Brainwashed...Hmmm is our President brainwashed? He is the one calling out the NFL...

Sorry I insulted Brady as you are clearly some kind of big Brady fan.

I know the names of some of the “a**holes” who took knees...Beckham...OK??? I really don’t care about them because they are not elevated to hero worship by some like Brady is by you.

Oh and frankly, I rather people take a stand...Take the knee if you are an unpatriotic hypocrite. Stand and put hand on your heart if you are a pro-flag patriotic American, but don’t do both and send out tweets that say nothing about patriotism and everything about brotherhood.

Oh, and You have been here long enough to know you are not supposed to use profanity...

Maybe you need a couple beers to go with watching the NFL replays.

Now stop with the name calling and go back to your games...

Done.

A little theory I just came up with; The White players are in a predicament. They either kneel with the brothers, or respect America. If they don't show solidarity with the brothers, they become pariah on the team and piss off the bros. If they kneel with the brothers, they are hypocritical, ass-kissing, white uncle toms and alienate their fan base.

Brady wants it both ways.

That might be the worst of all.

p.s. F the Cheatriots.

It would have been more effective if the people had stayed home. Once they had your money, no one cares what you say.

Brady has to go home to the supermodel.

If he doesn’t say the right thing, you know what he’s going to have to deal with....

Hot tongue and cold shoulder.

but he also showed solidarity with his kneeling neighboring teammate

It doesn't look like the guy who his arm is intertwined with is kneeling. Looks to me like he's also standing. Of course I guess he could be super tall and when kneeling he is almost the same height of Brady....I don't know I didn't see it in person.

Your’e correct...that is a different team picture...

However, I still really wish that he had just stood at attention like he did before and not go with the Solidarity thing—and skip the tweets. Given his stature, I think he personally could have turned around this whole knee thing had he done what Alejandro Villanueva did.

Villanueva has his priorities straight—Country and honoring those who gave the ultimate sacrifice before a weekend game.\

I also did not appreciate fact that this was done on Gold Star Moms/Families Day.

“telling these players who kneel and don’t show for the National Anthem that they are COWARDS and should be FIRED - but he blew it.”

So now Brady should tell them they are fired????? Your mind is cooked...get help fast!!

I’m saying Brady could have CHOSEN to be a leader on this and defend his country, flag, veterans, and those wounded and killed in the line of duty WHO GAVE HIM THE FREEDOM AND RIGHT to play the GAME of football and make millions in a free country. Instead he declined.

ALMOST NONE OF THESE NFL MULTIMILLIONAIRE KNEELERS AND NO SHOW SNIVELING BRATS EVER SERVED IN THE MILITARY. THEY DISRESPECT AMERICA AND ALL WHO SERVED. FREEDOM IS NOT FREE. I SPIT ON THEM ALL.

TB wants to win another SB or two.

But by not endorsing the knees he IMO said plenty.

Better than what Kraft did.

FWIW Alex Jones theorizes that the NFL is so afraid of its liability and the collapse of their franchise values that they’ve gone full PC to stave off being held to account.

It is open to debate why Brady really did that. I doubt if he meant to be disrespectful to the flag. He was probably expressing solidarity of some sort. Nevertheless, it is not appropriate to do that during the national anthem. This is not the biggest deal in the world. But Brady messed up this time.

These people have been forced to take a side, I see it as Brady standing united with those who are protesting the protesters...

“Where is the list of all the players who kneeled? I especially want to know who kneeled in England.”

That we know all about what Brady has to say on the subject, and would need to do some hard digging to not only find those names, but also what THEIR thoughts are on the booing, just demonstrates the games the msm are playing.

“Sorry I insulted Brady as you are clearly some kind of big Brady fan.”

Since last year’s superbowl...YUP. Amazing.

I don’t think it’s rational to skip over criticizing the %%^%$$$$$$$%$$ who kneeled and go nitpick Brady for whatever.

At best what he said is an asterisk at the bottom of the page.
