With the return of professional football’s regular season, we have a return to the turmoil and debate that has been injected into the game over protests staged by some players during the singing of our National Anthem.
To broaden the topic for a moment, perhaps we should not be surprised. We live in a time when divisive political ideology has infected most every area of our lives. We see it in religion, education, finances, entertainment, and even in our choice of the foods we consume. As a society it has come to the point where there is little left that a person can do that isn’t interpreted by some group as a political statement. This is a recipe for a society descending into turmoil with all the implications that involves.

That’s why I stopped watching ESPN 4 years ago!
The hell with all hose overpaid rich cry babies
Ban espn
They should be taken off the team!!!!!!
I am still not watching. I guess ESPN panties are in a bunch with nobody giving a c**p what they say since nobody is watching.
Boycott NFL
What can you expect from ESPN? After all they gave Bruce an award for wearing a dress!
I don’t watch ESPN or watch the games because there is no respect for the men and women who gave their lives so these so-called super jocks the opportunity to make their megabucks.m
Donna Kies Donna Trump may grab yours too …..
Donna Kies “No principled, Christian conservative can justify backing a thrice married, serial philander who essentially confessed to sex crimes. However, this race was never about principle. It was never about Republican themes like small government, personal responsibility or family values. From the start, Trump’s campaign has been predicated on sexism (and ethno-nationalistic racism). It is and always has been about white male resentment and anguish.”
