Before each World Series game the players are introduced, every player stands and honors the celebration. All caps are removed, the anthem is proudly played, they even have a military fly over.

Play ball, I’m watching.

I agree! Hope Bruce Maxwell gets the message soon that he might find himself without a job - like Kaepernick - if he keeps on kneeling... https://www.cbsnews.com/news/oakland-as-bruce-maxwell-kneels-national-anthem/

ETA: I know this was in September, but there's no info that I can find as to whether he is still kneeling or if it was only one time....anyone know?

Maxwell did that toward the end of the season. I'm not sure how many times he did it but I contacted the Oakland A's and expressed my opinion. All of these teams have a "contact us" at the bottom of their websites. So far all but the Packers have email that are open for contacting and commenting. I get the feeling since all of the Packers are protesting they do not want the emails. They do have regular mail address.

Mailing Address
Green Bay Packers
P.O. Box 10628
Green Bay, WI 54307-0628

Many of their sponsors also have email addresses that you can contact. I found a great list that I am working my way through.

Sometimes a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, because he IS a man.
And unlike our little girl of a president, they actually do it for others and not for themselves!

Really? "They actually do it for others". What is it exactly that they "do"? Have they coherently explained what they are doing? Have they commited themselves to actually do something MEANINGFUL? Have they started dialogues with community leaders? Have they donated any of THEIR time or THEIR money to effect change?

WTF are they actually "doing", s**t for brains?

Trolling. I used to sort of pay attention to SS and Dirt and Twardlow and Keenan (who is now banned). but only shrug when I see them now. If they could even offer interesting conversation, but all I see anymore is things like "Bulls**t" from Twardlow and "Ya dont knoo wat I'm sayin" type of things from Dirt. Although
Dirt's contributions are welcomed here, apparently. He's the UHH mascot..I can relate to that...makes money for the forum with all the "clicks" and "new topics" etc. And Dirt's not offensive, usually, so I guess we should tolerate him for the sake of the website's finances??
