President Donald Trump continued his feud with the NFL on Wednesday, offering a morose assessment of the league's future.
"The NFL has to change or their business is going to go to hell," Trump said, via Bryan Armen Graham of the Guardian.
He did offer some praise to Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, however.
Spoke to Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys yesterday. Jerry is a winner who knows how to get things done. Players will stand for Country!

Trump began his attack on the NFL on Friday, asking the league's owners to fire players who continued to protest racial inequality and police brutality during the national anthem. The president's remarks were widely condemned in the sporting community, with LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and several other players across numerous sports blasting Trump for his remarks.
However, Trump continued his offensive, posting three separate Twitter rants on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, condemning the NFL for allowing players to protest during the anthem, while citing declining ratings.
Several teams continued their demonstrations, some refusing to take the field while it played.
