Ravens Believe Anthem Protest Has Impacted Home No-Shows

[RealGM Wiretap]

In a letter to season-ticket holders, suite holders and sponsors, the Baltimore Ravens believe the national anthem protest is one of the reasons why 

"The numbers [of no-shows] are higher, and it is noticeable," Cass wrote in the 656-word letter. "There are a number of reasons for the no-shows, but surely the one-time protest in London has been a factor."

The Ravens' first protest as a team occurred in London on Sept. 24, when more than a dozen players knelt during the national anthem before the first NFL game of the day.

The Ravens knelt again at home before next week's game. Fans at M&T Bank Stadium booed the players when they took a knee.

The Ravens have not since protested.

Most people in the stands are making good money and most people who make good money vote for Trump because they hate losing their money to tax.

I make okay money and didnt vote for Trump. I think this is what they get, although Trump said this would happen. I think if they want to protest they can do it on their own time. I havent seen to many ppl protest outside of the anthem. I would get fired if I protested while being clocked in at my job even if I felt it was right.
Our flag stands for something and it shouldnt be used as a time of protest. Why arent they protesting after the football game? How many of them are actually trying to change what they are protesting? I believe there are a select few that are actually donating money to this charity and that charity and/or speaking out.
Great example actually is Kapernick. He knelt knowing what may happen. He doesnt have a job now. Is that stopping him from doing right and doing his movement. Not at all, this guy has donated to the charity of the cause,hes helped out in bad areas and now hes the lone voice for the movement. He believed in what he was doing compared to these other players who use it as an excuse.

The Ravens owner is an idiot and it a pretty convenient to blame the players kneeling during the anthem to for overall lack of interest in football.

If they just signed Kap when Flacco injury occurred in the summer it would have avoided all of this

Kap is no martyr. He's just a very marginal QB who's judgment cost him his job. He opted out of his contract and overvalued his own skillset. That's all on him. Now he suing the owners? I mean this is strike three. The guy is just an entitled selfish brat.

You can choose what you want, but you don't get to choose the consequences to your choices.

Argument doesn't make sense. Stat wise he the best QB in history left unsigned.

Makes perfect sense. If you hurt your employers bottom line. How long do you think you're going to be around. This isn't Tom Brady here

Where the proof he hurt the employers bottom line though? 49ers actually sold more tickets in 2016 than previous years. Surely signing worse QBs , Texans , and losing games is worse from the bottom line than selling more tickets.

The proof is in the stands. The proof is in the fact he's still unsigned. But go ahead feel free to keep your head in the ground and pretend it's something else.
