You say this with a straight face after Brees was dragged through the mud for something as benign and uncontroversial as respecting the flag.
Your meltdown is even worse because you still don’t get why players spike out against him.
Nothing you say is relevant until you understand why.

What are you even talking about?
I don’t like it when trump injects himself into nfl shite either and I’m a trump supporter so wtf is your point?
Trust me I hated politics way before the Trump shite started in 16

white america needs to buy into the blame game. nothing is about helping or fixing.

This is weak.
I, like most, have no quarrels with this movement. Its the residual double standards and general dumpster fire reaction of modern discourse that has me and a lot of fans on all sides of the issue frustrated. This entire debate was handled in the trashiest manner possible.
Stick to flaming football.
Sure thing, black Yoda.

Do you think Brees’ teammates were mad at him because he was “sticking up for the flag”.
Simple question

Yes chad, cause your racist arse really wants to help & fix things. You are too far gone to bring up that. Stop pandering, everyone knows what you are

It doesn't matter what you or I think. They could have interpreted his comments in a different context, or missed an opportunity to understand what he was trying to say. Maybe they genually thought he was a seething racist, and were deeply let down. They could have been more sensitive than usual considering whats going on right now, and Brees was naive to that (apparently due to his hopeless white ignorance). In spite of all that, its still not a bianry issue. You can support the movement without accepting the manner in which some people choose to protest. There are many protesters at the tip of the spear rejecting the looting and rioting.
Does that make them less black? The point, which you continually avoid, is that there is a right way to handle differences and a wrong way, not just in football but in any professional environment.
This was the wrong way.

The fact that you are getting defensive over a yes or no question tells a lot,

I've been around long enough to know that when arguments morph into "melt" accusations and snotty one liners, white flags abound. I do apreciate your attempt, though.
It's Wednesday June 10, 2020 and the Saints are still a trailer fire.

My dude, you are trying to form an opinion on why YOU ARE mad, not why the PLAYERS were upset with Brees.
You can call it whiteness, politically motivated, whatever you'd like.
You can be white and empathize with them. But im some cases, your whiteness prevents you from doing that. As you continually show, because you do not get it.

That’s strange. I also keep hearing I’ll “never understand”.
So which is it?
Posted on 6/10/20 at 11:46 am to Lester Earl
Do you hear yourself? You state that whites inherently can't understand how blacks feel, you call posters racist, then suggest that another anonymous poster is raising racist children.
But WE are the intolerant ones.

You think Brees' teammates are mad at him because he takes up for the flag. LMAO

I think he's wondering if he should even bother since he keeps being told that he will NEVER understand.
I think a lot of folks are starting to feel that way.

But you don't know me. And you don't know any of these players. You are stereotyping, and despite what your sociology professor told you, that's not OK to do because you are black.
I think I've made it clear where I am on this issue. I support the fight against racism and police violence, but I don't see how kneeling and riots endear ANYONE to a resolution born in unity. I don't get my panties twisted about the flag, but for many Americans (both black and white) it's a sensitive issue. I respect that opinion as well. Kneelers know its provocative, or else they wouldnt do it.
You want us to understand how Michael Thomas feels, than try to understand how other people with other opinions might feel. The sensitivities of Brees and Thomas are not worth more because they are celebrity athletes.
But once again, you can try to debate me on the issue of racism in police forces and continue to label strangers on a message board as "racist" ( which is lazy af) or you can grow up and acknowledge the fact that teammates having this spat on social media was a bad idea.

I don’t have to know you when you are typing at me how you feel. Are these your feelings or not?
Save the long paragraph. I haven’t tried to debate you on police brutality or anything of the sort. Or rioting. Or kneeling. I haven’t mentioned any of that even once.
You’re being super defensive here. Go back to my original posts to you. You are going off on an unrelated tangent.
