Responses:

he's not being fined for supporting cancer awareness, he's being fined for wearing a shoe that doesn't align with a financial contract the NFL has -- nm - decline Nov 1, 09:55 4
- And the protester would not be fined for opposing injustice, he'd be fined for causing a distraction that affects NFL financial contracts... -- nm - Ender Nov 1, 10:22 2
  - Because forcing people to participate in staged patriotic displays for commercial purposes is what America is all about! -- nm* - znufrii Nov 1, 10:43
  - it's not as if people haven't criticized the NFL publicly for those other fines, it's just that they didn't care. -- nm - Reagen Nov 1, 10:25
- Right. -- nm - David Nov 1, 09:58
