And, yet you claimed that being black isnt wrong, Stranger....i am confused by your hypocrisy, but not your racism - purposely muddying the water about the protest is all in a days work for you
it is actually a curse in much of the rest of the worldWhen you call me white, I don't think it sounds like a bad thing.
or possibly all of the war-mongers dyingNow that the NFL is the least watched professional sport, due to the blacks disrespecting the country and flag
yes, fascism is a good thing, i guess. You cannot refrain, or take a knee, you must pledge you faith to the state, or be excommunicated. "No one could trade or do business unless they have the mark."Good for him.
now the circus needs to die along with the stale bread and the decadent empire, more like. here, you can listen to it passing away if you like BitListen - Bitcoin Transaction VisualizerSomeone finally has the courage to do it. Now the NFL needs to enforce it throughout the League.
i dunno, sounds pretty much like what i can get in any bar bro, no offense, hardly strange at all.Stranger
i am terminally white, and i and many, many others agree; we just mostly aren't interested in watching mock battle for fun, making what K did even more Christ-like. Suicide, on an International level! Talk about dying to self! I mean the guy has attained godhood, in 1000 years one will still be able to ref "Kaepernick."One black mans opinion.
Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys has told the team that anyone protesting and disrespecting the flag will not play. Good for him. Someone finally has the courage to do it. Now the NFL needs to enforce it throughout the League.

anyway, as you probably heard the US VP walked out of a game yesterday, and I would check to make sure but some on told me Bud is pulling its sponsorship from the NFL, and don't buy that Jerry Jones stuff he's responding to the reaction to his standing out there in solidarity on that Monday or Sunday night game he was there with the rest of them. his loyalty is to the almighty dollar and its starting to show. of which this is the only way to change the attitude in question here. NFL is a business first foremost and always a business, therefore money talks, especially the loss of it, and that liberal, me me me, horse dump walks. and if the cards play out like they should, then this time next year maybe the media will have different executive leaders making the band play a different tune.
I little advice there stranger, this isn't about race, and those who would contend with you want it to be about race and not the truth of the matter. its about whether or not Kirkpatrick should have been fired or not. thing is, the stadiums are the property of the community in most cases so even if a team is playing a home game they are gests of the community.
anyways a correction on that Bud stuff it seems I was miss informed they're only watching the situation. and offering a hotline for disgruntle opinions (trying to appease the situation, you know, give out that warm and fuzzy that they care). maybe everyone should try another beer. I hear Coors tastes much better anyway.
Yes Jones is wealthy. But a wealthy man can be patriotic also. As you say though it is when the pocket book is affected is when change will come. Which is why everyone needs to boycott the NFL.
Appreciate your advice. I tend to disagree though. I think this is all about race. And the black race is using the NFL as a venue for their racism. I just read that a black ESPN anchor, who had called Trump a white racist is now calling for a boycott on all things Dallas Cowboys.
Indeed, there is always another beer.
Stranger
well on the race issue that's my point those who are unscrupulous (note a media personality) will attempt to make it that, because then it justifies and makes everyone who does disagree and or boycotts the NFL a racist, in public opinion if they can control the "narrative" as they like to call it. the American media is the public's no. one enemy whether they know it or not. also even though Bud hasn't withdrawn its sponsorship yet, there is a glimpse of hope this is turning up the pucker factor on the NLF's part, as in this is the first warning, because why would Bud jump in to do damage control.
those owners are all wealthy Jones just likes to flaunt t his a little, what ever he's allowed. but again he was out there the day the Steelers stayed off the field for the anthem, in his solidarity mode, he's now in his business mode.
see the racist card is a great manipulator tool, no one wants to be perceived as a racists, even if they are one. (unless one is a Nazi or something like it) if you remember not to long ago how racist guilt was played at every turn and opportunity, especially with media. they seek to cause the same to save ground, and the lie seems to be beginning to fester into what it really is.
they tried to make a racist issue out of a few incidents or more than a few out of mistakes made by police officers around the country (mainly media because racist controversy always holds attention of the public) if you are dumb enough to provoke some one that is permitted to have a gun and use it as he or she sees fit, shame on your moron-ness. anything after that is a court issue whether the cop was out of order or not, and has nothing to do with personal race issues the cop may or may not have had.
if one hates you just because they want to, so what, but if they break the law its another thing all together.
this is one of the reasons they don't like Trump, he challenges their wisdom to play the demonizing of those who don't like or agree with them.
No, it's a race issue pure and simple. The protest is about the supposed mistreatment or inequality of blacks in the U.S. The black NFL players are sitting or taking a knee or raising a fist during the national anthem in order to disrespect the anthem, country, and flag.

God bless them, every one! Patriotism does not feed them, nor does the sly involvement of fascist politics in their chosen profession. Pretty sure they have a viable lawsuit, too.Biting the hand that feeds them.

never been against the law to take a knee, either, and we have laws that are not being enforced concerning discrimination and right to work, too; so, "yep."nope they have contracts that require certain behavior, and they are in stadiums that are paid for by the community (in most cases) of which they are guests, also, who going to sue who? its been never against the law to not buy Bud or NFL stuff,
who ever voiced any opinions, before a game? Never saw that myself. If they are "voicing opinions," then so are those who stand, right?and we are not required to give any attention to broadcasts of any games. its business plain and simple, if they want to voice their opinions on events
that agreement would be invalid under the Constitution, obviously, you cannot write a legal contract requiring a signator to be "patriotic," the same way you cannot discriminate upon other bases, religion, etc.they have plenty of money and means to do so outside of the game, of which no one would say they couldn't or shouldn't.
if a employee while working and representing the company did the same they would be fired, because the company is not required to up hold or promote or represent the employee's views on anything. the employee's actions would be a breach of agreement.

a lot, we could go on at length if you likewhat the hey do you know about contracts and the constitution, really.
of course it should be realized that we are talking about a case here that no one wants to prosecute, nor defend, as this link reveals better than i could, but it should be apparent that you cannot discriminate on the basis of age, race, or beliefs, while you can discriminate on the basis of character deficiency, as defined by the law. Iow if you are "doing anything detrimental" to the image, you are also breaking a law, you're getting drunk and arrested or whatever, with the emphasis on the "arrested" part, since the NFL could care less if you played drunk lol, as long as you played better or whatever.these guys do anything detrimental to the public image of the NFL according to the NFL, and they are in breach of contract because its in their contract of which they get paid handsomely to agree to. where have you been?
no its not about the protest, its about where the protest toke place, and the action of the protest. if the said players would have taken up their cause in any other place that would be appropriate, nothing would be said about it other than the usual talking heads of media. would their? employees expressed their views where no one employing them were required to support their views nor tolerate the use of what the employees didn't pay for. its a breach of etiquette and agreement, they could vent their views anywhere else, and this thread wouldn't be here.
