Tiger Woods agrees with Nike and it’s America hatred if he endorses them
There is just no other way around it
A room full of white men, probably some Canadians, Americans, maybe some Europeans. Respect for both national anthems is MANDATORY. No excuses, no exceptions. If you don't like it GTFO.
Worth watching over and over.
Damn.... I felt that through my phone display.
Bravo and Amen!
Trump should invite that guy to the White House — rather than fruitlessly try to earn points with women by praising soccer teams that disrespect the flag and politicize the game.
I would leave out the patriotic comment and say if you are patriotic or not no one on team time disrespects the anthem without bringing the whole team, the fans and the owners with them
And that is one thing I truly admire about George..he has NEVER played the race card.. ever.
When this take a knee thing started, I switched to the NHL. Never looked back, bought season tickets, have had a blast.
Communists have a problem with the church also. It’s the idea that it’s God’s will when their lives are the pits and others are doing so well. No religion. Tell that to the Moozlems.
Yes so pro America they moved a tournament from trumps club to Mexico.
I think that Tiger has been generally apolitical, though he is certainly friendly to the current President (and Trump respects that Tiger has been a winner, despite some of his personal foibles.)
Additionally, his father served proudly in the US Army, and I don't see Tiger stomping on any flags...ever.
Perhaps Tiger will use his position to be the anti-Kaepernik, Nike be damned.
Here’s a man that means what he says:
This guy, and his son, are gutty and great for their decisions to place country over petty politics. These guys don’t need a MAGA hat. They live it without having to show it off. These are your heroes, not women’s political teams.

The vast majority of American PGA tour players are very patriotic. If they aren’t, they keep it to themselves. The PGA tour raises a great deal of money for veterans. Many tournaments give free tickets to active duty and retired military, some even to all veterans.
If love to know what team he coaches. It would be funny he was a Hockey East (the SEC of college hockey) coach...
OK, so why have they not come back??
Good. 100% in agreement.
“I think that Tiger has been generally apolitical....”
In a walk by comment made by Fuzzy Zoeller at the 1997 Masters, he made a comment about the probable years winner, Woods, concerning his selection at the players dinner next year being fried chicken.
I was watching Wood’s reaction and he laughed it off as Zoeller was a known jokester. It was reported that Woods later received a call from Jesse Jackson and the next day, attacked Zoeller in the media to the point of almost totally destroying him publicly and professionally costing him millions of dollars in revenue and forcing him to apologize to numerous people about a bad joke. In 2013 he publicly went after Sergio Garcia for the same thing. He should have learned by that time that it was a joke with no malice. He also allowed himself to be the poster boy for mixed race marriages with his parents and his until he was caught with over 25 infidelities. Apolitical? Not on your life.

Tour officials did that, not the players. And then what happens, Kucher gives his Mexican caddie the payment of a lifetime and they complain.
Good on the hockey coach.
Too bad he’ll be forced out in 3, 2,...
Torts is a real pistol.
