I do admire Tom Brady's ability, but I can't bring myself to watch professionals paid multi-millions kneel during the National Anthem.

When the MLB players do the same, I'll quit watching them also.

I checked and it seems both teams have "kneelers." If your dogs were in the "Puppy Bowl," I would watch that.

I know. I will go with the East Coast team over a team that can't decide where to land and stay. (Cleveland, L.A., St.L,L.A. again)

And even those are horrible as of the last several years. Most are not even funny. And they are all over the internet and social media a week before the game anyway. It defeats the point.

Aw come on Steve. Controversy is good.
I however am at the point where I don't want my National Anthem played at professional sporting events. The players for the most part don't deserve it. and it would remove a platform/stage for those who want to make a statement.
However, I will be rooting for Tom. I love Patriots haters. Makes me love them more.

Edgar, that’s not the wisest thing I’ve ever heard from you but it’s right up there with all the others. You are after all, a very wise man and I admire your wisdom.

WTF are you talking about? I didn't say a word. You were so obviously blinded by the profundity of George's comment, you forgot who made it.

Why not eliminate it after all we have thrown out the Pledge of Allegiance all to appease a minority of malcontents who don't either understand or appreciate what it stands for and the sacrifices made by hundreds of thousands of veterans many of which gave their lives so these few can display their ignorance in a public forum.
