re: Regardless of where you stand, you should be disappointed in Brees

Kneeling druing the National anthem is disrespectful to the country and the men and woman who have served and died to protect our freedoms.
Im completely aware that the rights a person is give in this country. The freedom to protest is the American way but to ostracize a person because they feel your form of protest is disrespectful is insane.

Also this fake indepth speeches with moments of "contemplation" are so contrived and a beacon of full of shite.

Black people kill more of each other in Chicago in one month the all cops kill black people in a year.
Where is the outrage for the retired black cop killed by looters in the protest????? His life isnt worthy of protest because a white cop didnt kill him!,seems reasonable.

What’s my schtick? Someone who thinks for himself and speaks what he thinks, regardless of what the enlightened members of this board thinks?

I’d say 80% of the comments in this thread are the reason why the country is currently in the state it’s in. You can have a difference of opinion, but empathy for your fellow man shouldn’t be the one thing you’re short on.

Are you an idiot? So he isn't entitled to his beliefs because they don't jive with the vast minority? You libs are even more pathetic than I thought was possible.

He literally said that he agrees with the movement but just wants a different method of protest because he values the anthem that much. I don’t see why he can’t have that opinion. Just like Kaep has every right to express his opinion. I’m pretty annoyed at the fact that all of these teammates immediately jumped his arse all over social media, knowing full well the kind of man he is.

No one wants to have a real conversation. They’re just waiting for the next headline to come out to get even further infuriated.

I wish I had 50 downvoted to give you.

This whole leader of men shite when it comes to sports is cringeworthy. Especially when they talk about leading into battle. GTFOH with that shite. They play a game for a living, a great living at that. They make millions to play with a ball. Maybe they should grow up.

what.in.the.actual.frick.

So basically what Drew did you are now saying is right? Make up your mind

I get that but Drew didn't pick the time...the time picked him. I will make a statement here for my own feelings. I think the cop that killed this man should be fried. I think ANY cop that steps across the line should be brought down hard! I think the black community self-perpetuates what they call "racism" and yes, they have been treated poorly for a large segment of the history of this country. All these things are true.

Racism is big business and is being propagated by politicians and activists. I have no problem with black men voicing their concern about injustice. I just don't see me as a white man, helps them at all by playing into the narrative the activists are driving into the AA community...that is that white people are your enemies and they want to oppress you. No...the people that seek power and fortune are the ones that oppressing you!!!

Mike Thomas...do you know one man in your life more sincere than Drew Brees? Do you really think he's a racist? Drew Brees has invested more in the black communities of N.O. than Mike Thomas/Jenkins and Kamara combined.

He's made all of you rich! You aren't helping anything by attacking a guy who is without a doubt one of the best people in the NFL! You attack because your heart is full of anger and DB hasn't put it there...you did! Bet you aren't sending money to Minn. to help re-build all the black businesses that got torched by the so-called protests?

GFY

bullshite!! Drew is CORRECT!!
