How about “Steeler’s team chose not to stand with Villanueva”

Tomlin wanted 100% participation in the disrespectful locker room “sit out”. Why didn’t Tomlin lead and demand 100% participation in sideline standing and respect for the flag? Oh, that’s right, he’s black.

Not to be unkind, but because he DOES BELIEVE IN FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION for those that he chooses, his ‘girlfriend’ resembles Lily Munster of tee vee fame. Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Mike.

If Tomlin wants to get rid of that cracka, I’m sure the Cowboys would take him.

I am so proud of him! I’m not sure what kind of a player he is, but he is one fine American.

“Keep in mind that football players are traded all the time,....” Maybe he would be more welcome with, say, the Cowboys/

"If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag & Country, you will see change take place fast," Trump tweeted at 6:44 a.m. ET on Sunday. "Fire or suspend!"

He followed that up 29 minutes later with another thought on the topic: "...NFL attendance and ratings are WAY DOWN. Boring games yes, but many stay away because they love our country. League should back U.S."

They are going to be in for a big surprise when whites actually get fed up with this crap.

Only a year ago it was controversial that Kaepernick refused to stand for the anthem.

Today, it’s controversial that Villanueva didn’t.

Stupidity normalizes fast.

Please explain to the class what Thomas Jefferson had in mind when he asserted that the protection of the Republic covered "infidels of every denomination" - and how Colin Kaepernick, NFL "Family" "man", and his America-hating Islamic playmates, plan on continuing that tradition (which is represented, among other things, by standing during the National Anthem)?
 
We'll, STAND, and wait.


"Family"

So you are fine with them kneeling but not fine with them standing in respect? Got it.

He wanted all his players the same, and the hard-core protestors wouldn’t yield. All this “unity” is a marketing campaign.

I wonder what the “pansy” Rush Limbaugh is going to say about “his” team?

Is “Mr. Conservative”, going to denounce his favorite football team? Never mind praising the ONE team member, what about the entire rest of the team, conspicuous by their absence. What about THEM, Rush?

Where do you stand, Rush?

(he will NOT disown “his” team)

Hmm, maybe if Tomlin and the rest of the Steelers had been more worried about their game plan than with holding up a big middle finger to Trump and their fan base they would be 3-0 instead of 2-1 after an embarrassing loss.
