Do you live in my neck of the woods?

Just another athlete. Like celebrities--why do we care what their political opinions are?
No self respecting griller or cooker would ever use his grill.

It's an abomination.

Say what you will, but he's made millions.

She also has nothing to do with this discussion.

True. And this exemplifies deflection. Bringing Hilary into this was a way to deflect from what I was trying to convey. It is also a form of gaslighting. Make the other party look stupid when any ability to dissect and refute an argument is nonexistent.

I don't go "nutty" if someone doesn't stand for the national anthem. I have no respect for those who don't however. Their motive may be right, but their way of expressing it is wrong.

George Foreman grew up in a time that these rich spoiled athletes who feel so put upon could never imagine.

He experienced the racism these punks whine about experiencing because they merely see the American flag.

Good on Big George for calling them out.
