Peter Schrager claims an Indianapolis cab driver kicked him out over player protests

“I live in New York, you live in New York, and I also do stuff in L.A., and I sometimes think, ‘All right, here’s my worldview.’ I was in Indianapolis, doing a game in Indianapolis, and a cab driver picks me up and says ‘What do you do for a living?’ and I say ‘Well, I work in the NFL.’ And he stops the car, turns around and says ‘You can get out of the car. The NFL is dead to me. The NFL, the fact that these guys take knees, I will never watch the NFL again.’ It was the first time I had a real-life experience face-to-face with somebody who was that charged up about this issue. And I said ‘Wow, that’s crazy.’ And the more you talk to fans who aren’t on the two coasts, the more you aren’t in blue-state territory, this is a real deal and it is affecting the bottom line. And the owners are seeing this.”
It's like this, Americans are proud people, they are friendly they aren't hateful (just speaking in general)....some of them might even agree with the reasons that caused the players to protest, the issue is they don't want the flag, the country, service men and women disrespected as a means of protest.
There's times to protest, there's ways to protest...during your actual job.....not an acceptable time to protest UNLESS you're quitting your job.
