Just when I thought the kneeling controversary was being put in the grave, not fully buried, but at least dead it appears to being coming back to life again. The NFL has just thrown out a 1/2 witted policy that would allow those players who didn’t want stand for the national anthem to stay in the locker-room. The sudden change which again allows kneeling during our National Anthem occurrs just as the heart beat of patriots (not the team) for this sport was slowly coming back to life. Patriots who have loved the sport for a lifetime but left as politics entered the arena instead. Even with the 1st change we were not fully committed to watching the game because it was in the rules book that player must respect the National Anthem just as we expect offsides rules should be respected . Now it’s back to zombie football for us, as this league appears to close both eyes to this rule and respect for our nation. The NFL is now a place where zombies live and people continue to run from their stadiums.
