I guess I'm that certain type of person cause I don't want to hear or see it on Sundays. If I did I would watch Face the Nation or some other talking heads show instead of the game...

Who’s forcing you to watch and listen to their opinions? How about you just focus on the game. Last time I checked, there are no politics being talked about, by the players, when the players are on the field and the game is going.

Yup.....it baffles me that these guys will take about all the racial injustice going on but they do nothing about it. All of this started with Kaepernick and that fucking moron does not even vote.

Instead, there are plenty of players, including Kaep, who are spending millions of dollars on social issues. You probably didn’t know because Fox News didn’t report it.

What the players don't seem to grasp is that nobody gives a fuck about their rights, opinions or feelings. They care about their own rights, opinions and feelings. If they pay their 5 bucks (Cleveland Browns) then play the game, don't suck at it and STFU. Buncha whining pussies. You'd think you were soccer players or something.

No, let’s be specific here. There are certain type of people who don’t give a damn about certain issues and we all know who they are.

Yes, Bidwill is well within his right to comment on anything he damn well chooses.

If any of the players would like to buy a team and go on a conservative talk show and tell the players to mind their politics while on the job, then they are free to speak as well.

What are you talking about? Who said anything about rights? If you are going to reply to my comments, please stay on topic.

They're getting mad, because he has the nerve to have a different opinion than theirs. Stupid!

You mean, how yall get mad at the players because you don’t agree with their opinions on these issues?

I have already tuned out all but Eagles games but if if they keep it up I'll be without a team. Go Phillies.
Like someone else stated, STFU and just play football or quit and actually work for a living.

And zero fucks were giving from the Eagles about what you said.

Dumbass, it is more than appropriate for him to comment. Does that synonym suit your little sensibilities now?

Once again, you missed the whole point. Just shut up!

This is why they will win the grievance.

Owners can't change working condition terms or add penalties for where they did not exist before without bargaining with the Union.

#UNIONSTRONG!

This is true...if it goes to arbitration...the union will likely win this one...my issue is they have bigger issues to fight for. The union is cherry picking a battle here...the equilvilant of being penny wise and dollar stupid imo.

The commish powers will be front and center in the new CBA in a few years regardless of the outcome of this battle.

Just like politicians!

Just like America...I got mine, you go get yours...that's actually okay imo assuming the opportunity to "go get yours" exists.

The point of that is...the players continually vote in union leadership that may have the best interest of the game at heart but not the expertise in negotiations to accomplish it.

Players that make the really big money...they're not going to trust their contract situation with a Gene Upshaw because he played the game...they get experienced negotiators to get the job done.

The rich players don't want the young players to take their money.

It's the same problem in every controlled market.

Yep, just like in most things the middle class got squeezed out so the young players are trapped in long term contracts and only the great ones get that 2nd big money contract

So you're saying the NFLPA needs Trump to lead them.

Well that's a great idea and all, but I really don't think they're smart enough.

Yeah, he did great with his last football league.

This is a simple matter of "which hill do you wanna die on?" And die on a hill the NFLPA will do

This is such a freaking joke. It kind of demonstrates out how of touch these guys are with reality. Much like actors and musicians, I don't give a rat's ass who you endorse for political office. I am intelligent enough to make my own decisions.

I don't care about an offensive tackle's social justice agenda, as faux as it probably is. Shut it and play
