The Cleveland Browns anthem protest continues to reverberate through the region as residents take sides for and against the on-field activism.
On Thursday, VFW Commander Tim Zvoncheck posted a message to his Facebook page, informing the public that his Strongsville post would no longer air games on Sundays.
Zvoncheck’s message reads:“So tonight, I asked the membership of my post, VFW 3345, what they thought of the Cleveland Browns players kneeling during the National Anthem and the coaching staff backing their decision. Just as I suspected, the “boos” nearly tore the roof off. Effective immediately, VFW Post 3345 will no longer televise any Cleveland Browns games! We will never support any person or organization who disgraces the flag or the anthem that we fought for and so many or our brothers and sisters have died for! Until a formal apology by this organization is publicized and the utter disregard to America ceases, we, as veterans of this great country will not stand for this! We love our Browns, but we love our flag more…God bless America and damn those who think differently! #RespectOurFlag” A group of Browns players protested during the national anthem prior to Monday night’s preseason game against the New York Giants.
Good. And toss in ESPN too. Nothing wrong with what VFW 3345 are doing. Hasn't the NAACP called for a boycott of the NFL too? Yes, but for the opposite reason of course. They want more Anti-Americans hired. Or rehired, like Crapondick. Just a quick reminder, this is not just about the Brown's disrespecting our flag and anthem (which is plenty enough), but last year Isaiah Crowell , Brown's running back, posted this...
Maybe the Brown's owner will do something about what his whinny ass little children did if a large number of season ticket holders cancel. Empty seats are one thing that these greedy owners understand. The NFL Owners may deny it, but they all lost some money last year because of Crapondick and friends. And they are going to lose a lot more. Boycotting the NFL is the one thing that is easy for this country to unite as a whole to do. Why anyone would support their shit disrespecting our flag is beyond me. Watch what would happen, when they tell the f**king cowards that their salaries will all have to be cut in light of the drastically changed economic circumstances they have created. Until people think more about honoring our country and those who gave their lives and put their lives on the line to preserve our freedoms, than watching a game, it won't end. If they don't feel it in the pocket nothing will happen. But even so, don't depend on them having enough honor to do the right thing.
"Gee...our numbers are down. People are mad at us. We must not be communicating our message right. Let's do the same thing all over again and change everything for the sake of one or two butthurt people."
