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

[So ILL]

Fuck that. Drew Brees on some bullshit. He never wanted to do any type of protest from jump. See, this is the fraudulent shit we talkin about.

Guys like him are better off not doing anything then half-ass shit like this. For him, this has NOTHING to do with police brutality; he's one of those guys that's just riding the wave of good PR.

Brees dumbass thought it was about the troops at first.

A lot of white people are acting like its about the military and flag. Or at least that's what they're deflecting with to cover up their racism.

Yea i saw that shit.. wtf.. and that coon standingin front... smh

So I heard David Carr got hurt today, I’m not sure how serious it is... and I know it’s late in the game hoping Kaepernick gets a job anywhere...

But not having a decent backup QB killed the Raiders last year and Kaep is beloved in the Bay Area, if he is was gonna get a chance anywhere Oakland would be perfect.

Report: NFL Floated Plan For All Players to Wear “Team America” Patches

But the funniest fact in the story comes about one response the NFL had floated:

There was a general, if fanciful, consensus that even a short-term financial hit could benefit the league in the long term, especially if the league and the union could join in solidarity behind a single plan. That’s how the league’s marketing department was planning to proceed, even if some of the rough ideas fell flat. One idea had all players wearing a patch on their jerseys that would read, “Team America.” An owner briefed on the proposal simply shook his head: “We need to do better than that.”

Team America! For those of us who love humorous fuck-ups, it is incredibly disappointing the NFL did not go that route.

I hate how they equate money with social equality. You can make all of the money in the world and you're still just a nigger in certain people's eyes.

I'll say it again. Stand or don't it doesn't matter. They already won because the actual problem being protested isn't even being talked about anymore. At this point it's become a Freedom of Speech struggle and thatshouldn't be anyone's priority.

What's even more tragic is they expect athletes with wealth to not only distance themselves from you know the other kinds blacks "niggers" but their own families. These men\women have cousins, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles etc who do not enjoy the lifestyles they do. These men\women have to return their neighborhoods and look their family in the eyes. white america is the worse. They're always preaching ancestors and tradition but totally neglect and disrespect that blacks as well as other races have their own culture, tradition, history and ancestors to honor.

I'll agree to disagree. While it appears some of these brothers\sisters are bitching up. I think it's a little more complicated these days. Some of the these brothers are relied upon heavily so, messing up their earning affects more than just them.
