Mike Ditka don’t care, he tells Anthem-hating Athletes to GET OUT
Trending Views ^ | 7-26-2020 | Frank Bojazi

Former NFL coach Mike Ditka had a lot to say about the NFL players who plan to take a knee during the national anthem. He simply doesn’t care for it and he suggests anyone who’s taking a knee for the national anthem may as well get out of the country.

But don’t listen to me. Take it from the man himself as quoted by TMZ: “If you can’t respect our national anthem, get the hell out of the country. That’s the way I feel. Of course, I’m old fashioned, so I’m only going to say what I feel. You don’t protest against the flag and you don’t protest against this country who’s given you the opportunities to make a living playing a sport that you never thought would happen… so, I don’t want to hear all the crap.”

I regret that he didn’t take on Obama in the Senate race in 2004. The door was open for him after Jack Ryan was chased out.

Todd, Pat, Carl: Ditka, Ditka!!

Bob: Hold on, Hold on, Hold on. The name of the Hurricane is "Hurricane Ditka."

Leaving is a really good idea. We sure don’t need them.

Most of the fools in Austin last night were white. They are backing the wrong horse. Fools. They deserve all the bad they get.

In the interviews I see they are just mental midgets. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Imagine if he were elected Senator in 2004 instead of Barack Obama?

The smear job against Jack Ryan was one for the books. Too bad he didn’t try to fight back. Many years later, his ex-wife Jeri Ryan admitted she lied about the entire “Sex Scandal”

These problems for blacks don’t exist in Africa.

They should all move there.
