The NFL situation
 
That spoiled brat may have started something that will grow into something very ugly.

Ironically this situation could only help trump.

Maybe, maybe not.

All that matters to the NFL is if he can play and win.

Guest 08-29-2016 10:55 PM

I hope other blm players follow his lead, bring lots of attention and other consequences.

Guest 08-30-2016 02:56 AM

Nothing new. Black athletes have made statements before, they'll do it again. Remember the 1968 Mexico Olympics with track and field stars bowing their heads and Black Power fists in the air as the anthem was played? Like it or not, many blacks -- privileged, middle class, poor -- still feel disenfranchised in America.

Help Trump's campaign? I doubt it. He already has the White Supremists on his side. Don't think this will change anything.

Enough is Enough
 
I find it ironic that because someone has celebrity status people actually listen to them. Donald Trump said it best when he came back at Robert Di Nero's slight. Trump said he's talented but not too smart. Di Nero is now stumping for Trump. Another celebrity who is very active but not too smart is Sean Penn and best of all we have many with the likes of Kenyae West who states he will be president in 2020. Then we have Beyonce who made a tribute to the Black Panther's at the half time superbowl event....and the beat goes on

This nation twice elected a black president who by the way was elected because of his color and not the content of his quality as presidential material. Looking far wide and in between we see many people of color holding down good jobs and important position in and out of government.

too many blacks continue with this ghetto mentality of being victims and people discriminated against. Its locked in their very essence and in some way the same type of indoctrination that sends terrorist into the streets. More whites are killed by cops then blacks and yet more blacks commit crimes than whites...and the beat goes on because guys like sharpton have to keep it going to make a living and sharpton is as close to a radical inman as one can get and he has Obama's ear
and welcome with pen arms many times to that big white house on the hill in Washington DC

I stopped watching major sports long ago including the Olympics because of this political nonsense and because "show me the money" attitudes have driven out the element and spirit of competition and now all people are rooting for are empty suits. Once players were proud and honored to wear the pinstrips...not anymore.

I for one am tired of the tirades tired of of the white guilt that makes unreasonable allowances for this sort of nonsense. I mind my business. I follow the rules. I try and get along.

Enough is enough.

Sticks and stones
 
There is also another aspect to the NFL situation. First Amendment rights are guaranteed to offend someone. I hold it in contempt when an actor or athlete publicly and actively shows disdain for his/her country especially when they have had the good fortunate to receive more of its blessings than most. Its crude, rude, selfish arrogant, ignorant,hateful, spiteful and just plain unintelligent. However it is their right. In that same vein then I say the baker who refuses to bake a cake for a homosexual wedding because it is offensive to his religious beliefs also has that same right. However we see that liberal nanny government finds that so illegal as to destroy this baker's living. We find hip hoppers who are kool to use the "n"word and yet if a white person uses it in any fashion well then the liberal establishment demands their heads on a platter

Liberals have created this trigger warning micro aggressive safe space insanity.

I liked it better when people understood that sticks and stones may break your bones by names will never hurt you...and yes I understand the law term defamation but that is not what I am referring to here.

RGJ exclusive: Chris Ault on Kaepernick, "You never lead by sitting down"

I agree with what Coach Chris Ault has to say about Colin Kaepernek. You do not lead by sitting down.

Kaepernek has been making some really stupid choices of late.

Colin Kaepernick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Correction on spelling.

Guest 08-30-2016 06:27 AM

My gut thinks that Colin can't be this stupid. Possible other motives.

Trying to stop niners from cutting him, will claim racism.

More likely trying to pivot to another career and is trying to gain fame or infamy. Thugs make great money in show business.

There needs to be boycotts of any products endorsed by those that disparage America or its values. Let our free speech be heard.

If the NFL lets this blm grow many will drop their NFL packages, I hope.

Guest 08-30-2016 06:49 AM

"Black lives matter", will be the rallying cry that destroys this country. It will be at the expense of "white lives".

They said that they are likely to cut him. He's just worried so he is trying to hedge his bet by hinting of a racism accusation if they drop him. Even if they keep him, he will be sitting on the bench. As much as he will be sitting, I am surprised he doesn't take advantage of a chance to stand for the National Anthem.

Guest 08-30-2016 09:49 AM

I'm sure that Hillary will blame Trump for this blatant act of racism.

Guest 08-30-2016 10:36 AM

Donald Trump on Colin Kaepernick: Find another country

"I have followed it and I think it's personally not a good thing. I think it's a terrible thing, and you know, maybe he should find a country that works better for him, let him try, it's not gonna happen," Trump told The Dori Monson Show on Monday

Hey maybe he'll get a nice injury to keep him off the field completely.

I'm sure there are players trying hard to sack him.:pray:

Well that douche bag one year wonder has demonstrated he can't play...49ers should tell him "Your FIRED!"

Whats up with the NFL's personal conduct policy? NFL athlete's personal lives are considered a reflection of the NFL by the NFL. Example: A guy disciplines his child with a switch and gets suspended, a guy physically abuses his wife or another woman he gets suspended. But, a guy shows disrespect to the country and nothing is done about it?

It's full of blacks, it's how they act. You don't get this kind of behavior in "white" sports. The black sports, football, basketball...always problems with the players.

He does not play -- where are you ? He carries a clipboard on the sidelines during games but mostly he pouts and gets paid about $10 to $12 Million a year .

And he is not really a very strong back up .

Great job if you can get it . For most people after 2 years they would have saved about $10 Million which should set them up pretty well .

It's hard to go against the grain. Look how hard it was for Michael Moore and Donald Trump to be against the war after 9/11.

Nice bait job.

Too bad the other team mates don't walk over and stand in front of the losers. I hope each one of these losers get a broken leg while they are sitting on the bench, by one of the real players running off the field. Scumbag losers!

Just because you have a constitutional freedom, does not mean that it is right to abuse it.

Unbelievable. :ohdear:

So which of your constitutional freedoms....do you think should be limited?

And whom do you think should make the determination on how/when they be limited...or when it should be considered 'abuse?'

Anxious for your reply. :popcorn:

Just a guess, but I bet you get called stupid a lot. :popcorn:

You are typical of liberals and why socialism would never work in America. You feel that if one is not allowed to take full advantage of a gift, then that gift is being limited. Tell me again, where in the H3LL you got limited from my one line comment? I have met some fairly intelligent gays before, but you are definitely not one of the intelligent ones.

"Not being able to take full advantage" IS THE definition of 'limited'...you ignorant twit. :ohdear:

By the actual definition of 'limited.'

Seriously, no one could make up this level of stupidity. :D

Wow, you think that is a good trait? Sorry, but I have NEVER had a drink in the Town Square. I only go down there when I have company. I can see why I don't like it there if there are very many like you drinking and stumbling, attempting to do the Hillary Trip.

No, I was not throwing anything at you, just making an observation. If you are not gay, you sure enjoy your flamboyant frills and little silly characters. I figured it was a foregone conclusion that you would be gay. So, labeling you as gay bothers you? Are you saying that you are against gays? So, you do feel that gays are deviant in nature and should be ostracized? Wow, what kind of liberal are you anyway.

I apologize for labeling you as gay. You must really feel like I called you a dirty name. I am sure that being gay must be abhorrent to you, right?

Have a great rainbow day

Better than you calling someone a bigot, or a racist, or a misogynist when you disagree. You REALLY think that bothers anyone? Maybe in kindergarten.

We KNOW we're right, so all your stretching the truth to defend yourself is a waste of time, calling us names is a waste of time. Spend your time researching what goes on in the black/Hispanic ghettos. Once you shake off the brainwashing, the propaganda, you'll be trying to limit them too.

Courage is KNOWING you're right, being right, and standing up to everyone else who is wrong.

It's also what you have, THINKING you're right, standing up for what you believe. When you're wrong.

I can admire you for taking bullets. I can't admire you for being so obviously wrong but still believing the dogma.
