    Keep their rich, spoiled asses in the locker rooms until the anthem is played.

    That is the flag, ( the symbolic l of our brave soldiers , marines, navy, etc. ) did you know that we drape the coffins with this symbol, not a damn piece of cloth. If you can't respect that then you are one of the traitors of the flag...... no spinning, we had one years ago D

    What? A rich person can't protest racial injustice? Who wrote that rule? You don't have to hate America to make a political statement.... and his statement today was giving a much deserved "f*ck you!" to an orange draftdodging buffoon.

    After Trump disgustingly labeled Kaepernick a "son of a bitch" for exercising his American right to peaceful protest I hoped EVERY NFL player would take a knee today. Bravo, Mr. Fournette.

    Rex, if you got off your azz and hitchhiked to Dover to watch them bring a dead soldier home, would you take a knee when the carried the flag draped coffin past you. Do you think all of these cretins would?

    No, I would not... But a football game is not a funeral procession. I doubt Colin Kaerpernick would in that circumstance, either.

    Why? Because a Marine is automatically correct about everything? You want to hear the opinions of some vets who support Colin Kaepernick?

    It disappoints me to see it too but, in their eyes, it's not about "the flag" per se. It's about injustices and they're erroneously following someone who chose the wrong avenue.

    Today it was more about anti-Trump AND sticking by teammates. I get where all the grief is coming from -and share the sentiment- but try to put yourself in their shoes perspective-wise. Most of us see the world through the eyes of a white man.

    Under your logic nobody should be allowed to protest anything about America, whatsoever.... because those soldiers died for AMERICA, not for a flag.
