Cheryl, KEEP IT OFF THE FB FIELD.  Yes, they have their right to protest, just not at an event that is paid for by people who bought tx.  They can do whatever they want on their own time.  They are not entitled to protest at a venue  where ppl can't just get up and leave w/o losing their money.  NO ONE is questioning their right to freedom of speech, period.  The fans are entitled to a peaceful protest as well, i.e. boycott the NFL and sponsors.  What's good for one is good for the other.  Ironic that we are with the players : EQUALITY FOR ALL, just not their methods.
