And just like that, Trump delivers a stinging blow to the NFL. I said it before he did not need to interject politics into sports, but the players have felt the wrath of the fans and are trying to save face here. Trump wins this round.

The statement from Elway was weak at best yesterday. 

The players have seen that the silent majority just want to watch the game, and they do not want to see a protest while they are on the company clock. For all of the free speech folks who think protesting on the job is ok, does that count for a Christian baker or a County Clerk who issues marriage licenses in Alabama?
