Probably worshiped all his life for being the star athlete.<br /><br />Now, 100 million dollars later, he's concerned about "Police brutality" and he's wearing a Che T-shirt, insulting socks, and yaking about the "oppression of black America". THe NFL is 66% black and bet at least half of them are millionaires. Yet, he's "oppressed". <br /><br />I don't really care about that. But when you insult the flag, you're insulting the country all the men and women who've fought and died for it. Why the hell can't you love your country AND be against police brutality?<br /><br /><br /><br />rcoceanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17102201338319611538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-67163529033039411652016-09-02T17:41:50.551-04:002016-09-02T17:41:50.551-04:00Goodell certainly has.Goodell certainly has.edutcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15033144261502435196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-48315082800021492952016-09-02T17:22:15.697-04:002016-09-02T17:22:15.697-04:00The history of the National Anthem at sporting eve...The history of the National Anthem at sporting events begins before the Star Spangled Banner was even the official national anthem. It had periodically been played at sporting events but the seminal event was directly related as are so many things in baseball with the great Babe Ruth.<br /><br />In the 1918 World Series between the Babe's Boston Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs of all things they played the Star Spangled Banner during the seventh inning stretch. It was the Babes last game as a member of the inferior team and right during the entrance of America into the First World War. Fred Thomas of the Sox who was on active duty at the time but was loaned out by the War Department for publicity purposes. When the military band struck up the song at the seventh inning Stretch Thomas saluted as the song was being played. The rest of the team spontaneously put their hands over the hearts and the crowd began to sing along.<br />This proved so popular that they began to play it on holidays and special events and eventually at every game.<br /><br />Of course that was when America was populated by Americans. Who loved their country. Honored the brave citizens who served them in the Armed Forces. <br /><br />There were problems at the time. There had been a terrorist attack that very year right there in Chicago when the Wobblies set a bomb off in the Federal Building. Anarchists and socialists and other malcontents were assassinating law enforcement officers and fomenting sedition.<br /><br />In those days they would have know what to do with someone like Kaperdick. At the very least he would lose his job. <br /><br />The NFL has jumped the shark.Trooper Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978703998566102194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-635814267928419442016-09-02T17:21:21.445-04:002016-09-02T17:21:21.445-04:00"Rabel, I think your Tigers..."
Be care..."Rabel, I think your Tigers..."<br /><br />Be careful, buddy. You have made an assumption which has led to a scurrilous and unfounded allegation in a public forum. I'd hate to have to go all Melania on ya. For the record, I do not smell like corndogs.*<br /><br />As for your prediction, yeah. Unless LSU's QB completely stinks it up that big truck with a number 7 on his back should wear them down and they'll pull away in the second half.<br /><br />*SEC insider joke. LSU fans are said to smell like corndogs. The reasons for this are lost in the mists of history. They smelly, corndoggy mists (like LSU fans), but it seems to annoy them so it's all good.Rabelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02612585516401001803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-81003325954088392702016-09-02T16:29:58.328-04:002016-09-02T16:29:58.328-04:00He is suffering from ink poisoning.He is suffering from ink poisoning.The Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05354536924604187137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-6076877777690229392016-09-02T16:00:31.818-04:002016-09-02T16:00:31.818-04:00While we all love giving shit to Kaepernick and fo...While we all love giving shit to Kaepernick and for good reason, I do not want to elevate his importance. <br /><br />He is an over paid QB headcase. The only difference between him and Johnny Manziel, is Manziel self destructed before he managed to score a big contract. This protest (while it may be sincere in his own addled head) is about Kaepernick's insecurities. It makes no sense, other than from his own immature desire to be the center of attention. <br /><br />If he were a real man, he would dig deep, work out the reason he is not playing well and try to get out of the hole he is in. Even if he didn't do it, at least he would be acting like a man. Posturing about not standing (regardless of his politics) is just a distraction from the business he is hired to be there for. Evi L.

There is a reason why the national anthem is played at each game across multiple sports, even down to the kids sports level and if the NFL sets a precedent by not using it anymore it will be the the beginning of the end of them.<br /><br />I recognize that Kaperdick is entitled to his little meaningless retarded opinions, but he's wrong and he's wrong for the dumbest of reasons, but it is his right. However, his actions have consequences and he should be made to suffer for them. I hope his activist girlfriend will hang with him after the millions are gone. This fool can't see the forest through the trees. If he's cut from the 9'ers and even if he 'retires' then what will he do after that? Get hired by ESPN? He hasn't even thought that far.Methadrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07828014989470539375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-25584820022366968892016-09-02T15:01:42.711-04:002016-09-02T15:01:42.711-04:00Anyone here ever watch a futbol game?
