CNN contributor Donte Stallworth said Saturday that the NFL kneeling protests arent just about police brutality and racism, but also about the gender pay gap.

Stallworth, a former NFL wide receiver, said, The number one stated goal was to bring awareness to a lot of these issues and again, its a broad spectrum of issues. Again, its not just police brutality and community policing.
Its also, again from what Im hearing from players directly involved in these talkstheyre telling me its also about the gender pay gap, its also about housing discrimination, they have so many things that they are interested in and advocating for and they want the NFL to take ownership in and help be able to use the NFLs platform.
Not just the players platform but the NFLs platform and that from what I am hearing is a big conversation.
Yes, because all of those qualified female linebackers in the NFL get nothing compared to their male counterparts.
So let me understand, they are upset they are not being paid enough to throw a football around? I agree, getting paid 120 mil for 3 years to throw a ball around is WAY too little I mean really that’s slave labor right there/sarc
...and now he has to run to his Mensa Society meeting.
Hm, what’s the gender pay gap in professional sports?
I heard its also about flat soda at the 7 11.
Wow, you’ve really got a lot of stupid people all collected into one enterprise in this NFL-MSM setup.
I. DON'T. CARE.
It's supposed to be a GAME. An escape from all the bullsh*t that goes on in the world, a mental break.
But no, these overpaid primadonna "athletes" went ahead and ruined it. Well SCREW YOU NFL. I. DON'T. CARE.
I don't care so much I no longer watch.
FUNFL.
The gender pay gap??? Why yes, we all know that’s been a big concern of NFL linebackers for - well, gosh - YEARS, now.
Going to be a lot of unemployed strippers and paid possies when those football kneelers get laid off.
Kneeling is all about Trump. 99.99%
Oh FFS. They keep changing the narrative hoping to land on something that someone will care about.
Wow. No lie is too big or too outlandish for these people. Truth is just something to be improvised to serve the moment.
SAY WHAT??? “Gender pay gap”?
“Sorry, I don’t speak jive”. Ask June Cleaver to translate for us.
kneeling and insulting our fans, country, and flag...
is all about us fans finding other things to do instead of giving our hard=earned money to NFL Aholes!
remembering that it is OUR (gouge-priced) ticket purchases that pay these da**ed players’ huge salaries, such as Colin K’s $120,000,000.00 contract
I will NOT give NFL one red cent from now on!
Screw the N**** Federation of Losers!
All this time, I thought they were kneeling to save the narwhal.
It doesn’t matter why they hate America, just that they do.
Right, a gaggle of entitled sports millionaires in an exclusively male club give a rodent’s rectum about what the ladies are making elsewhere. This is so desperate it’s actually funny.
If sports groupies were puttin' out for patriotism, these guys would all be dressing up like Uncle Sam.
