    Sounds like what being an entertainer is? They even get a hefty paycheck to do so. They are free to seek employment elsewhere if they would like though.

    So are you one who believes an employer can't decide how an employee will act while representing the employer? Do you actually think this is a 1st Amend issue?

    I guaran-damn-tee if you were my employee you'd be picking up your last check if you pulled a stunt like that on my time.

    I think it's up to the employer to make the call and not a bunch of keyboard commandos who likely don't even stand and put their hand over their heart in their living rooms when it comes up.

    This is a great example of corporate cluelessness. Someone must have suggested this stance a long time ago and they were probably fired or forced to attend some sensitivity class. Now it comes back to bite them in the ass. I really LIKED watching the NFL and keeping up with the standings. Not anymore.

    These idiots should have taken this stance a year ago. You are one of them Elway, along with all the other head coaches and owners. You had plenty of time to change things and chose not to do it.

    Screw them. I hope they end up like arena football and fall flat on their faces.

    I am choosing to watch the excellent PBS series on the Vietnam War. Reality. All played out on a real battlefield. My heroes don't collect millions while playing a game. Never have been. Last week forced a decision on my part. I will now have a lot of free time on Sundays.

    So these same "keyboard commandos" are not entitled to vote with their money, and bitch about the NFL while doing so? News flash, their employers make their millions from the same keyboard commandos that you seem to think aren't entitled to an opinion.

    That's rich coming from a keyboard commando that says people on this forum made statements that they clearly did not.

    C'mon Ridge, you should know better than to bring that argument. There is no force. Intellectually dishonest and emotionally driven.

    While the business owner is absolutely the decider, he has customers to serve.

    With TV ratings on the decline the value of each franchise will decline as well.

    Will be interesting to see how much shrinkage of their industry they will tolerate .
