West Pointer and Army Ranger veteran Alexander Villanueva was pressured by the trash Tomlin to stay in the locker room with the entire team to protest during the National Anthem. Boss walked out on the field alone and stood with his hand over his heart. I'm sure ESPN will widely cover this story.

Looks white to me.

Maybe white People should change their names to Spanish names so they are not white any longer.

He might be partially. Villanueva is not a typically Caucasian name.

Great American either way.

So at this point the players are now protesting the president's opinion of a prior protest that none of them can coherently explain?

So Tomlin called out Villanueva for being the only one to show respect for the anthem? Pretty low class thing to do. Disgusting
