Good for him.
But too little too late for the NFL.
1 out of 4 hundred, no thanks.
Pouncey, his teammate Villanueva and a few others remind me that there are still people in the @NFL that are worthy of support.
...Things are going to get really ugly for him, really quick. We’ll see how quickly he’s given an ‘attitude adjustment’ and forced to get with the pogrom (not a typo).
Remember what happened to Carr?
Things that are “controversial” for the NFL:
Wearing the name of a fallen officer. Maurkice Pouncey
Wearing the name of a fallen soldier. Alejandro Villanueva
Go Steelers Offensive line!
Standing for the National Anthem. Baker Mayfield
You’ll have to refresh my memory. Which Carr? There are actually several NFL players listed with that particular surname.
Derek Carr. Quarterback for the Raiders.
Didn’t kneel with the team so the offensive line just let rushers through to punish him.
Ended up with some damage to his spine.
Yawn.
Good for him.
In these days, good old common sense seems radical.
He is pretty tough, but where will his teammates line up?
This might be the act that turns the nfl back to football and away from virtue signalling.
How about wearing no name at all? Cut all the social justice crap. Cut all the political crap. The players should remove their own names from their jerseys and play as a team. Okay, the last one will never fly, but there was a day in which that was the case in football. It’s too late for me. I’m never going to watch an NFL game again.
Some people call him MaurKice. Because he believes in the pompitous of love.
Local kid does good! Watched him and his twin brother grow up here.
I heard at UF he was a midnight toker.
The lack of respect for our National Anthem was the straw that broke the camel’s back. There are many of us finding something else to do productive, rather than watch over paid spoiled sports players.
Second straight week without the NFL. I understand the team I usually follow did very well, but I haven’t watched a second and quite frankly haven’t really missed it.
