I have no problem with anyone expressing their feelings professionally.

But as a veteran of the US Army, this past weekend's display of disrespect during what should be a pretty sacred act disgusts me.

I turned the 'skins game on late & ended up watching the whole thing, not realizing some of my former beloved 'skins also decided to show their disrespect during the national anthem.

There are so many better ways to express their causes..they all have Twitter. They all have ample money & access to media. But to choose to disrespect their own country's anthem- that's just inexcusable to me.

To each his own, but I am "taking a knee on the NFL" for awhile...maybe forever.
There are other things to do on Sunday and I will keep exploring the options to help fill the void.

This will be my last post. I wish you all the best.
