It's much easier staying in the system for a lifestyle of which they're chronically addicted to as long as it pays them to not work and have babies sufficient to live life without working. Further studies have shown the only ones who take advantage of the programs are those already able and willing to do the work with or without the helps. It's not those yelling in the streets... who won't do the work.

Pete Carroll makes a living playing a game invented by white people. Maybe he should find a career in a sport invented by black people. He might not make as much money, live in a $6 million dollar house, but it would only be fair.

Joe needs to stick with coaching and keep quiet about politics......In fact the entire athletic field should stick with athletics.......

Seattle is a mess. He’s just part of the mess. It’s like the edges of the US are gangrenous and rotting.

My time is valuable. I will listen to someone who I believe has something of value to say, but you must first demonstrate credibility.

Did you do the hard work to get an education?
Did you do the hard work to get a job and hold a job, improving every day the work you do?
Did you get married and stay married before you had kids?
Did you care for you kids to insure that they will be productive members of society for their own good?

If so, I suspect that there is little that we will disagree on. And I would probably enjoy talking to you. We might even go fishing together sometime.

Next, player will stop mid-play, handed a microphone, and spend 30 minutes preaching their liberal politics. Watch, it will happen.

He means we should stand there and get yelled at, lectured and blamed for all of their problems in life. Then apologize and feel guilty for being white.

To remove the fuel from this fire STOP playing the National Anthem at all sporting events.

The days when sporting events had something to do with ideals like sportsmanship and national pride ended decades ago. It's time to 'move on'...

I have no interest in listening to people based on the color of their skin. I will listen to people who prove they are worth listening to, and I will ignore racists who demand that I decide based on the color of their skin, regardless of that color.

I am forced to "listen to black people" every day. In nearly every car all around me.

Pete,

You may want to consider where your millions are going to come from. It sure as well won’t be the assclowns in BLM.

Call me what you want, do not expect me to pay you to do it.

Are the Seattle Seahawks a bastketball team?

Football team?

Baseball team?

Why would I care what their coach has to say even if he is” passionate”?
