Troubled former San Francisco 49ers star Aldon Smith has been arrested for the third time in two months after violating conditions of his bail, US media reported Sunday.

The NFL will consider many different rule changes when the owners meet next week, however, one of these rule changes has nothing to do with football.

Last week, former 49er safety and noted anthem protester Eric Reid, said that he felt his protests were hurting his chances of landing a job.

As the National Football League’s 2017 Week 7 wound down, Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was once again speaking out about the now pervasive protests against the country staged by players during the playing of the national anthem with Jones insisting that the league is suffering “negative” consequences over the continuing protests.

If anthem protests counted as wins, the 49ers would have ranked as one of the best football teams in the NFL on Sunday. Instead, the winless 49ers will have to settle for merely being good at anthem protesting.

A substantially smaller number of 49ers knelt during the anthem, for their game against the Washington Redskins. Last week, more than 20 49ers knelt, and this week, league Commissioner Roger Goodell also issued a memo, saying it was time to “put the anthem controversy behind us.”

The San Francisco 49ers elected to continue the national anthem protests, this weekend, this time protesting as a team and issuing a statement proclaiming “unity” in defiance of those who might disapprove.

When we were kids, I think most of us had dreams of running into professional athletes and having them do something really special for us. However, and this is just a guess, I don’t think many of us dreamed we’d be wearing the jersey of a radical, anti-American activist and then have players reward us with free gaming systems.

Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) said on Tuesday that the federal government should not financially support the NFL because of players’ disrespectful “take a knee” protests during the national anthem.

A reporter for Sports Illustrated was oddly surprised when football fans assumed he was making a political statement by wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey at a recent Bills-Jets game.

At the close of the season, Reed announced that he would stand to honor the anthem and would end his protest starting this season. Reed has now confirmed his decision and said that even the unrest in Charlottesville would not change his mind.
