Colin Kaepernick refuses “to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people”...

[Stew]

No wonder why the league and owners keep fucking these niggas during collective bargaining negotiations. These mfs don't have no backbone. Out here damn near committing suicide on the football field and can't even get a guaranteed contract.

Yeaaaa lets compare a league with 1700 players with a huge injury risk to a league with 300 and talk about guaranteed contracts :joy:

Dignity and pride greater than fucking money.........nuggas love money cuh, glad i aint one of them nuggas

 

[blackgod813]

Not everybody is a civil rights activist they get payed to run a ball who made them qualified to speak on anything past that..

Nigga then say "no comment" & keep it moving. Why is Dez Bryant speaking on something he has no interest in? Niggaz be cosigning coonery

@blackgod813 is a fuckin coon troll, don't pay him any mind

U like a lii kid coon troll ass hole dumy head...listen pick which one i am. footballers give they life to that sport by the age of five thats there focus nobodies asking pianist about soccer..yea he should of said no comment idk why people ask jocks anything

 

[blackrain]

Further proof of why I say its stupid to expect somebody to speak up or demand they speak up just because their job puts them in the public eye. Most people not built for that shit...the only real sad part about this is he didn't say he's not speaking up because he isn't knowlegable...but because he has to "feed his family" which is an unconscious way of saying he knows saying something would rock the boat and cause him to lose out on income

 

[Olorun22]

So y'all going to act like most of y'all aren't in the same position as being employed... How many of y'all are going to speak up at your employer? None....

You was just in the NFL thread talking down on James Harrison because of the shit he didn't say

But now it's different?

If sex would have said I'm going to beat someone ass for kneeling then I would have said the same.. Apple and oranges my friend

 

[playmaker88]

My thing is this why not shut the fuck up and keep that to yourself..

These cats have no problem being loud about carrying the water.. for their owners though..

 

[dnyce215]

AZ is right, it is hard to keep niggas together, smh

 

[D. Morgan]

That nigga Dez been a clown so this shit ain't surprising.

A lot of emotion in these posts. You don't fuck up the golden goose to be a broke activist. Standing for the anthem ain't no coon shit. In a few years Colin K will be a 30 for 30. It's honorable what he did, but at the end of the day, he sacrificed his platform to make a point, and now he can no longer even use that platform in silence because it's not there.

You can't wave a red flag in front of a bull and not expect it to charge. Everybody wanna cry that blackball shit like the owners don't still hold the cards. If i'm dez and I see what Kap is goin through, i'ma lay in the cut too, hell yea.

Like somebody said before. A lot of niggas been quietly on some trill shit they whole careers.

 

[playmaker88]

again you can lay in the cut.. be silent dont say shit.. and not vocally tow the company line.. if you are that type of cat....

when someone holds all the cards you seem to be saying lay down dont make waves.. im glad not everyone takes that view.. otherwise we be in chains

Make no mistake were still in chains..just not physical one. But I agree with most of what you said

Black people hold our cards it's not like we can't make our own league. I wish we stop the thinking that we can't do for yourself.

We already in chains, and we not going to get out of em by marchin and sitting for anthems. Every little bit helps dont get me wrong, but the money of a baller is better than the blackball of a martyr b.

 

[Olorun22]

What's stopping black people from creating our own Destiny?

 

[Lefty_]

The league will die, you know why? Because all the way up the infrastructure we don't control much. It's a little more nuanced than just taking the black players and saying we'll play by ourselves.

some of those chains are mental psychological, generational and self inflicted... as well as the obvious..

Since when is Kaep broke?

If he is or ain't shouldn't be none of your concern!

How you figure he don't have a platform? If Kaep wanted to he could go a fucking TV tour right now and get paid for doing every fucking interview.

Some of yall niggas short sighted as a muthfucka

 

[Lefty_]

Don't get mad, get real. And he could do more with an NFL salary, and the title of NFL quarterback playing into his late 30s then he can without the two. That interview tour ain't even going to amount to what he would get paid if he only played in division games.
