[LuvSouthOC]

Support the NFL and disregard this nonsense...

Najee Ali, local leader of the National Action Network, a group founded by the Rev. Al Sharpton, announced in a statement, "Protests are also planned outside the L.A. Rams owned by Stan Kroenke and L.A. Chargers owned by Alex Spanos preseason games."

"My attitude is Colin Kaepernick may not be Tom Brady, but you can't tell me he shouldn't be in training camp."

Ali says during a phone interview. "He's being blackballed for standing up for black and brown folks."

That was good, I need to admit it.

Kaepernick is not a good NFL QB and certainly not worth the baggage he comes with so nobody is signing him. Just like nobody wanted to sign Ray Rice after he knocked out his wife on camera. Kaepernick wouldn't get hired in any line of work now and he made $40 million before he was cut so nobody has to lose any sleep over him being unemployed

I don't understand how people can keep watching this garbage (makes sense if you play football) when it is shown how the franchises don't give a rats about the fans and their hometown. They just pick up and go wherever there's more money. I am sure a lot of people have stopped watching football after the Chargers, Rams, abandoned San Diego and St. Louis.

Actually, I was able to catch the Rams practicing for FREE at UCI. One day both teams were there! THAT was awesome. Highlights from Chargers’ joint practice with Rams at UC Irvine – Orange County Register

I remember reading about Najee Ali , he is an ex con that is buddies with Garcetti.

He's been branded a sellout for his cozy relationship with LAPD Chief Charlie Beck, and called a mouthpiece for Mayor Eric Garcetti, whom Ali regularly praises in his column.
"I realized sometimes it is better to be inside City Hall, advocating for South L.A. as opposed to protesting outside the mayor's house," he said, a dig at Black Lives Matters protesters, who camped out at Garcetti's Windsor Square home last summer.

Why do we want a guy that's been convicted of bribery and other crimes "inside City Hall"..

He was behind that big Prince benefit that was hosted by the city too.
The city let this ex con organize the event.

This Ali guy is another scumbag that profits off of SJW nonsense.

Yes, I'm guessing Al is running low on funds and is looking to raise some cash.

Nonsense? He should be employed. It's obvious why he isn't.
