Re: Why I grew to love the Donald and forgive his haters
It's funny how we have to create hypothetical scenarios to paint the players as disrespectful because it's so obviously stupid to be offended by players silently taking a knee during the national anthem. Let me know when the right wing paranoia about flag burning is actually legitimate.

Re: Why I grew to love the Donald and forgive his haters
Bullshit. Most of them grow up in total poverty and work their asses off to go to college where they still have no money to live well and have to work to get to the NFL or be back in the shitty neighborhoods. Their mothers are often the ones working all those jobs just so they can play.Tiggnutz wrote:GTFO most have been pulled aside and treated better than everyone else since they were young teens Givin a different easier set of standards in all aspects of life because they were born faster and stronger than everyone else.

Re: Why I grew to love the Donald and forgive his haters
Nobody goes to a football game excited to stand for the anthem anyway. 10% do so with pride, the other 90% do so out of mass peer pressure. It's a physical inconvenience settling into a game after getting food and beer to have to stand for a minute if we're being honest. And the NFL charges the armed services millions of dollars for the spectacle of it all. Pointless expense by our money pit of a military.

Players drawing attention to social causes with a harmless gestures > thousands of fans going through the motions of lazily standing up while not doing anything for their own communities outside the stadium.

No, you just know you have no leg to stand on. NFL players come from the lowest income brackets and some of the worst neighborhoods in the country.

"pulled aside and treated better than everyone else since they were young teens"
Being the best treated kid in the Seventh Ward is worth jack shit. You could die any day just from being in the wrong place. They're not growing up in the suburbs.

Oh how horrible of schools and communities to give their best potential income earners the best opportunities to escape circumstances that leave a lot of their classmates dead.

But they're "spoiled" because they used their ability and work ethic to give themselves the best chance to succeed and earned opportunities from it. They're not born great at football, they work for it. "America" does not put them in the gym at 5:00 in the morning every day.
