Groping only? :doh:
Harvey is suffering the consequences. Trump was elected president and his disgusting words were ignored by his loyal fans.
You're right. Trump has nothing to do with the NFL.

hehe!Bill who? Clinton? No.
I wasn't old enough to vote
Thank GOD for small favors.
He's been accused of doing what Trump did. So bad enough.
Nope a number of credible people have all come forward. And of course, Trump was caught on an open mic, bragging about doing it.

Says Sheldon Richman
Those who don’t want sports politicized should say: no flags, no anthem, and no military. Rid private functions of all symbols of the church-state. Then play ball.
That would be a start.
Why not each team pledge to state flags?

LOL...I would oppose based on principal that no flag deserves a pledge, but that would seem better than pledging to the empire.
I think every country has them :idunno:

I didn't say anything was wrong with a pledge, an anthem or a flag....
But let's not pretend these are not political...that's why they exist in the first place.
It's been said here that the NFL players should not be political...I agree. So get rid of all the politics in a private sector game and this issue would not have happened.
Weinstein's accused of multiple rapes, President Trump never said anything about rape or assault. He complained about people, and how they are, when they're around what he termed "stars." Basically, they lose their minds. Mr. Weinstein is allegedly a multiple rapist, nobody's accusing President Trump of that. Apples and oranges.
:blabla: :spam: :troll:

Right, it isn't Kapernick who decided to bring the flag/anthem into the game. That was already there and Kapernick chose to use it as a platform to get his message out.
No, that's not really what he said. And it wasn't a complaint. Here's what he actually said, word for word, about how HE reacts to others he feels attracted to.
Trump: Yeah, that’s her. With the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.
Bush: Whatever you want.
Trump: Grab ’em by the [redacted]. You can do anything.
That's a lot of things, but it isn't a complaint. It's about how he takes advantage of power. And it's consistent with some of the other accounts by women who were in subordinate roles about his inappropriate and sometimes aggressively sexual advances.
That's a far cry from Weinstein and a shocking percentage of Hollywood liberals, not to mention the list of democratic sexual criminals.
They should be patriotic to America as a whole.
The flag and the anthem are representative of America as a whole.
That's what they are shunning.
They picked the wrong symbol to shun, and the wrong time to shun it.
That moment when everyone in the stadium stands united, no matter which team you root for.
It's a feel good moment when everyone sets aside their differences for the greater good.
And a few guys ruined that moment by taking that precious moment of unity that so many are fond of and tried to make it divisive.
They turned something beautiful into something ugly.
