Coates letter: NFL protests
If all those spoiled, rich, overpaid, pampered, glamorized, out-of-touch, professional football players of the NFL that refuse to show any respect for the American flag and national anthem, why should they be paid in American dollars. You know the currency with the pictures of America’s Founding Fathers who were also slave owners and the words “In God We Trust.” Maybe they’d be happier receiving pesos.
