    It's way way too late for that.

    I find this whole kneeling for the anthem thing bizarre and disgusting. It was started by an idiot, who also wore pig cop socks, because the media was demonizing cops after a few relatively isolated incidents, that may or may not have been the fault of those cops.
    The media must be loving it. They've infiltrated the NFL with their crap...bastardized the NFL into some reality TV, housewifes drama. Well they can all shove it up their ass, i'm taking my time and money elsewhere.

    I will NOT allow my employees to protest at work. Peacefully or not. Just as I nip any and all political or religious conversations in the bud immediately. It does not belong in the workplace for the easy to understand fact that it creates division and potentially a hostile environment. You want to protest on your own time and dime, knock yourself out. But don't bring that to the work place and create tension with those that oppose. Don't force employers or co-worker (teammates) to have to get involved or chose sides or right from wrong. IMO - It had an impact on a few teams performances yesterday. Less people are speaking up because unfortunately in todays world if you speak up in disagreement, you're automatically considered a racist.

    That isn't exactly apples to apples. You would have to assume we would be in just as good physical shape and have the same God given physical abilities as them to be in the NFL.

    Social Media didn't exist either.

    Thank you for confirming that Obama didn't come close to calling anybody a son of a bitch. He was implying that they were wrong to do so, nothing more. And if Trump had merely implied that Kaepernick was wrong and nothing more then none of this would be an issue now.

    I am CERTAIN that Obama is disdainful of white trash, as am I. But there's a BIG difference... ethically, politically, etiquette-wise, and otherwise.... between stating it and not. And it's a FACT that people cling to their guns, and if you draw insult from that it's because of your OWN habits, not from anything Obama said incorrectly.... while it's NOT a fact that Colin Kaepernick is a son of a bitch.
