ORIGINAL: kdsub I am not going to be a hypocrite just because Trump continues to cheapen the standing of the office of the Presidency. Some things are just wrong...and in doing them the message that is sent is opposite of what is intended. If I were an owner I would not fire those that refuse to respect the flag...but I would tell them from now on they will fire themselves if they do not show the proper respect on my team... up to them. What I would do is encourage them to support their causes on their own time and if it is a cause I could get behind I'd be happy to stand with them. Butch If they want to support this cause they can do so off the field and out of uniform. Keep in mind that a year ago the NFL wouldn't let the Cowboys do anything to honor the 5 officers who were murdered at the BLM rally. They said that nobody could do anything political at a game without permission from the league so does that mean the league has given permission to do this or that they will enforce the rules if you want to honor murdered cops but turn their backs and won't enforce anti cop demonstrations.
