I'm not saying he deserved an award but you literally can't make any rational argument that what he did was not courageous.
All he did was draw attention to himself and spout shitty opinions.
I associate the word courageous with guys like Steve Gleason. Or someone like Warrick Dunn who has done far more to actually help the community he advocates for on a daily basis.
I can literally argue all day why Kaepernick isn't even remotely close to what I'd call courageous.

The usage of the word courageous is a lot like the usage of the word reward to me. It doesn't necessarily have positive connotations even though it's assumed to, it just basically means you're not to be deterred.

quote:Yep, tons of negative attention. If you don't think it takes courage(again, whether you agree with his stance or not is irrelevant) to do that knowing the backlash he'd get, then you're clearly too biased to really have a rational discussion on this specific subject.
