LOU: THE NFL KICKED OFF THE WEEK
WITH 11 PLAYERS.
ACTUALLY A COUPLE MORE THAN NOT
PROTESTING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.
OTHER GROUPS, SOME RAISE THEIR
FACE WHILE OTHERS REMAINED IN
THE TUNNEL, STAYED OFF THE FIELD
IN SOMERSET COUNTY FOR THE
INFAMOUS OVER.
THE RATINGS JUST FELL 9% FROM
LAST YEAR'S OPENER.
MORE ANTHEM PROTESTS DOESN'T
BODE WELL FOR THE LEAGUE YET IT
STILL REFUSES TO IMPLEMENT A
LEAGUE WIDE POLICY.
JOINING US TONIGHT, BYRON YORK,
FOX BUSINESS CONTRIBUTOR, GREAT
ABOUT, BUT I WANT TO JUST GET
YOUR REACTION TO AN NFL THAT IS
CAN CANOEING TO PERMIT THIS KIND
OF NONSENSE.
>> WE WILL SEE MORE OF THIS
BECAUSE AS YOU ALLUDED, THE NFL
PASSED A POLICY BANNING
BASICALLY THIS KIND OF DISPLAY
IN THE NFL PLAYERS ASSOCIATION
OBJECTED AND THE LEAGUE HAS
BACKED AWAY AND WE JUST LEARNED
THE LAST DAY OR TWO THAT WERE
NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY -- FOR
THIS ENTIRE SEASON.
>> THAT IS GOING TO RESULT IN
CONSIDERABLY LOWER RATINGS.
THE NFL HAS A LOT OF PROBLEMS.
BUT THE INSULT TO PATRIOTIC
THE FLAG FOR AND DONE.
IT'S GOING TO BE A SIGNIFICANT
FALL OUT AGAIN IN RATINGS.
>> WELL, THERE'S ALWAYS AN
ARGUMENT ABOUT WHY HER NFL
RATINGS GOING DOWN?
AS A TV OVERSATURATION, MAKING
IT A LESS ENJOYABLE GAME TO
WATCH.
THERE IS JUST NO DOUBT THAT THIS
GOOD TO BE VIEWED AS HYPER
POLITICAL.
LOU: GET IT TURNS OUT EVEN ESPN
CONTINUING TO JUST UNRAVEL.
CONGRESSMAN MEADOWS RELEASING
THOSE TWO TAX THAT HAVE BEEN
DISCOVERED BETWEEN PAGE AND
STRZOK AS REPORTED HERE TONIGHT,
JUSTICE AND FBI.
IT IS CRIMINAL WAS THEY ARE
DOING AND YET NO ONE
INVESTIGATING THEM APPARENTLY
AND EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE INTENT
ON IGNORING THE SIMPLE REALITY
THAT THERE IS NO CRIME COMMITTED
BY THIS PRESIDENT, YET THE
SPECIAL COUNSEL CHARGES ON A
MONEY, TIME AND THE GOVERNANCE
OF THE COUNTRY.
>> THIS REALLY INCREASES OUR
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT PETER
STRZOK WAS DOING AS WELL AS LISA
PAGE.
THESE THINGS WERE JUST TURNED
OVER.
YOU HAVE TO ASK WHY WAS BAD.
THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN TURNED
>> REMEMBER WHEN PETER STRZOK
TESTIFIED BEFORE CONGRESS AND
THE BIG DEFENSE WAS HE DIDN'T
LIKE DONALD TRUMP.
WE KNOW THAT.
THEY NEVER LET THAT AFFECT HIS
PROFESSIONAL ABOUT IT.
BREAKING THE RULES AT THE FBI
AND LETTING THAT BIAS AFFECT HIS
WORK.
I THINK THIS REALLY SHEDS A LOT
OF LIGHT ON THE DEFENSE WE SAW
WHEN STRZOK WENT OFF ON CAPITOL
HILL.
LOU: WE ARE IN TROUBLE ON TIME.
>> A LOT OF REPUBLICANS BELIEVE
THAT HE WILL.
THE BIGGEST THING IS LOOKING FOR
IS THE EXTRA PAGES OF THE CARTER
PAGE BY THE APPLICATION.
