Yes, there are political elements, but I feel the thread is mainly over ESPN and the NFL's ratings and while there is SOME discussion on the anthem kneeling, I personally don't feel it's enough, yet, to warrant moving the thread.

Exactly. Some (myself) have mentioned the kneeling as a reason for the ratings drop or why they've personally stopped watching, but we aren't arguing or diving deep into WHY the protests are happening or whether we back them. So far the discussion has remained on topic and isn't very political, so no need to dump it in PnR.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
