Kelly Stafford, the wife of Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, is now apologizing for her 2016 criticism of Colin Kaepernick’s protests against the country during the national anthem.

The NFL wife took to her Instagram account in abject apology for her initial patriotic reaction to Kaepernick’s anthem protests. She is now vowing to go all in to fight “systemic racism” and “social injustice.”

In her Sunday morning post, Stafford says her note is something the couple has “been thinking and talking about for several months.” Then she apologized for “not listening” to those who have claimed that the protests against the country were never about the flag or the military. The post also tells fans that she and her husband pledged a $350,000 donation to “endow a social justice program for UGA Athletics.”

The dumbassery is large with this one. IF she REALLY cared, she and matt would lower their living standards to "surviving" on $100K/yr and give the rest to, oh, say, shawn 'talcum X' king to do good with? Hey mr and mrs stafford, phu cough!

Kaepernick is an anti-American. His claim was that the anthem and the flag REPRESENT OPPRESSION. He has NEVER apologized or even walked that back. ANY on and I mean anyone at all that agrees with that Anti-American is either doing so in total ignorance or in total fear of the mob.

There are seven billion voices out there. I can’t listen to all of them. Which begs the question, why should I listen to him vs others of those seven billion? Give me a valid reason.

Will Keapernici be celebrated as the one responsible for destroying the sport of football in America?

Looks like the title of this title was too obvious to require a barf alert.

I wish they would all just STFU already

Was looking forward to this season too after they pretty much kept their mouths shut last year

Might have even gone to a few games

Now they can go..themselves

They have gotten so good at it

UFC is what all the 20 something’s and under are really into.

The nfl’s audience will die.. not now or even 5 years from now. But sooner than they think

Another Black Lives Matter dhimmi speaks. If America is such a rotten place with so much “systemic racism”, why isn't Kaepernick dangling from a tree limb for being so uppity. The stupid is strong with this one.
