Nothing whatsoever. Police brutality, racism and the national anthem went out the window and ended up on the trash heap of history once Trump made his comments and the players did what they did yesterday. Now we have the moneyed elite vs. each other. The million dollar players along with most of the billionaire owners in the NFL vs. a president who happens to be another billionaire.
Let the games begin, let's see which of these moneyed elites ends up on top.
I think the NFL and the players will take a hit. Most of the lefties who agree with all this taking a knee stuff either already support it or aren't going to start watching football games because of it. On the other hand, some of those who are really turned off by it will quit watching football. In other words, they will gain the verbal support of the left with no increase in football watching from that side while they will take a hit from those who had been watching but will no more. Bottom line, the NFL and it's players who were already taking a hit in the ratings, will see more financial losses and the NFL is all about money. It's a business.
