The racist coach created a hostile work environment demanding players disrepect the men and women who serve and protect the USA. By demanding that his players not go onto the field to salute the flag,


Like the racist Titans & Seahawks coach when their players did not take the field ? And Owners who openly supported their players?

He made the huge majority not participate to appease the whiny bitches. His statement about "doing it together as a team" is grade A bologna.

If doing it as a team was important, he should have explained that to the very few that were protesting, not the ones that didn't want any part of this crap.

Total fail.

I don't think he needs to be fired. If we take him at his word he believed he was mitigating the damage. Just went about it in a misguided way. Besides, Steeler ownership is probably the most left leaning in the NFL. tomlin is safe.


Tomlin handled this bullshite the best of all the coaches if you ask me.

Stay as far away from it as possible. He only cares about his team winning games. That's the kind of coach I would rather have.

Actually it was updated to include white Hispanics
as race category.

Seriously,have you never heard the term before?
It kinda makes sense if you're of European decent
raised in an hispanic country.

If anything, Tomlin was trying to split the baby - my best guess is that a majority of Steelers players would have stood, but a significant number would have kneeled or sat. Tomlin was trying to protect the team, IMHO, by keeping them out of it.



So spoil the whole bunch because of a few bad apples? Why should those who wanted to stand have to take a back seat to those who wanted to kneel?

I think Villanueva should be disciplined for showing up his teammates... No matter how many tours he had...

The point of the Steelers not going out for the anthem was so that you didn't know where any of them stood on the issue. I'm sure some honored it, some didnt, etc.

t's time to put a cork in the "you're a racist" bull shite. Tomlin is purported to have been a Clinton supporter. Good for him, WTF ever. This crap is getting out of hand and likely to get worse, it's time for the adults in the room to stand up and be counted.


Why. This is what the left has been doing for years. If they stop we stop

You want to discipline Villanueva, for what you call showing up his teamates? How about his team and teammates understand his past and situation and support him going out for the anthem.

In reality to smooth things over after this storm with the teams fans he is gone. Thing is the commissioner should be responsible for stopping this.

All the commissioner had to do was say the NFL is not your platform to push your agenda.

On your time feel free to push it.
On the NFL's time we play football and stay neutral. People want to see football and not politics.

^^^^ This. Simple as can be. 70% of the NFL's customers are against kneeling.

when you're on a team you abide by the team rules. The team probably voted 52-1 not to go out and he disobeyed anyway
