Saturday night, former Dodgers announcer and Hall of Famer Vin Scully was at the Pasadena Civic Center for an event called "An Evening With Vin Scully."

During the event, Scully was asked about the NFL's national anthem protests, in which players have taken a knee during the anthem.

To that, Scully replied he "will never watch another NFL game" because of the protests.

Scully, who will turn 90 later this month, briefly served in the navy before beginning his broadcasting career.

He said he has “overwhelming respect for anyone who puts on a uniform” and is “so disappointed” with the NFL players.

So far only one MLB player, Athletics catcher Bruce Maxwell, has knelt during the national anthem.
