So I just finished watching the news and apparently the San Francisco quarterback Kopen refused or sat through the Nation Anthem. He said something about not standing because of black lives matter. Let me tell you something you POS. I don't care about black, blue, purple or green lives mattering. All lives matter. You are an American. You stand and show your respect for our flag, our song, our country. It is sad that the NFL does not have the balls to punish you the way I would. I would take away some of those American Dollars you earn and seem to love. Grow up boy. Be a Man. Set an example beyond trowing a football. Be an American.

Why not protest why a HUGE % of black men bail on their kids and that has a lot to do with why we see all these problems with blacks.

I wasn't allowed to run the streets and if I'd been late getting home my dad would have kicked my ass, just like I would have done if my son had been late.

And, an NFL football field isn't about his personal opinions anywhere.

Stupid move and he needs to be dumped.

Then tell the NFL to negotiate contracts with coverage that takes the cameras off of him ya dumb . You think the NFL does this?~~~~~Nope~~~~~ Sheeeesh. You fail to realize the NFL is in the entertainment business. This thread has legs. And the TV and press coverage gets a big smile$$$

New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz, a black Puerto Rican American, chided his fellow NFL player for making it personal and racial.

"Regardless of how you feel about the things that are going on in America today and the things that are going on across the world with gun violence and things like that: You've got to respect the flag and stand up with your teammates," Cruz told USA Today's Lorenzo Reyes.

"It's bigger than just you."

Cruz's teammate Justin Pugh tweeted his opinion on saluting the flag.

I don't see anything wrong. Colin Kaepernick made a peaceful demonstration of what he believes. He didn't abuse anyone or call anyone any names. Americans say derogatory things about their country and the people in it every single day. That's their right. What's the problem other than him being a ty QB?

[tlongII]

I have no problem with his actions. He still sucks though.

cruz said how he did it was all about him
he could have lead an effort he could use some of his money to help fight his cause

You are delusional.

Who cares what Cruz says? Since when is he the authority on anyone's motives? All we've heard all year is how politically correct the country is getting and as soon as someone goes against the grain the sky is falling. It's OK for our Presidential candidates to tear down the country and say whatever they want about anyone but a ty football player can't express his views peacefully?

if Colin doesn't think America is great than he needs to leave! stop the whining and leave.

Trump doesn't think America is great

Lol at protesting a system that allows him to make tens of millions of dollars for being a ty quarterback. If he really wants to protest, why not refuse to play for the man. Then he might be taken seriously.

I can't make sense of that. Here's how that shows up on my phone.
