    Forget that we lost to the worst team in the league. A team that scored on itself. A team without it's highest paid player. A team that hasnt won at home since December 1st. A team that led by 18 at one point.

    Never forget Malcolm X!

    Days we forgot about the great Malcolm X: 0

    Oh good grief. Another attention seeking moment when he should be focusing on how bad his team is.

    sometimes you have a feeling you're living in the 60's with all this ''important'' people talking about black history. Like, OMFG, the guy keeled during an anthem. , that's superhero like.

    Some people still not getting the reason he kneeled. It’s a shame we live in a society that lacks understanding, humility and awareness. Every race, gender, belief, etc has dealt with adversity but for people to act like people of color in this country haven’t had a more challenging time with dealing with adversity, discrimination, racism and inequality is what makes this conversation carry on. Simply acknowledge the clear gap in indifferences and the way one set of people are viewed and treated versus another set of people. It’s not hard to see it’s a divide and that some rights and exceptions are favored more for one group of people versus another.

    We can't get to agreement if we do not engage in proper communication. If I am trying to send you a message and you are offended by what I said, then I need to change the message, particularly if I want you to agree with me. I would even apologize as no offense was intended.

    If instead, I double down on that offensive message then all that will happen is that you will only see what you perceive to be offensive and will never recognize the message. The onus is always on the person who is trying to convey a message to frame it in a manner that the recipient will understand.

    Trump evangelicals will never aknowledge the reason why they protest. If you think otherwise, that's your problem. They act offended and legally re ed in order to deflect from the topic at hand.

    "Black lives matter is a racist name. Do other lives not matter?"
    /becomes a part of blue lives matter

    "Kneeling is offensive to muh troops!"
    /votes for someone that insults captured vets and semen shields for slack jawed hick who disrespected a native American vet

    "Stay outta muh country"
    /supports the confedaracy

    "Kanye is an outside thinker!"
    /hates holywood elites lol

    "Fake news!"
    /watches Tucker Carlson

    They can protest differently, but they wont ever care. Trump evangelicals hate social justice and equality. Dont believe me? Look at their child meltdowns over Gillete telling them to be kind....

    That’s a strong and affirmative approach for either side. The part that isn’t so easy is one group of people is on the defense because of all the unjust and systematic oppression. While the other group of people are making a effort to point out that things aren’t all that bad as the other group is making it seem. The unfortunate side of all this is that such a divide amaongts people and point of views have got to a point where each side is holding firm on there opinions and beliefs. At the end of the day we as a whole have to unite if we ever want to see real change. When you start to understand how the game is truly played you realize racism, favoritism, socialism and other aspects that keep us as a people divided is the real problem. I’m not saying what has happened in history should be ignored but if we all collectively want to see change, then we’ll have to come together as a people. The last part to that is one group have never needed to change anything about the way there lives are constructed because they’ve always been in a favorable position. That’s ultimately another reason that makes unification that much more unrealistic. If your livelihood and way of life isn’t being threatened then there isn’t a need to oppose the structure that’s already in place. Of course all this is just wishful thinking at this point but it’s the only solution.

    So, they why get upset when a member of the media baits him with a politically charged question and he answers honestly?

    Especially when we know he is left leaning and willing to openly state that in public?

    Kind of surprised the lack awareness our current culture has of the intersection of social activism and sports throughout American history.

    I get it, the team is bad so he should only talk and think about that.....

    Is it really a communication problem? We all speak the same language, and we certainly communicate just fine when when there are no disagreements.

    Sometimes certain people opt to look the other way instead addressing alleged grievances head on. That's when it turns from a communication problem to an attention problem.

    Then the roles flipped. He kneeled and got their full attention. But they still don't want to address the alleged grievance, just the kneeling. And he won't pay attention. Now they know how it feels.

    The Not So Great Dinghy, take your racism and stupidly ignorant bigotry and shove it up your stinking ass. If you want others to bow down to your hero then don't spit on the others. Do you secretly dream about sucking Louis Farrakhan's ?Martin Luther King, Jr. was a great man who both Blacks and Whites appreciate and respect. He would not allow hatred to enter his heart. Malcom X and Louis Farrakhan spent most of their lives dealing in racism, bigotry and hatred of us white guys. Yes, Malcom X changed a lot of his thinking before he was assassinated but, he did a massive amount of damage for the better part of his adult years. And Farrakhan is a totally worthless POS. In closing I say go to .

    Probably the most entertaining one was watching them shoot up all of their expensive Yeti , and post it on social media...because Yeti ended a swath of promotion codes, one of which was the NRA.

    If he was asked then he shouldn't be slammed for answering, that's just silly.
