NFL Player To Fans: If You Don't Like My Kneeling, Don't Come To Game

‘Do you realize, Olivier Vernon, that you do not make the money unless the fans do come and buy the tickets and buy your jersey?’ said ESPN commentator

New York Giants defensive end Olivier Vernon ignited an outcry after telling fans if they don’t approve of his decision to kneel for the national anthem, “don’t come to the game.”

The retort came after Vernon, the only member of the Giants still regularly taking a knee, told reporters that he had been heckled by fans in response to his season-long protest.

“You hear ‘coward’ and ‘stand up’ and ‘disgrace,’” Vernon said. “It’s fine. As long as nobody comes on the field and touches me. You stay where you at, you’re going to be all right. They have a right. Oh yeah, I hear it all the time. If they don’t like it, don’t come to the game.”

This character obviously never took a course in "Economics." Guess he has to learn the hard way that actions speak more than words... If you are scratching your crotch, don't tell me you are scratching you foot.

Today:

Giants GM - fired

Giants Coach - fired

Phone call to kneeling Vernon - 'Coach wants to see you. Bring your playbook.' One can always hope, no?

The NFL, or whatever you want to call it, continues to make a mockery of this flag, our anthem and our country. All the while making fools of themselves. President Trump will still be here when you are no longer here and hopefully broke.

You and your players are nothing to me, and your opinions even less.

I will honor your request and not go to a single game, nor watch a single game.

How do you like THEM apples?
