Delanie Walker told the Tennessean:
“First off, I’m going to say this: We’re not disrespecting the military, the men and women that serve in the Army. That’s not what it’s all about,” Titans tight end Delanie Walker said. “If you look at most of the guys in here – I’ve been in the USO. I support the troops. This is not about that. It’s about equal rights, and that’s all everyone is trying to show, is that we all care about each other.
“And the fans that don’t want to come to the game? I mean, OK. Bye. I mean, if you feel that’s something, we’re disrespecting you, don’t come to the game. You don’t have to. No one’s telling you to come to the game. It’s your freedom of choice to do that.”
Other teams are panicking and releasing statements to the public reassuring fans that they will be standing for the anthem moving forward, however; the Titans are doubling down. Other players smugly expressed they didn’t care if fans were angered by their kneeling and that they plan on kneeling on Sunday.
According to Fox News, Walker is in the middle of a 2-year $13.3 million contract with the Nashville-based team. He claims the protests are not an attack on Veterans or the military.
Equal rights? Then why don’t you equally distribute your multi-million dollar contract to the poor people in the U.S.
Hey, Delanie Walker:
GFYourself.
YOU Need us. WE don’t need YOU.
You want to take a knee? Go take a hike.
Sincerely, a Former fan.
Not One Dime More.
I wonder how ownership thinks about his statement....?
Betcha his next contract if offered might be a little slimmer...
That soon to be poor SOB. My heart goes out to him. People with mid 60’s IQs and talent should not be allowed to speak for themselves. That dumb SOB is clueless as to what is happening to him. Manipulated, directed, programmed...
Well young man can I teach you a new phrase: “Would you like fries WIT DAT”
At least he will still have his 60 inch TV on which he can watch “oww my balls” while sipping a Brondo.
Well a poll on Nashville’s Channel 2 shows that almost 75% do NOT support the Titans on this.
“...”I’m okay with fans not coming to our games...”
Good. Get used to it, sonny.
What a chump.
Sorry but I won’t be staying home - nor will I be watching the NFL. I’ll be watching a better sport - Superboat racing!!
There is no doubt in my mind that this is a direct result of the NFL kneeing.
NOBODY wants to see your stupid pet protests during a football game. THAT’S the point.
We don’t need you and we don’t want you. Maybe McDonalds can use you — if it is not too racist for you.
NFL responds to “clarify” Walker’s statement in 3...2...1...
Good, I wish they all felt this way, this thing would end sooner and the TV networks can start figuring out how do do play-by-play of soccer matches.
Protest on your on time. Not company time and certainly not during
the Anthem.
Oh poor ole oppressed millionaires. If they don’t like the league rules they should just quit their oh so lucrative jobs.
F them all I hope they rot.
It has electrolytes.
To them, Dennis Rodman represents America. I’d jump off a cliff, too.
lol
