Colts Kneeling

[BE Mike]

I've decided to use my First Amendment Right to quit watching the Colts and all NFL games. I'm so over this disrespect of our national anthem and flag at games. If there are real problems, which I doubt, then the players should be going into neighborhoods to protest with the people who feel like they live as victims in a country that doesn't give them liberty and justice. Maybe someone can explain to this old white man, just what specific factual injustices are being perpetrated upon specific minority groups. I'd like to see some facts, because all I see are slogans, based upon false propaganda and bad "feelings about things". I just might burn my Colt apparel and other overpriced crap. Maybe I'll send the ashes to Irsay.

Soooo, you have doubt base on? Have you attempted to educate yourself on the issues, or do you just simply "feel" that way?

I didn't even turn a game on today. The NFL doesn't even care if they have me as a customer.

 

[Kutnupe14]

I kept the games on all day. Even when I left the house, I made sure the tv was on a game.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

We have 4 tvs in our house and we made sure none of them were on games all day. We beat you 4-1.

Last NFL game I watched was a super bowl a few years back, don't remember, or care, who was playing, but it was the year Prince did the halftime show. Best halftime show EVER!

Oh please.....

You guys are the same guys who won't shop at a place that doesn't respect the 2A I bet as well.... I'm sure their reeeeally missing your business LOL

Did the Colts even play today...???

I asked the same question as the OP in the "Other" thread and have as yet to receive a list of grievances.
Not saying there arent any but I am pretty sure we can all write a solid list if we tried. Of our own grievances.

I am still not sure what exactly (besides Trump) they are really protesting. And I have tried to figure it out. Maybe I am just not that up to speed.....

Other than the Super Bowl I don't watch Pro Football and even then it's more about seeing peeps I don't see everyday rather than the game. I don't see this changing.

We have tickets to next week's game. We've had them for a while, since before this kneeling **** hit the fan. My wife and I have worked hard for what we have so we will be there on he 8th. I will trade my hat with a horseshoe for one with the Hap Arnold Wing and Star, same trend with the shirt.

This is the main thing now...I guess. I'm not watching anymore so they may have respun the story again...I dunno.

Colts kickoff in 5 min... I won’t be watching. Not because of the protests, but because WTHR and Direct TV are in a pissing match.

 

[chezuki]

All Colts are standing for the anthem FYI, so guess you guys not watching for that reason can turn it on...

 

[halfmileharry]

Just showed the Colts .... ALL THE COLTS .... standing arm in arm for the National Anthem.

Yep

 

[churchmouse]

Yep

Yeah I noticed this a few weeks back.

 

[lovemachine]

Colts suck. Football sucks. NFL sucks.

That’s why I won’t be watching.

 

[Arm America]

I will continue to respect our National Anthem in my house, your house or any given location my ears are honored to hear it. It's disgusting to me that some have chosen to vent their grievances in this fashion. Especially in the Lucas Oil Stadium since my tax dollars not only helped build it but continue to maintain it.

 

[tmschuller]

Good for them. Didn't remember they played and don't care. Had 4 grandkids and family over THAT is way better. The NFL can go flip sand down a rat hole.
