New NFL National Anthem Policy

Recommended Posts

POLICY STATEMENT

The 32 member clubs of the National Football League have reaffirmed their strong commitment to work alongside our players to strengthen our communities and advance social justice. The unique platform that we have created is unprecedented in its scope, and will provide extraordinary resources in support of programs to promote positive social change in our communities.

The membership also strongly believes that:

1. All team and league personnel on the field shall stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem.

2.The Game Operations Manual will be revised to remove the requirement that all players be on the field for the Anthem.

3. Personnel who choose not to stand for the Anthem may stay in the locker room or in a similar location off the field until after the Anthem has been performed.

4. A club will be fined by the League if its personnel are on the field and do not stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem.

5. Each club may develop its own work rules, consistent with the above principles, regarding its personnel who do not stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem.

6. The Commissioner will impose appropriate discipline on league personnel who do not stand and show respect for the flag and the Anthem.

This is a reasonable policy

 

Agreed

 

You'll have some militants that choose to kneel and if I were the head coach, you'd sit out that game too, without pay.

Sounds good to me. Leave the America haters in the locker room. Make them mop the bathroom while they're there.

Does this open up the door for a Kaep signing?

 

He doesn't really want to play anymore and never did

Now I really wouldn't want him on my team. No black player will leave the lockerroom for the anthem with him around.

TV ratings should go up now right?

 

 

Should get a bump just from all the people tuning in to see who's not on the sideline.

Maybe they'll put a Starbucks in every stadium so the players have somewhere to sit during the anthem.

Nah.

 

Now all the SJW-tards will boycott because the NFL is literally Hitler. Demanding blacks to stand up and worship whitey's flag and anthem.

It's amazing they haven't caught on that they are still working on a field for their owners.

This policy is a cop out, a joke. The game will suck even more this year with the stupid rule changes.

Yes. Even more so with this change.

Owners saw the ratings going down and they knew why, unlike the lefty crybabys who couldn't handle the truth.
