NBC sports reporter Bob Costas assumed the role of political commentator Monday when he praised Colin Kaepernick and called out President Donald Trump on CNNs New Day.
Its very clear that theres almost no one in the NFL who wants to support or rationalize the tone and content of President Trumps remarks, he said. I hope others follow Kapernicks lead. Not in some of the naive political statements hes occasionally made, but getting involved in the community and actually doing things. Which many NFL players already do, but its just not spotlighted.
Costas said he supported the decision by the Pittsburgh Steelers to stay in the locker room during the national anthem to avoid putting political pressure on their players.
I was okay with it and I think what Mike Tomlin said, the coach of the Steelers made a lot of sense. We dont want our players to have to choose. They may feel one way they may feel another, they may be apolitical. So well stay off, Costas said.

Screw Bob Costas and his bad toupee.
Costas feels guilty because he’s white. So stupid.
Costas goes full Treasonous Commie Retard. You never go full Treasonous Commie Retard.
Old Pink Eye speaks. No one cares.
Since the whole league has gone Kaepernick there is no point of not signing him, is there?
