Would you care to point out the part of Brees' statement that is racist? Kindly copy/paste the part of his statement that fits the definition of racism please.

I guess from now on everyone will be expected to take a knee when the National Anthem is played or be ejected from the stadium!

We should not acquiesce to the Lefts notion of hate of country.

I would have liked to have seen him retire and leave them high and dry with Winston.


But this is America and we all have choices ... or do we??

SCREW THAT!

You don't capitulate to the MOB!

Nope -- no one every advocated that everyone HAD to take a knee.

That's not what the issue is. Nobody ever said everyone had to take a knee....

Inevitable. Clowns will start kneeling in the stadium and will attempt to bully others to do it. Soon, not kneeling will be racist.

No, just that everyone has to support those that want to take a knee, right?

So sad that he had to apologize. The oppression we are living under with leftist evil and social media is beyond words.

I hope he can live in peace and finish his Hall of Fame NFL career in peace.
