Beto is a Spanish nickname for his first name Robert.

I thought it was more like "Bob"; short for Robert or in Spanish - Roberto.

Beto is a Spanish nickname for Roberto. Got this from a Spanish buddy.

Robert Francis O'Rourke sounds real Spanish, doesn't it?

Thanks for that item on the scumbag, Jane. I’ve sent it to others I know who will also pass it around.

Stop spreading the lie that the Cowboys kneeled during the anthem last year!! They did that before the anthem as a show of team unity and all stood for the anthem.

This makes me want to bang my head against a wall. There is NO freedom of speech on the job. If I got a job waiting tables at a steakhouse, showed up for work wearing a “Meat is Murder” t-shirt, and lectured customers when they ordered a steak, I would be fired! You simply cannot say whatever the heck you want at work. You participate in causes on your own time.

That idiot Goodell could have nipped this in the bud by stating this obvious point. Well, except for the fact that America is now afraid of blacks and what they will do when they get angry. Blackmail by threatening riots.

Very well said.

That idiot Goodell could have nipped this in the bud by stating this obvious point.

Yep...He could have and he darn well should have. His lack of cajones has and will cost not only the NFL in many different ways but the institution of football nationwide.
