And he's out of a job because of it...and likely so toxic he may never catch on with a team again....and yes I know the Texans were talking about him.
Think he'd do the same stupid shite again given the chance to go back in time?

If I protest at my work, I get fired and rightly so.
He wants to protest, get in front of a camera before or after the game and express yourself. I'll support that right all day long. People come to be entertained...not to be subjected to someone else's political views.

Frick him and the horse he rode in on.

That's your boss' prerogative (generally). Of course. Just like NFL teams can choose to not touch him because the distraction isn't worth his value as a player. I'm not arguing against any of that

That's pretty much exactly what he's done. What am I missing here?
