#PackersDaily: I hope they kneel

Aaron chats with Packers fans worldwide about all things Green and Gold, including a whiny section of the fanbase who won't shut up about players possibly kneeling for the anthem.

Earlier this morning, I held my Packers chat over on our YouTube channel, talking all things Green and Gold. 

Be sure to subscribe to the channel if you'd like to participate in future chats.

You can also listen to the podcast here:

We far pass that point where people care about money (besides the organge loooser of course). You have to stand up for the right things that are normal and basic. Had nothing to do with politics. And if we do nothing against the fringe right there would be no use for money in this world anyway.
Lot of people will pissed off if unvincentlompardi people will be part of the packers family.
So everything is good and thancks for the good news.

But as you only here since a couple of hours, you may be only a russian troll anyway. So actually the idiot here posting something back....

Nagler being so dismissive of how others are offended by those kneeling, while supporting those who deem everything offensive not on their agenda or part of their narrative. A true Leftist.

I guess this political comment by me will also be taken down because only one side here gets to be political, though Nagler and party will conclude kneeling isn't a political issue, neither is BLM, AntiFA, White Supremacy and especially COVID-19.

Actually only the fringe right has an agenda. All the other just trying to be good people.
It has nothing to do with politics......

all people with a brain (Dems or GOP) just know that the Dumbest alt right have take the country down and all rules it was build of.
Time to send the Fox News gys where they belong. Would be funny to see how the dumb, cowards who are afraid of everything (mostly working and fighting) to build a country.
All they can do is tearing something down, like we see since 4 years every second.

You can build something on proaganda, hate and idleness, just to get some tainted money out of it for your personal gain. We are lucky if we have something left so save after a sucker like Trump runs us into the ground. And that has nothing to do with politics only with common sense.

And if you want to talk politics...compared to Trump Reagan was a leftist. You must be from the KKK to look note like a leftist compared to the orange wig and his minons. Never thought it comes that far. And very sad, even the whole world is laughing about us.

I think the NFL underestimates who their actual paying fan base is, as do the players underestimate who's actually paying their salaries.

I think everyone can get behind equality and equal rights, but when it's attached to Violence, Terrorism, Beatings, Crime, Damage to Cities and Store Fronts, Damage to people, and last and hardly least, Marxist Communism, I WILL NEVER SUPPORT IT...

I have to strongly agree with you on this on LH. While I understand the tactic the kneelers are employing to make their point, there is a legitimate opposing point of view. When we stop listening to each other and one side just dismisses an opposing point of view as whining, that is very wrong.

While I am not leaving CHTV, I have lost a great deal of respect for Aaron Nagler. Shame on you Mr. Nagler. You are no better than the whiners you decry.

I also would prefer they choose a different form of protest but for somewhat different reasons. I have lived abroad for a fair chunk of my adult life and seen several other cultures "up close and personal". All of these cultures are surprisingly mono-ethnic and decidedly interested in keeping their culture mono-ethnic. Coming back to America from this perspective has allowed me to marvel at our incredible ethnic diversity and multiplicity of cultures. The unifying theme of this incredible montage is that we are all Americans.

I worry we when choose to pick at the symbolic ties that bind us (flag, anthem and country) and what that does to our nation. Ask Spain about Catalonia or Basque or Japan about its ethnic Korean former slaves and you get an idea of what that can do to a country. I just hope we don't reach the stage of undoing the ties that make us all American while trying to rectify problems.

I suspect Nagler and most kneelers are not vets and suspect that they are quite ignorant of history and blinded by their pride, ignorance, privilege and comfortable lifestyle. I could only listen for about 4-5 minutes of his rant in which he denigrated those of us who supposedly don’t listen and don’t agree with being divisive and desecrating sacred national symbols that represent truth, freedom, equality, strength, peace, unity, hope and those who have sacrificed their lives to give these special values and dreams for all Americans and people around the world.

As a veteran, a lifelong Packer fan, and regular reader of Cheeseheadtv, my guts have churned when divisive politics take precedence over healing and unity and just enjoying the game of Packer football. As a white man who was literally attacked by local fireman with a baseball bat, because I brought a black friend into our white neighborhood, l have zero tolerance for racism (whether it’s by whites or blacks. I’ve seen hatred on both sides). I also have little tolerance for those who show disgust and disdain for those us who love our country and the few sacred symbols that everyone (yes, most everyone no matter what political party or color) used to respect when I was growing up.

Aaron, I am saddened that you don’t realize the poison that you have injected here. I have enjoyed your football. commentary and personality, and enjoyed the banter and insight here; but I am not sure how much I’ll be coming back to the site. This country is coming apart from the seams, and I don’t come hear to listen to those of you who are divisive and just can’t love and respect your fellow Packer fan because he or she is different.

The solution to this is so simple it's ridiculous. But first, let me say that I am a Vet who served, and it doesn't affect me or bother me at all. I'm not going to let the actions of a few people I will never meet, offend me.

The solution? Stop playing the anthem at games. Why do they even do it in the first place? It's a football game, not a political rally or Presidential inauguration. During the playing of the anthem, how many fans are actually standing and paying attention anyway? At LEAST 1/3 of the fans are either trying to find their seats or standing in line to get some overpriced crappy "food" or watered down beer.

Don't watch the playing of the anthem if it affects you so profoundly. Then sit back and enjoy the game. Pretty damn simple.

Yes, many people in the stands aren't giving the attention the Anthem deserves before the start of games. But you miss again the point. Standing and the removal of ones hat while in view of the Anthem and Flag is the sign of respect. Of course people will fidget, continue to get their hot dog etc but their all standing, and we understand they're not being disrespectful on purpose and that is different from those that kneel. Every nation plays their Anthem before a sporting event. Only an Anti-American would consider its abandonment altogether.

The solution to a problem or issue isn't always simply stopping whatever. We have an entitlement problem with illegals, let's just stop it. We have an education problem, lets stop teaching. There are criminals all over the country doing harm, let's abandon all law and order. Do you believe doing these are also the solution? Well, the abandonment of the National Anthem is the way to start, especially if you hate this country.

Believe me, the last thing I want to do is get into a back and forth with you. I've learned in the past it's pointless.

I simply asked a legitimate question. Why does the anthem have to be played at sporting events? It's called having a dialogue. I never said to abandon our national anthem and you know it. There are many more appropriate places to honor it other than a football game. And to go off on all these other tangents, like abandoning our education system or trying figure out our complex immigration system, and that I hate this country from that....wow!

I've lived in this country for 70 years, paying taxes for 50. I've raised my wonderful family here. Coached their various little league teams. Watched them graduate high school, then college. Becoming a proud grandparent. I faithfully served in the military when I was called upon to do so.

If that's your definition of being Anti-American and that I hate this country, simply because I don't share your views on this topic, it's you who are being disrespectful and missing the point.

Fox News is nothing but a propaganda show. As an entertainment network they are not required by the FCC to provide actual or accurate news. They can literally make it up and often do.

Fox News is news of the imbeciles, by the imbeciles, for the imbeciles. They should have their license revoked, but we have free speech so they are allowed to perform as the Goebbel’s news network. Thanks, Since ‘61

Lphill, No, almost never for MSNBC.
My news sources include The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, The Economist, NPR, PBS, BBC, Reuters, Bloomberg, The International Herald Tribune, The New Yorker and the National Review, the Sunday NY Times and several online subscriptions to Asian, European and South American Journals. I also get numerous medical journals from my son who is a doctor. Which is good during this era of Covid 19. I’d rather be informed by professionals who know what they are talking about than airheads on TV or from a President who rejects science and who tells the American people “It is what it is.” While Americans are dying. I’m sure that was a great comfort to the families and friends of the sick and dying.

At least half of these periodicals would not be considered “progressive” leaning. I need the mix of sources to keep up with
both domestic and international politics and finances for my Mergers and Acquisition business. Although I’m retired I still have several clients who have kept me on a personal retainer so I need reliable unbiased sources to the extent possible. Plus I prefer to see how the International press looks at the USA. They are not very impressed I can assure you of that.
Speaking for myself I usually know the news MSNBC or Fox or other US networks provide before they go on the air every evening. Except for some local stuff. You should try a few of these sources. Find out how the informed live. Thanks, Since ‘61

Since when is standing for the Athem a political thing? I would think that everyone would rather live here and show a little respect for the country that offers more opportunities than any other place on this planet. If you don’t like it there are a lot of people willing to trade places with you. City mayors and city Councils are the reason police problem exists. If you want the problem fixed quit electing a crappy local officials. Don’t protest the country.

You would have hoped the insanity of 2020 would provide some perspective to peaceful protests. But I am getting to the point of Nagler. All the ones who keep saying they are out, how come they are still here to keep telling us they are out over and over? Be gone already. Everyone is doing this now. You are on the wrong side of history at this point. The NBA put BLM right on the court and their jerseys. Baseball has entire teams and managers kneeling and wearing BLM patches on their uniforms. Hockey players are kneeling. Soccer in other countries are all kneeling. The Aussie Rules game had all the players kneeling and wearing a BLM shirt during warmups. Every tv show and movie has a statement right on the credits or on twitter in support of the movement. So if this so offends you that you are out, please be out already and go away. Maybe there are puppet shows or Fox News you can still watch but otherwise the entire world has gotten behind this.

The BLM "trend/fad" is a false narrative. I would encourage all Packer fans watch the police body camera of the initial arrest of Mr. Floyd. The police showed extreme restraint. The tape had to be leaked to British media because the MN State Attorney General would not allow it's release. He and the incompetent Minni city leaders could have minimized the urban riots, murders, and destruction by getting these body cam tapes to the press immediately. In short, the toxicology report showed Mr. Floyd to be a walking overdose drug addict time bomb. Fact, the coroner's original autopsy determined cause of death was a heart attack. Fact, the DA told the coroner to change the autopsy conclusion to asphyxiation. All the rioting and murders were/are political in nature and continue by AntiFa and the BLM political organization. The media, some politicians and BLM political organization have convicted these officers without a fair trial. Should the officer have held Mr. Floyd down with a knee to the back of the neck? No... however allow lady justice to work. Immediately raising the anti-police race card led to billions of dollars of urban destruction . I am old enough to have witnessed significant, radical cultural changes in this country and willing to debate them. Individual freedom is imperative and a God given right for all Americans. Everyone has the right to their opinion. For someone to say leave this forum because they disagree with your rational or irrational ideas is either arrogant or to be polite - foolish.

John Oliver showed a clip from a 1957 news report with a sweet looking lady telling the interviewer that "the problem with this integration stuff is next thing you know they will want to intermarry and be equal with us. "

In 50 years quotes downplaying BLM will look as out of step and make future people amazed past people once thought that. The wheel of time tends toward justice and a world where everyone knows DWB exists and everyone thinks oh well what you gonna do, is a world that requires change.

I am not telling anyone to leave. They are saying it. How they are done over and over. I reckon they must have quit 59 times each now. And how can we miss you if you haven't left yet?

Adorabelle, thank you for saving me from having to express the same sentiment, though far less clearly and powerfully than you have done! I always appreciate your passionately intelligent posts. I would only add this question for the quitters: how did they arrive at the notion that they alone are sustaining the team, and that all will crumble when they leave? If they would leave--and leave space within which a more diverse fan base might feel more comfortable--that wheel of time toward greater justice will noticeably have taken us all forward.

And as for whose life matters, why does a black life matter more than mine? They do not. I did not reference "BLM" as they are a fascist/marxist/ socialist (your choice) organization trying to disrupt the US way of life. not necessarily promote any race. And they do not try to hide it. (check their homepage).

And I have to say, if you think that limited clip of the murder was the whole clip/story, you need to rethink before talking. Then you may not sound so uninformed in your post.

How are the people claiming they are “out” any different than the celebrities who stated they would leave America if Trump won the last election? None of those celebrities left. Zero. However, since opening day restart in all sports....ratings are down after the big BLM displays. Except for one sport...the PGA. Which is doing nothing political. The nbas ratings are being impacted the most. clippers vs lakers had less viewers than their pre Covid matchups. They are the only sport that didn’t have any post Covid bump for their new opening day 1. Additionally,. Espn subscribers has dropped 6% already in Q3 compared to last year and we are just halfway through the quarter. With cord cutting espn has been averaging a 1-3% loss in subscribers every quarter the past 2 years so down 6% with half the quarter to go is a huge drop and a direct reflection of the political - and only one side of politics - being thrust into sports. So...I can’t verify people are leaving cheesehead tv because of political takes...but in general people’s displeasure has been seem in espn subscribers and tv ratings.

You rag on Fox News but their prime time news shows is averaging 2-6x the viewers (depends on the sport and day of week) than every sporting event it on at the same time. That is not a misprint...fox is averaging 5-6 million viewers for their news shows while the nba is now averaging 1-2 million during the same time slot. (Had 3.2 million on restart but hasn’t been close to that since).. So not a good argument that everyone is behind it. I’d guess by your statements that you lean left and only follow and listen to and believe tweets and media that angles to one narrative. I hate both sides since I’m a middle ground type of person. I base my opinion on data. Not emotions.

The top five cable news programs for the month of July were as follows: Hannity (4,096,000), Tucker Carlson Tonight (4,020,000), The Ingraham Angle (3,415,000), The Rachel Maddow Show (3,339,000), The Five (3,307,000).

The everyone is behind it I meant was the leagues and the players. They have decided they are doing this. Even the NFL management that tried to tread such a fine line years ago now says they were wrong for not supporting this in the past. The ones threatening they are walking if this happens are waving bye to a departing ship. This is already happening in every sport. The Tweets of players indicate a commitment to this and any loss of fans is not going to dissuade them.

Overall, polls put support of BLM protests at around 63 - 67 % in most polls I have observed. So maybe this explains why even the generally more conservative NFL put its support behind the players.

My personal support of this issue does spring from my living with a black man for the last 4 years. Only time he ever yelled at me was to "shut up" when I was giving guff to the officer that pulled us over for no reason. We all knew it was simply because a black man was driving a nice car in a nice neighborhood. He told me after that every black person just knows they have to put up with that sort of thing. So everyone will have to excuse me if I think this is something that's worth getting excited about and for believing change is required.

That is way too overly simplistic. My job also doesn't have 80,000 people paying to come watch me do it. My job doesn't have 12 television cameras capturing it and announcers commenting. To not acknowledge the difference between their platform and exposure and mine is disingenuous. Kapernick chose his time and place to protest because he knew the attention it would garner. He could have given a few thousand talks on the topic and never got close to the exposure kneeling once received. He wanted it to be uncomfortable for us and hopefully start a dialogue.

"the protests literally have nothing to do with football". I watch several news stations every day. That's where I want to hear political opinion, not on the Packer podcasts I listen to. By the way, the protests don't have much to do with black lives, either. If they truly were, they'd wear the names of the black children that were gunned down in Chicago (by their fellow African Americans) over the last couple of months, on their jerseys. The most recent being a black life that was ended last weekend, after only 9 years . I didn't even listen to the last 17 minutes of his podcast.

There are several hundred organizations in Chicago working on the problem of violence. The Chicago Youth Program, the Dovetail Project, the Westside Cultural Foundation, Urban Initiatives, Future Ties, Blackstone Bikes, Apna Ghar, Blair Holt Peace Alliance, CeaseFire Illinois, Center on Halsted, Chicago Citizens For Change, Chicago Safe Start, Crosswalk Chicago, Kids Off The Block, Moms Demand Action, Little Black Pearl, Purpose Over Pain, UCAN Chicago, and the Safer Foundation are a few to start with. Since 1990 the violent crime rate is down near 50 percent. So progress seen and a lot of work yet to do. Since I know you are worried about this so much I gave you a good number of choices to donate toward.

BLM has a different purpose and is working to address the belief that minorities have zero chance of receiving justice when dealing with the authorities. It is working to bring to light the systemic police brutality and racially motivated violence that exists.

I'll bet that's not down by 50 %. "Minorities have zero chance of receiving justice when dealing with the authorities". That's a bald faced lie!! If they wouldn't keep giving the authorities reasons to, they wouldn't have to deal with them at all. 13% of the population, while committing about 40% of the crimes.

Generally I am against mixing politics into this site. I tried to avoid it for a LONG time and I generally do, but now I pretty much respond when people raise it because so many people feel the need to bring it in.

As I would think everyone should know by now, Kaepernick developed the option of kneeling after consulting with a veteran. I'm a veteran. Kneeling doesn't bother me.

I'm also a lawyer who has worked with two different police forces. I've served both Republicans and Democrats. There is no world in which what happened to George Floyd should be acceptable to anyone. There was simply NOTHING that he did to justify the level of use of force that he received. And there really is NO good reason to kneel on anyone's neck EVER.

To me this should not be a political issue. This should be a human rights issue. Unfortunately, everything is political now. If you choose to look at this through a political lens that is your choice. I disagree.

Here is the quote that Ellison made to the Washington Post. How about not being lazy and do some research. There is also a video out there of this interview, I saw it.

“I’m a firm believer in transparency, and the public’s right to know, but a higher priority for me is a successful prosecution,” the AG told The Washington Post. “Therefore, I’ll consult with our lead investigators and I’ll say to them, ‘When can we release this information to the public and still safeguard the prosecution?’ If we can do it before [trial], I would have no problem with doing that, but I am reluctant to do anything that would undermine the prosecution of this case.”

There, he is more concerned about a prosecution than letting the public know the truth.

Evidence, it's a thing. And if you give up too much evidence to the public, it can sway a jury, and lead to mistrial. "Prosecution" and "prosecution of this case" happens regardless of the desire to find guilt.

Something I've long understood, and I think a great number of people today could stand to learn, is that liberals and conservatives are people.

I work with people everyday with vastly different political views. We all get along, respect each other, and, (gasp!) most of us like each other, too.

Most of us have more in common than not. We want to raise our families and see them grow up and do well, do our jobs and make enough earnings to be secure for retirement. We want to enjoy the company of friends. Laugh. Live. Be treated fairly and with respect. See our country do well.

There was a time when the great majority of Americans realized that despite being left or right, we all want basically the same things, and just because someone might have a different idea of how to go about it, doesn't make them any less human, or our enemy. You can agree to disagree and still understand that most of us are all moral, decent human beings, generally striving for the same things in life.

If I were sitting next to you on a bar stool, we'd probably get along great if you didn't ask me what my politics are. Also, if you disrespected me by calling me a POS for no reason other than my politics, you'd no longer find yourself in your barstool.

You mean this footage? And let's not talk about "real" footage. It's all real, it just shows different stuff. And no, I still don't see anything that justifies an escalation that resulted in someone's death. The question is not whether the knee hold was done properly, the question is whether it was necessary.

How much did Mr. Floyd care about the baby inside a woman's belly that he held a gun to while demanding to know where money was, during a home invasion he was involved in????? He claimed to be claustrophobic and asked if he was going to be shot. What a crock!! He should not have died,and the cop kneeling on his neck should be charged. If he would have shut the hell up and followed instructions by the cops, he would be alive today, and we'd be talking football right now

Well said Mark. As a veteran myself, the kneeling doesn't bother me either. It's a protest against people of color being treated differently by police than white people. It has absolutely nothing to do with the military.

I talk to fellow veterans quite regularly when I go to my local VA for medical treatment. You'd be surprised how many of them could care less about the kneeling. They understand it's not directed at them.

I'd be willing to bet the vast majority of people complaining that's it's disrespectful to veterans, have never served a day in their lives.

Thank you Mark, Champ ,61!! I also thought that it was a well thought out way to make us aware that as a country we still have a way to go as far as equality. I'm glad that there are veterans who take the kneeling as a plea for notice and unity instead of disrespect because hearing that vets were taking it as disrespect was sad.

Even if what these guys say is true, the kneeling still shows a distasteful lack of respect for the soldiers who didn't make it back from the various conflicts. Maybe some of the living vets don't care, but I guarantee a significant percentage of the population does. And what about the wives and children of the fallen veterans?...Maybe they should be consulted, too.

The original act was done during the National Anthem to get your attention. Several million speeches could never have achieved the notice that act did. It took years and a few more horrible acts of brutality but now it has near unanimity among athletes and entertainers. And why do they continue? Because nothing has changed yet.

The right to peacefully assemble and protest- even to protest your own country (which is NOT what they protest when they kneel)- is one of the defining traits of our American Democracy that sets us apart from, and the envy of, the rest of the world.

I have never understood how others do not understand this. Protesting is one of the most American things one can do.

It isn't about Republican or Democratic parties.

It's a basic understanding of our constitution and what makes the united states unique.

Another thing people freak out about: " (Insert random reform suggestion) THEY WANT TO CHANGE THE CONSTITUTION! THAT'S ANTI-AMERICAN! THEY ARE COMMUNISTS! THEY HATE AMERICA! THAT'S AGAINST THE xTH AMENDMENT!"

Uh, yeah.. about that constitution.. it's genius is found in it's ability to be amended.. The forefathers had the foresight to see that times change and countries change, and any constitution they drafted would need to have a legal procedure allowing for it to be flexible and change with the times. Hence, amendments..

The single largest issue we have today is too many people who don't understand anything about our government and history are regularly being
persuaded to freak out about things they don't understand.

Oppy - it always amazes me that so many people forget that the USA started with a little protest called the American Revolution. That women marched and protested for decades to obtain the right to vote which they should have had from day one.

Others forget the Civil Rights movement in the 50s and 60s plus the Vietnam War protests of the late 60s and 70s. Those were much more violent events than the current protests.

I for one prefer to see players kneeling for equality and justice rather than returning to the violence we saw back in the 60s and 70s.

For centuries, millennia even, people have knelt either as a sign of respect for their kings or their gods. Other were forced to kneel as a sign of submission to their conquerors or oppressors. Our flags stands for liberty, equality and justice for all. For far too long and for far too many people that has not been true in the USA or for much of the world. That is why people are kneeling around the world. Not to disrespect the flag or the country. But to point out that many people who have wanted to stand Equally with others have been and continue to be knocked down.

The USA has not, is not and never will be perfect. But if we are going to ever deliver on the promise of this nation then we need to enable everyone to stand together equally as people. Not as white people, or black people or brown people, but just as people, together as Americans. Then everyone can stand equally for the national Anthem. Thanks, Since ‘61

This country was formed by an act of treason. But now apparently we can only dissent in the "correct" way. Of course if you are black there is no correct way it is always wrong.

It’s wrong to do it in the streets;
It’s wrong to do it in the tweets;
You cannot do it on the field;
You cannot do it if you’ve kneeled;
And don’t do it if you’re rich,
you ungrateful son of a bitch.
Because there’s one thing that’s a fact:
You cannot protest if you’re black.

Adorabelle says .... ... "But now apparently we can only dissent in the "correct" way. Of course if you are black there is no correct way it is always wrong."

What a dumb thing to say. I can't believe any rational person would attach themselves to such nonsense.

Everyone has a right to protest peacefully. Surely you remember many peaceful "black rights," anti-war,etc protests. MLK Jr., Father Groppi and so many more. Peaceful was fine then, the protest made the news and everyone went home healthy. But now rioting is considered an acceptable protest? NO!! Not for the general populations. (except in a few misguided places.)

Burning, fighting, vandalism, stealing, injuring, etc. do not fall under the heading of peaceful. And using peaceful protesters to hide behind, as antifa and blm does, is cowardly and descriptive. (might as well be the taliban)

Protest all you want, but do not equate rioting to protests.

Egbertsouse, well said. I only spent 5 months in the Nam and as a medic I was just trying to keep guys alive and get them to the chopper and evac out. That hero stuff is BS when the shxt hits the fan.

I ended up getting put on a chopper and sent home after the 2nd time I was hit. But I was the lucky one. I recovered except for the scars and the memories that still linger after all these years.

Kneeling on a football field is a lot better than kneeling in the mud in that jungle trying to keep a screaming, bleeding buddy alive with bullets and shxt flying all around. Let them kneel. Maybe it will save some lives down the road. As long as it’s peaceful. Thanks, Since ‘61

I deeply appreciate your sharing of your story, Since '61. I feel privileged to have heard your voice, and to know you are in the Packers and CHTV community of fans. My dad is a Vietnam vet too, and I know (from his PTSD) that he, too, suffered. My dad and uncle were Milwaukee-area cops for 25 years, and my son is now in the Army, and none of them, like you, confuses their service with the hero stuff, or the hate-driven bullying that for whatever reason keeps showing up in the CHTV comments section. I do understand that exposure to trauma can result in hate and anger, but you have rejected that. Thank you for your vulnerability in speaking up and for your sacrifices.

Wisconsinstrong, I appreciate your generous and thoughtful comments. I just try to keep all this in perspective. My Dad was WW2 combat and NYPD for 27 years. So I learned early to stay focused on what’s important, to keep things in perspective and to be accountable.
I’m proud of my service although brief, but in the service I learned, as your son will, to stay alert, do your job, support each other and leave no one behind.
With my business partner, we ran our company using those principles and others. Now retired I look at this and I just don’t see the need for all the hate and anger. It solves nothing but hurts many.
Family, friends, colleagues, help people, volunteer/donate. The rest including the kneeling and the BLM will be temporary. This time next year there will be other reasons for people to leave CHTV again.
I wish your son the best of luck and safe travels. Stay safe and stay well. Thanks, Since ‘61

Some people just like being pissed off I guess. Here's an idea, if you dont like something dont participate in it, watch or listen to it. If the kneeling bothers you than turn off your TV while they are kneeling or something, change the channel or dont watch at all, that's your decision.

If everyone in this country was just a little bit less self righteous than we might actually be able to accomplish great things as a country. Now we just bicker and fight over the dumbest stuff.

And make no mistake about it, Politics are a team sport or at least that what's its become. Its Left vs Right with team colors, mascots and everything. Everyone wants their team to win even if that means another 4 years of Trump. Not that Biden is all that great of a choice either. Maybe just a lesser evil in my opinion. But hey what do I know.

Oh and in case you didn't know:

A self-righteous person thinks their beliefs and morals are better than everyone else's. A self-righteous person thinks they can do no wrong, and goes about with a "holier-than-thou" attitude, judging and scrutinizing everyone else.

I think we are all guilty of this from time to time but if you can just try to see another person's point of view or display a little empathy we would all be better people for it.

WHILE YOU'RE KNEELING, OPEN WIDE AND SWALLOW SOME SALTY FACTS... 6% of the population commits 50% of this countries homicides, and crime rates in most other categories are similarly skewed thus 1 in 3 blacks are either in jail, on parole or on probation. Illiteracy rates of inner city blacks is near 50%, 70% of black children are raised by one parent. Based on just these small samples, the black community is failing catastrophically and the liberals provide cover by pushing identity politics and the vacuous narrative that blacks are victims because of.... the police. Meanwhile, one recent poll showed that blacks support increasing police in their communities by 81%, possibly because liberals aren't running into the bullets to save them. Any reasonable debate identifies what can be positively done to help the black community and many of us feel that accountability including literacy rates and accountability within the black race are paramount. Aaron, this may hurt your feelings, but many of us feel 'kneeling' is virtue signaling drivel which can only be subscribed to by the truly ignorant.

Trump destroyed everything without one day of work, just with his unmoral stupidity and there are still people who are afraid of something.

YOu don't have to be smart to make money, just not as dumb as the idiots you sucker out of money.

Oh gee, a failure of a man who inherited his entire fortune (most of which he's squandered on bad investments because he's a terrible businessman) is obviously sooo smart. It takes real brains being born.

You jackass.

Guys, give Nagler a break!
He's trying to tackle a difficult subject that is certainly currently a hot topic in the NFL - and that he gets questions on. He did over-share - but that's his brand.
While I personally wouldn't kneel, he's merely pointing out that the intent is to call attention to the multitude of injustices many minorities have been subject to all their lives. Shocker, America is not perfect.
Not that some of the protests haven't been overblown, as have the reactions. Don't fall for either exaggeration; think about what the players are trying to highlight - and then enjoy them trying to kill each other on the field.

Come mothers and fathers, throughout the land
And don't criticize what you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'

So am I reading correctly that people see the title of this post and then listen to it anyway and then threaten to leave because Naglers says exactly what the title says.

But the Liberals are the whiners?

I expect most of the folks who threaten to go forever to be back as soon as the games start. Such is the way of cowards.

All should kneel for our country and against this dumb dip shit and the rest of his looosers who never worked a day in here life.
Vince would have ordered all the players to kneel before every game. He might have hoped the bigot moron crybabies may stay away forever.

JUST KNEEL FOR THE FLAG even the orange wig made the Flag so dirty, you cant recognize it anymore.

Dont know how it could happend that an orange coward (together with even dumber, racist haters like Carlsson, Ingram.......) made America so unamerican.....

How in the world can anyone be more unamerican than the orange wig is beyond me. He destroyed the country, made the flag dirty every day and ruins everything we were proud of.
Protest a looooser like that is your duty as a real AMERCAN.
Lombardi would kneel because thats all the Packers are all about.

Dont know when this ultra right stuff became trendy and every normal thinking guy is a leftist. Boy, did that country change for the worse and I have no idea how I should that explain to my grandkids.

Is hate, guns and stupidity all thats left??? In my haydays, Trump would had not even got a job as a waterboy. Sorry, waterboys.

JUST KNEEL

faastmoving says .... "How in the world can anyone be more unamerican than the orange wig is beyond me. He destroyed the country, made the flag dirty every day and ruins everything we were proud of."

Maybe because you don't bother with the facts. Trump had made America great again. The numbers prove it. Just about any category you want to discuss. Employment, reduced taxes, economy, illegal immigrants, borders, trade deals (esp w/China, Canada, Mexico), patriotism, and the military. All way better than the "New Normal condescension the previous admin. told us we would have to live with. Our flag flies high, even in this pandemic.

You should tell you grandkids to thank Trump for not being socialists (if he/we can hold them off).

This is stupid. ALL LIVES MATTER! Even the poorest peasant in India. ALL! Standing during our National Anthem is to honor OUR (earned) freedom, and our country (and Flag via symbolism), and those who fought for it, those who envisioned it (Bill of Rights), those who built it, and those who died for it. I will gladly boycott and disavow any one, or group, or entity that does something other than honor OUR country. Even my Packers.

I get a kick out of reading all the hating, partisan comments. After being a licensed lobbyist for 30 years, traveling to DC on countless occasions to meet with politicians I think that many of you would be aghast to see them all (from both parties) laughing and drinking together at restaurants & bars every evening.

The point is, they're all laughing at partisan schmucks who think they actually care about the people that vote them into office. In reality, the only thing that matters to politicians is doing whatever is necessary to keep themselves in office and enjoying the money and power trip they get from doing so. And yes, I've had them admit that to me.

Everything runs in cycles, history has shown that absolute power corrupts absolutely.

It's amazing how many idiots applaud Trump for "Draining the Swap" as he fills it to the brim and muddies its waters more.

Cronyism at its worst. Truly the most corrupt president to hold office in our lifetimes. Perhaps ever... and the whole world sees it and wonders how the American people not only stand for it, but some support it.

"Have sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind" (1 Peter 3:8). Whatever our religious or spiritual leanings, we see the wisdom behind words like these in relation to how we treat our fellow human. I am horrified to see the CHTV comment section become a cozy place for white supremacy and the swapping of theories about why George Floyd deserved to die. I try to remind myself that willful racism doesn't represent Packer Nation, but it's hard when one comes here and finds so much vitriol and prejudice. There are too many kind and good and caring people of all colors within Packers fandom to have to be subjected to hatred and bigotry. Some say they want sports to be an escape from politics. The players, 70% Black, can't escape from the racism in our country and right here in the comments in this thread. To oppose racism is not to incite riots or preach communism. And we who love the Packers love our players for getting behind the just cause of anti-racism. Listen to the players, listen to a neighbor who doesn't look like you or watch the same TV news show that you watch, listen to the vets and police officers who understand that kneeling was the idea of a Green Beret vet and not an attack on the country. We would all be in a much better place if we got away from our TV news and computers a bit more, and Just listened, and learned to let go of our hate.

I don't have a guilty Consciousness. I know how to be a good citizen. Listening to the wrong people is why there is hate. The enemy is within. People don't want to do for their government.

I can see how young people might not have a sense yet what the National Anthem represents to the vast majority of Americans. Listen to the words. Its about the sacrifices made (veterans) to gain our liberties. Why would anyone chose something like that to protest? Many people don't see the National Anthem in that light so have a hard time seeing the issue.

I wonder what would happen to the majority of athletes outside of the US if they kneeled for their National Anthem?? China,Russia, Middle east, There would be serious repercussions. I would say much harsher social backlash than this country.

It's a shame.

Naglar declaration? Probably just a product of living in NYC and working in the media/entertainment industry. Heart felt belief, capitulation or some combination. Why would anyone change their stance on this over time? It's not an oppression/infringement on human rights issue. It's a proper time and place issue - Few argue the belief that drives kneeling - The argument is time and place. These guys are spoiled and have to get their way even if its rude, disrespectful, and offensive to most Americans that are their customers. Coin Toss, after the game like the prayers, interviews even. National Anthem? Divisive not Productive

Well I would hope that Packer fans are smart enough and don’t need MSMBC, CNN or Fox News to tell us how to think on the kneeling issue. We aren’t Bear or Viking fans that are mesmerized by the shiny spinning object in front of our face. People feel how they feel about the kneeling issue because of personal conviction. Not need to bring the current prideful President or the last President who thought it was a good idea to give Iran 150 billion dollars to Iran into the discussion.

Everyone one or most everyone believes this is an issue that needs to be addressed. You can talk all you want and probably very few minds will be changed which then I ask the question if kneeling during the Anthem is such a hot button issue why do it. Don’t you begin to lose the message when half the people don’t believe in the way the protest is being conducted? Everyone is talking about kneeling instead of racial inequality in regards to law enforcement.

Why not everyone kneel right before kickoff? Everyone would see it then. Better yet why not just burn the flag on the 50 yard line. I know some people would find that acceptable too. Again the lines are draw in the sand so why kneel during the Anthem.
You could stop playing the Anthem but why? It is not supposed to a political thing which some people think it has turned into but is hasn’t. Wanting inequality recognized is not a political thing it is a humane thing. Wanting to honor this country and pay respect to military members past and present is not a political thing. If you haven’t figured it out that is why I stand. I honor my friends who died while serving and it didn’t matter what color they were. They were my friends.

We play the Anthem before high school football and basketball games, in the Olympics if one of our athletes takes the podium the Anthem is played so yes I believe we should not do away with it. If people what to bring in what news outlet or what President you support in to the conversation than your just being a doofus. People have legitimate reasons to be for or against. The media itself, like the guy that sponsored this blog, pits fans against each other. A house divided cannot stand. There was a time when football was untouchable and people just went to games or watched them on TV for enjoyment and escape all the crap that goes on. Those days may be behind us now.

Last thing is I haven’t see anyone say people don’t have the right to protest by kneeling during the Anthem. They just don’t support that type of protest.

I’m all for anyone personally doing what they want, however the narrative around BLM, and kneeling has become something evil- you’re a racist until you prove you aren’t-guilty until proving your own innocence. Nagler, I know NY is a sea of liberal BS surrounded by reality, but you are ruining your livelihood with this virtue signaling. I too am done. Go Pack

When a fox news acolyte sees or hears someone going out of their way to say or do something they agree with, it's "standing up for your convictions", when they witness a person saying or doing something they don't agree with, it's "virtue signaling".

Absolutely hilarious.
