NFL is around 97 years old. Being on the field for the anthem is something the NFL has only done for 8 years. There was no issue with the team...
While the anthem continued to be a game-day fixture, NFL players typically stayed in the locker room for it. There were exceptions, of course --...
I just linked you to proof that the DoD pays for the patriotism you see in sports...
It's not irrelevant because people are acting like it's the end all be all. When they forget they use to watch the same sporting event when they...
I was wondering about this as well. At first I thought they might let AV run out last but after seeing the **** storm he has started I think that...
So what did everyone do before 2009 when they didn't play the anthem? You realize they only do because the DoD cuts the NFL a check like many...
You still fail to realize this is only an issue because AV decided to stand without his team. Titans did the same exact thing and got no criticism.
[MEDIA] See how silly all this is. Dude says he's cheering for the Ravens because they don't kneel then they all kneel a week later. The only...
I'm pretty sure most of those teams have had players kneel before where the Steelers haven't. I know the Bengals have but apparently that's not an...
I don't think any team just linked arms. Those teams had kneelers as well. Steelers had players that were going to kneel. I mean listen to Tomlins...
Trust me I get all that and I agree. I don't agree with the people kneeling. But they made a decision as a TEAM. I'm sure there was a lot of...
This is exactly what they tried to avoid by making a decision as a TEAM to stay in the locker room. AV wasn't being a team player, sadly.
Well Harrison and others are probably mad because they wanted to be out there for the anthem but they decided as a team not to. So when one person...
Yes, Haden was tackled on the big run in OT and Burns was held/carried into the 5th row.
I have to agree with Harrison. They made a decision as a team. The point was to keep everybody out of politics and headlines and what AV did is...
Apparently that's the attitude of our coach and team as well. Shame on me for believing.
Glennon is now 2-0 vs the Steelers :shrug:
Guess I can delete this thread, it's a pipe dream. Same ol Tomlin coached Steelers playing down to their opponent. Apparently this will never change.
Defense technically didn't play horrible. 14 points were their fault and 10 points were because of special teams. The problem is the Bears were...
How many missed tackles today? Wtf
