Personally, I think black people are angry and acting out because a black man no longer resides in the White House. Like small children.


And I think white liberals are angry and acting out because a woman doesn't reside in the White House.


It could have been any white, male republican - both demographics would be behaving in the same manner.
Well that "black" man did nothing for the black community while he was in office. So I'm mad about that.

Every team in the league stood tall, owners and players alike, and Trump got his racist ass handed to him today.

It's time that America was put first, not last by such an irreligious group of people who deserve to have behind their names all has $0.00's.

They're way too spoiled with way too much money and nothing else to do but run around and make themselves richer insulting true heroes.

Because a thug is a thug because to be a thug is a thug for a cause.

They hate America and what it stands for that's why no applause.

They're ungrateful for living in America yet are held inside of awe.

They deserve nothing, that just as they came into the world, let be.
Not sure what you just said, but okay. I still don't know why they're thugs. I thought thugs were people who beat up other people.

Most people who still watch football are those Trump supporters. Do you think those liberal computer nerds care if football is on its way out? They have a game for that if they need it. lol
I don't support Trump and I still watched today.

Whatever happened to "I may not agree with what you say, but I'll die for your right to say it?"

How do conservatives figure they're showing their love for this country by censoring everybody that might happen to disagree with them?

So you think YOUR "president" is going to curry favor outside of you Cult 45 members by giving a childish and divisive speech, plus a bunch of empty minded tweets (the name says it all) about a couple of NFL players who kneeled in memory of an innocent young black man who was killed by the police?

Meanwhile, the Republicans are trying to push through yet another health care plan that they're keeping us confused about, the AMERICAN citizens of Puerto Rico are coping with the catastrophic aftermath of Hurricane Maria, and N. Korea is ratcheting up it threats of war. But let's focus the national discussion on what REALLY matters. A few young black athletes exercising their right to free speech.

I guess conservatives are taking George Orwell's words to heart and running with them.

"All men are created equal, but some of us are more equal than others."


Doesn't seem very American to me. Maybe YOU should leave the country.

Every American has the right to their own beliefs but to disrespect the very source that gives them that right is just plain downright stupid.

My group stopped attending NFL and/or watching NFL games after Kaepernick took a knee and nothing was done about it. Most of us are vets and to see a bunch of morons who never served their country disrespect America is pathetic. With the latest bull**** we are turning to the sponsors and informing them that we are no longer going to buy their products. (No need to watch the games. It is easy to get a list of those sponsors on the web). We encourage all Americans to do the same.
Maybe if that is the feeling, one should have disregarded Trump as a first priority, unless one is functioning from Selective Amnesia with much Bias that is covertly trying not to be displayed. yet, it is overtly evident. Because Trump has denigrated every organization of this United States Government, as well as many others on a continual cycle, and neglected to fill out Governmental Appointed Position while he tries to play "Dictator" by use of Executive Orders, along with his incessant praise of Putin while dissing our Sitting President while he was pursuing the job, and bad mouthing the FBI director to the Russians while trying to convey to them that he could obstructive justice by doing so.

The NFL has tried its best to affiliate their corporate racket with Patriotism when in reality real patriotism and the NFL are totally mutually exclusive.

Unfortunately most Americans have not been living in reality for decades, they have been living an illusion built of lies.
