re: nevermind

I was just responding to his assertion that kneeling is a sign of disrespect to people who lost their lives in service to the country fighting for freedom.

Again, the irony is pretty big

Man, alot of these guys are kneeling after the Trump comments because that's what they think they should do, because there other Teammates are. It doesn't mean he hates America. . look at the Steelers, they didn't even come out for the anthem .besides there veteran lineman.there just trying to show unity in my opinion. I hate the crap,but there not all leaders man. These kids follow , just the truth

Also I find it funny nobody gave a shite about standing & saluting the flag, until Kap took a knee. Fake arse wanna be patriots

Doesn't have a fkn thing to do with racism. It has everything to do with disrespecting the country that allowed them this incredible opportunity they have. If they don't like it...then gtfo. I applaud Jerry jones

There is no irony. You are black. It is obvious. The fact you ignore the big picture here says it all. Thankfully, this bs isn't going over well in mainstream America. I hope these guys straighten up or lose their jobs. This is the real world. You couldn't get away with whatever you want at a regular employer....the NFL better put a stop to this bs. Asap.

So by the logic you guys are using,JJ watt needs to stop raising money and stfu and play football. No breast cancer awareness month, all cancer matters.. am i right?

I served 6yrs, four of which was in a Ranger battalion. I've been in combat on several occasions and my best friend lost his life protecting American interests. So I get a little pissed when someone shits on his (and other brace men's) sacrifice.
While I respect every man's rights, I do not respect a man who disrespects the country that provides him the lifestyle he's living . You want to be a douche and disrespect our flag and national anthem? Fine, but do it on your own time and not at your place of employment...these men are paid millions to entertain, not to assert their political beliefs.
I'm sure my post will get attacked by some ignorant young punks on here, but until you pick up a rifle and defend our country, keep your condescending comments to yourself.
