They won this but by winning this.. The collusion case if there is any justice and logic in the world...

im not holding my breath

I would think by them enacting this bullshit ass rule it would strengthen the case that there was/is collusion.

Is there anything else the union can do at this point?

No....The NFLPA is softer than baby shit....

 

[Inori]

My question is.... what constitutes being "disrespectful" to the flag - other than not standing for the anthem? How tf is "showing proper respect" even defined?

What if a player is standing but his back is turned? This shit is idiotic

 

[StringerBell]

Racist Whitey declares victory...

 

[Marc123]

imo from a owners stand point the new rule makes sense. if your on the field, you have to stand. If your not gonna stand you have to leave the field. White ppl get upset when they see players kneeling. so maybe outta sight, outta mind. but fuck boy trump will prolly talk shit at a rally or talk shit on twitter bout that. then they are back to square one.

The NFLPA is the biggest joke (as far as player reps) in pro sports.

They have successfully steered the issue.

Now all the players just need to speak out on the issue and leave the kneeling alone.

 

[OnlyBuilt4CubanLinx]

Every black player should leave the field when the national anthem starts seeing black walk off in Unisys would piss white ppl off every time.

*coughs* Jerry Jones,Kraft,Mike Brown & McNair…*coughs*

Not every owner is racist, their businessmen.

Cut that shit out.

This falls in line with that T.I. situation and the cop telling him he arrested him for "acting a fool".

It'll all come down to how they operationally define "disrespecting".

Them leaving it so vague leaves it up for interpretation and harder to enforce without them having stricter language... leaving room for somebody to find a loophole.. which I hope someone does...

Like what even counts as "being on the field"... lol a player could easily NOT be on the field.. not in the locker room either and take a knee within the range of cameras just to make a point
