NFL’s Olivier Vernon tells fans if they don’t like him kneeling, ‘don’t come to the game’

In Vernon’s defense, what he’s doing here is far less destructive to his employer’s business than what the leadership of the New York Giants has been doing with that team for the last four months. They couldn’t have done more damage to the team’s brand if the owners, management and the entire roster fled to Syria and joined ISIS.

he’s a thug.....I could determine that after his first interview last year...seemed very entitled and had a chip on his shoulder.

[onedoug]

I’m assuming that the only people who attend these “games” are America haters.

[Dont tread and Live]

a classic kneegro in fact

[ontap]

And the Giants record reflect this idiots wish.

“It is the most egregious act of defiance. It just blows me away.”

It's the most blatant display of arrogance and ignorance.........

I don’t think I would wear one even if it was given to me free.

Well maybe for mucking out the barn.

The NFL Shop would have to pay me a lot more than that to give me that crap.

[Redleg Duke]

Yeah, he reminds me of the guy who puts a pistol to his head and says, “Don’t laugh...yer next!”

Look for them on the racks at Goodwill soon. Then the panhandlers in NYC will be sporting them.

[caltaxed]

Vernon's more intelligent coworkers and their agents must be cringing when Vernon kneels or opens his mouth.

The NFL Players Union meetings can't be much fun lately.

[RC one]

way ahead of you buddy.

[Personal Responsibility]

Vernon should worry more about his play than his political stances. Maybe if he played a little better the Giants wouldn’t be 2-10.

[Jim Noble]

Sounds like a plan!

[mewzilla]

I wonder if all the folks whose jobs depend on fans coming to the games feel the same way? You know, the maintenance crews, concessions people, other vendors...

Players don't give a tinker's dam about those folks, do they...

[DarkWaters]

Well, when the sale price is $5.00, then it will make a cheap reusable diaper.

Where does he think that 85 million is going to come from? How much of that is from taxpayer subsidies?

If a cat buys into the SJW BLM BS, then he’s a racist

Wonder what the reaction would be if white athletes protested against discriminatory admissions and employment policies and acts under phony “affirmative action” BS?

Or against black on white crime?

Would the media find use of the word “racists” by any chance?

Can do, Olive Oyl.
