he believes that players are kneeling to protest police brutality, not because they disrespect the flag. He added that players need to make that clear.”
Fine.
If that’s really true, they could stand for the anthem, then take a short knee at the end of it.
But I don’t believe them.
They are kneeling to disrespect the flag and the anthem.
“Black people have bigger problems before police brutality. If blacks were so afraid of police killing them you’d think they’d be a little better behaved.”
Two very true statements.
NoFL.
“”””Why take knee. They can ware anti police tshirt”””””
I believe Colin Krapperdick wore socks depicting police as pigs.
BS. They believe America is a racist country and by failing to stand for the flag & anthem they show their contempt for both. If they were not protesting the flag and the USA there would be no point in kneeling during the anthem. Dr. Carson must not be as bright as people think he is.
At this point I don’t care what they do.
It’s over.
Always liked Ben Carson...
I doubt there will be any NFL this year, the massive deadly 2nd wave is coming, they need to take a pause for a few years.
Interesting that such a brilliant surgeon could be so clueless about what all this kneeling garbage is all about.
There should be NO touching in sports for a while, maybe a few years.
Unfortunately, I think Dr. Carson is being played. The players kneeling most certainly are showing disrespect for our nation, not just protesting police brutality. Look at the point in the game during which they kneel—during the National Anthem, a tribute to the triumph of the fledgling U.S. over the tyranny of Great Britain, the triumph of a nation dedicated to freedom over an arrogant nation who kidnapped and impressed men, including Americans, into their navy, who taxed people without consent, and committed many other acts which would horrify these idiot kneelers. So they show disrespect to the nation who went to war with the mightiest country of its time in order to have a country of freedom for its citizens.
Trump will likely work on Carson....to clarify what this nonsense truly is all about.
The Republican Party NEED to start dropping ads on Senator Byrd AND Biden’s voting record on civil rights and school choice!!
Exactly, only non contact sports can safely open for the next 24 -36 months.
Tell them not kneel during the Nation Anthem then. It’s one minute out of 3 hours of boredom while referees throw flags and explain what things did or didn’t happen.
I am pretty sure that Trumps daughter and son and law are already working on him.
“the massive deadly 2nd wave is coming,”
You can’t know that, we haven’t finished the first wave yet.
all sporting events shall be conducted by virtually playing on xbox or ps23.
spread the wealth to the young SJW living in mom’s basement.
the time is now.
Let’s see....it always occurs during the Singing of the Star Spangled Banner which as far as I know never mentions BLM at all.
