any more unequivocal in his stance on the high-flying businessman, telling Trump at a meeting in New York in 1984: “You will never be an owner in the NFL. As long as I’m affiliated with the NFL or my family is affiliated with the NFL, you will never have a team in the NFL.”
"While others may be able to let your insensitive and denigrating comments pass, I no longer will"
(Traits the occupier of the White House holds to this very day)
Read on for a scathing commentary directed at the inept one:
And a grand example of the occupier's business acumen:

I have a lot of coaching friends in the NFL who stay in touch. White or black makes little difference. Football players aren't too bright. About the only good thing one can say about their intelligence is when compared to soccer, rugby or Australian football players.
Along with your insulting response to the athletes, just another pitiful deflection.

IRONY WARNING!
Have all the Trump supporters and those who think the NFL are being really bad (and how ratings and viewings will be effected) noticed that after participating in this thread, where ever you are going on the net you are now hit by NFL advertising from google! The NFL have never had it so good. You couldn't make this stuff up. Who watched NFL until now -oh only diehard football supporters that will NOT stop watching, and now I am ready to tune in and watch to see what the players do next to get Trump in a tweet storm. Ratings are rocketing! The Rocketman of ratings for the NFL - Trump!
Well, the occupier of the White House is renowned for shooting himself in the foot.
Heck, he'll probably even attempt to take credit for the increased viewership. Believe me.
Stand by:
Because he has more flip-flops than a Jimmy Buffet concert.

DID JARED KUSHNER’S DATA OPERATION HELP SELECT FACEBOOK TARGETS FOR THE RUSSIANS?
“I called somebody who works for one of the technology companies that I work with, and I had them give me a tutorial on how to use Facebook micro-targeting,” Kushner told Steven Bertoni of Forbes."
“We brought in Cambridge Analytica."
"And I asked them how to scale this stuff . . . We basically had to build a $400 million operation, with 1,500 people operating in 50 states.”

Cambridge Analytica
"Cambridge Analytica (CA) is a privately held company that combines data mining and data analysis with strategic communication for the electoral process."
"On May 18, 2017, Time Magazine reported that the US Congress is investigating CA in connection with Russian attempts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election."
"The report alleges that CA may have coordinated the spread of Russian propaganda using its microtargetting capabilities."
Robert Mercer is a major investor in Cambridge Analytica, and principal financier of Breitbart News and Steve Bannon,
vice president of Cambridge Analytica until he joined the Trump campaign:

Russians May Have Used Facebook to Push Pro-Trump Rallies During 2016 Election
"In an explosive new report, news site The Daily Beast says Facebook accounts believed to have been operated by Russian propagandists tried to rally Floridians for a "Florida Goes Trump!" effort; Trump supporters were asked to start a "patriotic state-wide flash mob" in the 17 cities"
“On August 20, we want to gather patriots on the streets of Floridian towns and cities and march to unite America and support Donald Trump!" an event page supporting the effort said, according to The Daily Beast."
"The account was ultimately taken down in August 2017, at the same time Facebook removed accounts believed to have been operated by Russia's Internet Research Agency."

To take a knee during my countries Anthem is the same as disrespecting my flag and country
Your country's anthem?
Quite a deplorable history behind it.
Perhaps that's why some so fervently defend it...
During his lifetime, abolitionists ridiculed Key’s words,
sneering that America was more like the “Land of the Free and Home of the Oppressed”
"In 1814, Key was a slaveholding lawyer from an old Maryland plantation family,
who thanks to a system of human bondage had grown rich and powerful."
"When he wrote the poem that would, in 1931, become the national anthem and proclaim our nation “the land of the free,”
like Jefferson, Key not only profited from slaves, he harbored racist conceptions of American citizenship and human potential."
"Africans in America, he said, were: “a distinct and inferior race of people,
which all experience proves to be the greatest evil that afflicts a community.”
This tome to oppression written by a fanatical racist should be banned from anywhere.
That the acolytes wrap themselves in it, is reprehensible.
And an absolute display of ignorance.

It's the perfect deflection from the fact owners have for years, covered for players who commit violent acts against women, and other acts that present a danger to the public, and cover for players using PEDs, players ho routinely deliver headshot to opponents, and then the owners denied players have CTE, and to boost the sagging TV ratings that resulted from the previous.
It's a massive marketing ploy.
Talk about "perfect deflection"
You've crafted quite a remarkable pile right there. ^^^

"President Donald Trump told Texans bailing themselves out from Hurricane Harvey's floods that the storm, which caused the most extreme rainstorm on record, was an unprecedented event. And when Hurricane Irma ramped up to a Category 5 monster in the Atlantic, Trump tweeted that the storm "Looks like the largest ever recorded in the Atlantic!" ...
... Yet when a reporter asked Trump on Thursday whether the two hurricanes, which were aided by warming ocean and air temperatures, as well as added moisture in the air, have caused him to reevaluate his views on climate change, Trump directly contradicted himself...... "Well, we've had bigger storms than this," Trump said while on board Air Force One en route to Washington, after viewing the damage from Hurricane Irma, which hit the Florida Keys as a Category 4 storm, in southwest Florida. "And if you go back into the 1930s and the 1940s, and you take a look, we've had storms over the years that have been bigger than this," he said."

Taxes? He is getting IRS info so he can go back 10 years and threaten someone to give him something damaging about Trump. He will never get anything about the election and Russia because they didn't spend enough to make it credible so He'll have to go after something else they we all don't know about yet. That is why he is fishing with the IRS.
Just making stuff up.
And today's installment of trying to derail the thread with meaningless, gibberish irrelevant to the topic.
Are you going to attempt to top your bizarre assertions of yesterday? :
Your unsubstantiated claims as the reasons for the protesters kneeling in silence :
"scapegoats, coups, to show disrespect to the electoral process that got Trump elected and not Hillary,
firm statement about not liking democracy, and Black people are opportunistic"
Which went off on rambling diatribes about Nazis, embargoes, the invasion of Poland, the of start WWII, The War Production Board, Pearl Harbor, Japan, and War.
And your still unexplained scenario that you presented as fact?
You claim you heard in "interviews with the players" that you "listened to" that they had said:
