Donald Trump: Roger Goodell ‘Lost Control’ of the NFL

President Donald Trump continued his criticism of NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, pointing out another player who refused to stand during the national anthem.

“Can you believe that the disrespect for our Country, our Flag, our Anthem continues without penalty to the players,” Trump said. “The Commissioner has lost control of the hemorrhaging league. Players are the boss!”

Trump highlighted a Breitbart News story about New York Giants defensive lineman Olivier Vernon taking a knee during a Thanksgiving game – while a Master Sergeant of the United States Army sang the anthem.

I went to NFL to see pro ball, not politics. I turned the politics channels off to see football. The players have ruined the game, and I have not watched since, been to a sports bar that carries it, ordered PapaJohns or Anheuser-Busch.

So far, Nascar and the other sports satisfy my breakaway from politics, so I continue that.

Goodbye, Goodelle!

No NFL for me. I would rather watch a H.s. football game where they have heart.

See them bow down for the National Anthem and take a knee. AMERICANS stand tall and proud with their hands over their hearts. AMERICANS LOVE this country. While this group HATES this country. God Bless America !!! God Bless our Federal, State and Local Police, God Bless our Veterans !!! God Bless our Doctor, Nurses and ALL our First responders !!!
Boycott !!! Boycott ASAP !!!Ray!!!

When the NFL loses so much money the players are now losing income, maybe they will get it. Someone should beat the hell out of Kapersuck.

Said this before:

1) Fire Goodell
2) Hire Condi Rice, a football fan who would love the job and bring respect back
3) Respect flag and anthem as league policy
4) Play ball

Not that difficult.

Who cares anymore, the NFL sucks!! The quality of football is no more. Just a bunch of hood rats competing to come up with the dumbest touchdown celebration. Gronk's latest interview summed up the intelligence of today's NFL players, duh give me 'DA ball coach
