    I got bad news for Kap. This is as good as it's going to get. Whitey is taking back over the white house. Consider yourself fucked.

    Lol.

    You're just mad because you were cheering for the skins! He was penalized wasn't he?

    To the topic, I'm waiting to see funds delivered by Kap to the agencies he promised them to. Once he does this... I'll have some respect for him. Until that time, I'll continue to think what I have come to understand of him even prior to his attention seeking stunt- he's one of the most unliked players in the NFL for his poor character and his move was not one borne from deep rooted sentiments on the matter... it was one borne from a need to be relevant.

    to be fair, he just did it. it was after the fact that a reporter noticed the film. wasnt anything flashy or attention drawing that I saw initially. he was then interveiwed and stated very succinctly why he did so. media, like 5 yr olds on a soccer field went after it.

    nor is he the first black athlete to have staged some form of protest on a national and international stage..


    so all of the backlash is really saying all lives matter, EXCEPT YOU AND YOURS.

    Not sure if it's been mentioned here but it wasn't until 2009 that NFL players were on the sidelines during the national anthem.
    They were in the locker room and came on the field after playing of the national anthem.

    They were moved to the sideline during the anthem as part of the NFL marketing for the military.

    Not saying this was good or bad. Just pointing it out.

    exactly ... it's part of the machine to keep americans blind to what is really happening ...

    the racism in america is institutionalized and it goes well beyond cops shooting unarmed black men ... having said that - I do believe it's shifting slightly to be an oppression of class more and more ... specifically economic class ...

    And there is a LOT of military propaganda going on at NFL games btw. They have people in the military specifically assigned to brainwashing sports fans. And they pay the NFL to do it.

    You are all missing the issue. Kapernick is doing this because of his new girlfriend. He is pussy whipped. This is a societal issue that needs to be dealt with, and it is always ignored by the mainstream media.

    interesting to hear the stances of other teams ... USWNT, USA Hockey ... i find it weird someone could actually issue a press release that talks about how america is the land of freedom and liberties but at the same time say people do not have the right to wage a silent protest ...

    if you are representing your country in an international competition you should stand for the Anthem. if Rapinoe doesn't want to support her country and anthem then she shouldn't be on the National team in my opinion.
