Could you imagine a white guy out there giving a Bellamy salute.

They honestly can do whatever they want and they know it. You aren't going to stop watching their games or buying tickets, so quit bitching.

Why does someone's constitutional right piss you off? People fought and died so they'd have that right, and your pissy attitude about the opening ceremony of a game is a disgrace to them.

Did you not pay attention to world history Era 1939-1945?

It's not the freedom of speech part, but the double standard. if a white man made some sort of white power guesture he's labeled a racist and all that.

Easiest way to fix this issue is to not show it. But we all know ESPN would never do this.

My guess would be they don't know what it means.

ESPN salivates at the chance to show these players disrespecting the country when they should keep that shite off camera and let it die off.

If fans would turn off the TV for a few games then we could make a difference.

I've about sworn off the NFL and NCAA Basketball.

Can you give an example of a "white power gesture"?
