Biblicaly speaking, bowing the knee is the most reverent and honoring thing to do to show submission and respect. As the Bible Says, "every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the Glory of God the Father." If people would know there bible's they could have turned this all around on those players and they would have been kicking themselves for showing more respect and submission by bowing the knee. Another reason we are to read and know our Bibles ourselves... not just Church leaders.

You need to fight harder for players rights. Fighting for this country means fighting for free speech. Players have the right to express themselves and that is what we have fought for in countless wars, Free Speech. I think a Players Union Hall of Fame might be an idea that could become great. Players selected by players.

CANTON REPOSITORY LETTERS TO THE EDITOR 07/31/2018nnLetter to the Editor:nnNFL players have many ways to protest, choose wiselynnFirst of all, the NFL's new rule is not against any law or article of the Constitution. The players are not being forced to do anything. They have been given a choice: stand and show respect for the flag and those who fought or died protecting your rights on the field, or stay in the locker room until the national anthem is finished playing.n"Freedom of speech," they yell out. I was free, according to the First Amendment, to call my employer foul or obscene names also. Wonder where I would have been working the next day?nThis is not an issue about free speech; this is trying to get someone to believe your protest is the only way you have of expressing your views, when in fact there are a million other ways it could have been done.nTo understand, maybe the NFL and players should read the fable about killing the goose that laid the golden egg. That's what I see happening. No business is "too big to fail."nnHARRY KRICHBAUM, CANTON TOWNSHIP

I admire your dedication to fascism and forced patriotism, but I think you may be confused regarding our desire for such a regime. Please kindly take your new ruling regarding kneeling and not only shove it straight up your glaringly white backside, but remember that your children and grandchildren will live seeing your names begin to pop up in history books with word associations such as "racist" "hate" "ignorance", and "greed". Obviously this is okay with you, but you are also taking a giant dump on every veteran (isn't that a nice sized chunk of your fan base?) that has fought and lived or died for this country. I can't fathom how you sleep at night you Nazi bastards.

UN-AMERICAN! Don't stand = don't play = no pay... 3 strike rule til you get the boot. Plain and simple. The few hundred players so called rights will get them nowhere vs the millions of fans that see it as unpatriotic, anti-Trump, political BS. Smarten up!
