Folks, it is with a heavy heart that I discuss a topic that has come back into the news and affects me, personally as an American Vietnam War veteran!!! I was sent into the Vietnam War on May 25, 1965 and served 396 days there, before they started the big build up of troops there and I did so because I believe then and still do in supporting our America when it calls on us to protect it and the American people, because it is the right thing to do, even though I now have a 90% disability from that war!! Now we have these National Football athletes bringing shame and disgrace on us by refusing to stand for our flag and the nation anthem that we had so proudly served!!! With their actions of refusing to honor our America, these "selfish and ungrateful rich millionaire Americans are spitting on our America, spitting on the American people, spitting on our flag and just as important spitting on we, the American veterans that served them so proudly and honestly and even gave our lives for them"!!! These NFL athletes are the "cry babies of our America for just because things don't go their way and they think with all of those millions of dollars they can say or do whatever they want to defame and disgrace the America that we put our lives on the line for and even paid the supreme price of giving our lives for this America of ours!! The NFL Commissioner and the NFL owners are just as much to blame for this by not setting an example by stating clearly that "trashing and blaming our America for all of their imagined troubles of these ultra rich NFL athletes will not be tolerated in bringing such dishonor to American veterans and what they did for the American people with the sacrifices that they made!! What would American athletes like the great Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox and Rocky Blier of the Pittsburg Steelers football team as well as every professional athlete that served in honorably in our armed forces think with these attempts to "slander we, American veterans"!! American veterans, there are two ways that we can fight this!! If you have a season ticket for any professional football team, return it and demand a refund and don't support this "crazy revolution that is going on"!! If you do not have a NFL ticket, just simply turn off the TV when the games come on and do not look at them and kill the high ratings for the games!! I like NFL football even though I have never seen a game in person, but there comes a time when honesty, integrity and truth is more important as American veterans than a football game!! Remember. the NFL cannot ignore us if we do not show up for their games and have half empty stadiums and if we give the NFL low ratings by not watching it on television for we control the power of the millions of dollars that these "selfish and ungrateful NFL athletes make, so let's use it to get our point across to the NFL that we will not tolerate what they doing to our America and our American veterans"!!!.......(Second blog at tumblr.com/commonman1).......
