why are you posting quotes from a dumb racist?
football games are my safe space

Football players are part of a business. When they put on their uniform they are at work, and the workplace is not a place for your political views. Stand for the flag, you have the freedom to express your views outside of work. I don't hear people complaining saying, "oh why can't football players celebrate in the end zone, it's taking away their free speech!"
its a business, be professional. I'm glad Adam Silver sent a memo out about standing for the national anthem.
Mandatory and enforced displays of patriotism are the opposite of freedom.
*ding*
Did not mention Clinton or former president
Any attempt to change the subject is dingworthy. Seeing you guys are still trying to use Chicago is proof that Trump is failing to stop det American carnage tho.
As a part of his pledge to donate $1 million to “organizations working in oppressed communities,” the Colin Kaepernick Foundation donated a whopping $25,000 to an organization called Assata's Daughters. The group describes themselves as a Chicago direct action resistance organization honoring Assata Shakur.
But here's where it goes south. Shakur was found guilty of murdering a police officer, Werner Foerster, and was placed in prison.
Another reason to be terrified of black people!
“In that spirit, the Jacksonville Jaguars – every one of us – prior to the national anthem on Sunday will kneel to pray for change, progress and equality for everyone who calls the United States their home. We hope others will pray along with us. We are all in this together.
“The Jacksonville Jaguars will then stand together, as a team, tomorrow and going forward, to honor our flag and our national anthem.”
Multiple other teams have announced similar plans, with the common denominator being standing for the anthem. To the extent that other avenues can be created for expressing valid concerns that previously were expressed only during the anthem, players can then stand for the anthem and bring to an end the controversy that has engulfed the league for more than a week.
Can you dance naked at work?
Damn, they gonna let Trump win
Where is dancing naked enforced as a display of patriotism?
Crazy Horse in Vegas
So what's your point?
Certain businesses are built for certain purposes. Football players are paid to play football.
Right, so what's the problem?
There is going to come a time in the near future where these old whte billionaire owners can know longer fake that they really give a about blacks other than as players. Watch how quickly all this kneeling, other bull comes to an abrupt halt.
And, we have seen enought, we all get it so now it really is time to drop it and get back to why people are in the stands and watching the game on tv and it's not.....poor black man.
a couple minutes BEFORE the game has nothing to with game.
The owners never have, never will give a about any player, any color, except when the Super Bowl is in play. See the article I posted about owners.
Leave politics out of it
It's not interfering with their job at all.
