Sports That Kneeling Thing With The NFL

[zephyr 12]

Forgive me for making light of a highly contentious topic, but here goes.

Take your favorite team, and then place bets on who on that team will take a knee during the national anthem.

You know Vegas and Atlantic City are doing it. You just know they are.

I dislike the way the whole thing has taken a political twist, with the president as well sharing his thoughts. The contention notwithstanding, I think you raise a good point. An easier one would be gambling on whether or not the players in a particular team will kneel.

That's awesome! That would be a good bet. We bet on high school teams around here and it would have been a good bet for them too. It won't work too well now because they are making the teams say off of the field until after the anthem now.

If the teams can not stand at the national anthem, they should not be allowed to be on the field. I don't really care what cause they are honoring, it is just not appropriate. These guys are expected to be role models for the kids. What does this teach them?
