Sports & Politics This section is for all political sports talk. Regrettably we feel that in some instances there is no way to eliminate politics from football, basketball, and baseball hobbytalk. Do you pretend nothing is happening with the Warriors, Steelers, A's, etc? This section is for all political sports discussion. However, it is for civil discussion only. No insults aimed at members, political parties, or politicians will be tolerated. There is no warning. If you cannot be civil, you will lose your posting privileges on this site. |

Wow, about as bigoted as you can get.
As a white male, I will now root for his failure.

What an idiot. Let's hope he's fined by the NFL and Goodell doesn't turn his cowardly back on this one.

No there are other ways to go about it. So let me come #@#@#@#@ on something you stand for and put your life on the line for because I dont like it. Tell me how you feel then. Your also telling me there are not a lot better ways for him to do something about it. Lets say attend a rally or address the issue in a news conference after the game? But he just completely #@#@#@#@ on your freedom for something he obviously does not care that much about because all he has done is sit on his ass about it.

The older I have become.. I really try to put myself in others shoes...
But it is hard not to think about the millions who died to build and protect this country So he could make millions of dollars to play a game.. I wonder if he did not live in the united states and did not play football how his live would be this is a tough one for me |

Preaching to the choir, I served my time in the US Navy so I can back that up. Don't speak to me like I don't know what it means to serve our country, been there.
He's a big boy, he doesn't need your approval to do anything.....but let's just start firing people for there beliefs, that makes sense. Quote:

Good for you. If you believe he should have that right great. To me it seems like he went about this completely the wrong way and should be punished for it.

Heh, good move.
Kaepernick has every right to do what he did last night, there isn't anyone that should say boo. However, what he did was extremely stupid for so many reasons. Where was this during his SuperBowl, during his bowl games at Nevada, during NFC Championship games? Could it possibly be that he stood for those anthems because he was relevant, because the spotlight was already on him and he loved this country for giving him the opportunity to be a rich, famous QB for the SF 49ers? Well up until yesterday, that spotlight vanished. Fighting to beat Blaine Gabbert, he decided during a un-televised, pre-season game to make a statement. But I come away from this reading it as a statement about him, and not about anything he (might have been) hoped to accomplish. If his career stays in the tank, he'll be remembered as the guy that didn't stand for the National Anthem that one time, nothing more.

That flag represents the freedom that allows him to have an opinion, whether its popular or not.
That should be more than enough reason to get off your ass, and salute. I understand where hes coming from, but this is not how you voice your displeasure, and he done &^%$# up with this one, big time. |
