Shannon Sharpe's college thesis on American History...

The co-host of FN1’s Undisputed, former NFL player Shannon Sharpe, went on a hateful rant on Friday in regards to the anti-American NFL National Anthem protests, angrily arguing that the American flag is no big deal anyway, that it’s just a “piece of cloth” that “nobody fights for” and that it’s a symbol that’s somehow “racist” to boot.
“The flag, you see, to a lot of people, symbols, patriotism but what does that symbol actually mean?” Sharpe asked stunned co-host Skip Bayless. “What does — what does – okay — you keep telling me that the flag means so much and it’s opportunity and freedom and liberty. Okay. Can you honestly say that everybody in America has freedom and liberties and opportunity?”
“No,” Bayless calmly answered.
“Well, if you can’t can’t answer that, then we have a problem and we would like to have it addressed,” Sharpe shouted.
Shannon Sharpe, a former NFL tight end who spent all but two of his 12 seasons with the Denver Broncos, continued his hateful rant against the flag:
“And stop trying to sweep it under the rug. But, see, as long as you paint that narrative, oh, it’s the Anthem, I can’t — no — anybody that does something to the Anthem — well, we know what the anthem was originally written for and who it was written by, okay? The flag, okay? We understand what the flag? What does it represent?
When did this narrative come to be that the military and the police own the flag and only them? I can go buy a flag and I can hang it up in my backyard. We need to stop this, Skip. We need to — the flag is a piece of cloth and nobody fights for a piece...”

Simas Kudirka was a Lithuanian sailor who in 1970 jumped from a Soviet ship onto a US Coast Guard cutter seeking asylum in the US, but the cutter’s idiot skipper returned him to the Soviets, who put him in the Gulag. However, it turned out he had US citizenship, so a few years later, he was released and came to the US.
I once heard him give a speech in which he made an offer to anti-American protesters that he would purchase a one-way ticket to the Communist country of their choice if they would agree to “live there, be happy, and don’t come back.” Shannon Sharpe ought to take him up on that offer.
The problem is black people like him, and the whites who pay him.
Have we finally found someone as stupid as Maxine Waters?
Shannon Sharpe is another multimillionaire NFL brat who never served in the military - the ungrateful moron has no clue.

Keeping the “N” word relevant...
Sharpe was always mouthy on the field too.
I knew he was a worm years ago when he called for NFL punishments to be meted out by a panel of some sort that had plenty of “African-americans” on it, as if a white man wasn’t capable of dealing with the issue.
By African americans I think he meant negroes, by the way.
Shannon Sharpe is a racist piece of crap, who is not worth fighting for.
(Didn't they teach spelling and grammar in "college"?)
We need more interviews like this, makes for some interesting political commercials in the future....I love it when ignorant sport personalities talk....
Another reason not to support the NFL in any way.
FIRE THIS SOB

The truth behind the keepers. They fake patriotism while desecrating patriotic icons. The hate portrayed by BLM is showing through. I pray that it’s not a majority view of black Americans.
Another nail the BLM/NFL coffin. Keep it up morons.
