Kneeling has NEVER been an act of defiance.
Kneeling has ALWAYS been an act of submission.

Kapler turned out to be a real little schmuck. A baseball anti-Second Amendment KAPO.

As a Giants fan, I was leery of Kapler replacing the irreplaceable Bruce Bochy. Then I started hearing him talk baseball. Smart, great sense of humor, even a little elequent talking about the game and his players.

Just ridiculous he feels, like our Hollywood numbskulls do, that we care anything about his political opinions.

You’re a good and sometimes even innovative manager, Kapler. Stay in your lane and on your feet.

I’m a Mets fan and I remember his uneventful tenure with the Phillies. Yes, keep the protest to yourself.

I don’t blame him. He’s probably mad at the direction Joe Biden is taking our country.

They should make him stand for Lee Greenwood.

Yeah, that time with the Phils wasn’t very pretty. But he made Manager of the Year with the Giants last year. I think he’s a smart guy, which makes me doubly disappointed he would get political when he really doesn’t have to.

Your players all had career years last year, it was fun to watch. Speaking of which, Joc Pederson beat us up pretty good a few nights ago. Ouch 😣

To add to that, I got thinking about how Bochy would have reacted if questioned about the tragedy. I can just hear his gruff voice as he shakes his head and says, “Those poor kids,” then thanks the reporters and leaves the podium.

Oh my gosh, that game the other night was an unbelievable classic. I tuned in when the G-Men had it 8-2 (after they’d had a couple of really bad losses) and kind of couldn’t believe what the hell happened as it unfolded. That game is why we watch baseball.

I know. However, did you notice that Colin Kaepernick never kneeled ONCE during the Trump Administration?

Skip being spectators of leftist professional sports, support the NRA and go to the range.
