This is a short yet interesting perspective about the NFL's

attendance problem and why fans turned away.

Interesting… No ambiguity here!

NFL History…history not often reported or leaked to the ticket holders.

I hope this helps you; it opened my eyes, to understand just when the

public’s respect for the NFL organization started to crumble….

• In 2012 the NFL had an issue with Tim Tebow kneeling for each game to

pray, they also had an issue with Tebow wearing John 3:16 as part of his

eye-black to avoid glare, and made him take it off.

• In 2013 the NFL fined Brandon Marshall for wearing green cleats to raise

awareness for people with mental health disorders.

• In 2014 Robert Griffin III (RG3) entered a post-game press conference

wearing a shirt that said "Know Jesus Know Peace" but was forced to turn it

inside out by an NFL uniforminspector before speaking at the podium.

• In 2015 DeAngelo Williams was fined for wearing "Find the Cure" eye black

for breast cancer awareness.

• In 2015 William Gay was fined for wearing purple cleats to raise awareness

for domestic violence. (Not that the NFL has a domestic violence

problem…).

*In 2016 the NFL prevented the Dallas Cowboys from wearing a decal on their

helmet in honor of 5 Dallas Police officers killed in the line of duty.

• 2016 the NFL threatened to fine players who wanted to wear cleats to

commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11.

So tell me again how the NFL supports free speech and expression, all of a sudden… It seems quite clear based on these facts that the NFL has taken a position against any action by NFL players demonstrating RESPECT for any issue: For God, social causes such as mental health, cancer, domestic violence, for cops killed arbitrarily for being cops, and for the Memory of 9/11…

BUT they will allow demonstrations of DISRESPECT for our National Flag, our

National Anthem, for America , and for the American People, if it will help

mollify a particular Group and its supporters. That is who and what the NFL now is shown itself to be.

Pass this post along to all your friends and family, if you believe it

worthy of sharing.

Honor our military; too many have come home with the American Flag draped over their coffin.
