New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees apologized multiple times last week for his comments against kneeling during the national anthem. His wife, Brittany, followed it up with an apology of her own on Saturday.
In an Instagram post on the “Brees Dream Foundation” page, Brittany posted a message which featured two quotes from Martin Luther King Jr., and comments of her own that started with, “WE ARE THE PROBLEM.”
“I write this with tears in my eyes and I hope you all hear our hearts,” Brittany Brees wrote. “I have read these quotes and scripture 1000 times and every time I read it and the words sink into my heart. I think yes this is what it’s all about...Only until the last few days, until we experienced the death threats we experienced the hate… Did I realize that these words were speaking directly to us.. how could anyone who knows us or has had interactions with us think that Drew or I have a racist bone in our body? But that’s the whole point. Somehow we as white America, we can feel good about not being racist, feel good about loving one another as God loves us.
“We can feel good about educating our children about the horrors of slavery and history. We can read books to our children about Martin Luther King, Malcolm X., Hank Aaron, Barack Obama, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman.. and feel like we are doing our part to raise our children to love , be unbiased and with no prejudice,” Brittany Breez continued.

death threats? because he had an opinion contrary to the race-baiters?
we have some crazy people
Absolutely pathetic, what is this like the third or fourth apology for a completely non-controversial statement?
Is this what your PR firm told you to do?
Why don’t you let them gangb@ng her, Drew, and then stab yourself in the arm so you aren’t better than Colon Krapernick anymore, maybe that will assuage them, eh?
Brees should have just shut up after the first time. What a puss. Both of them. I have that sinking feeling that the kneeling is going to start up again this year.
Once you apologize to the left like this, they own your ass... forever. You will always be forced to keep apologizing and kow-towing.
Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger got his hair cut during the lockdown, and Gov. Wolf scolded him for it. Then Wolf goes marching with the protesters.
I'm thinking Ben isn't a pansy a$$ that will apologize for practicing his civil rights. Roethlisberger said he wasn't going to shave or cut his hair until he could throw a ball to a team mate again. And he did...both.
The moron Mayor of Minneapolis Fray found out what pandering to the left and the thugs gets you. Brees, and the rest of the apologists will meet the same fate.
She married a cuck.
Well said...thanks.
Some black athletes like Charles Barkley came out in defense of Brees early on. I wonder how they feel about him now. He's made them look like fools.
Yes...
Blacks demand White cops wash their feet in church like Jesus, Whites say “yes.”
Whites politely ask Blacks to wash their feet in church like Jesus, Blacks say, “I ain’t your f**king slave, you cracker-ass racist honkey !”
Only by the media's version of him. Malcolm X said a month before he was murdered.
“You put them first,” said Malcolm X, “and they put you last. ‘Cause you’re a chump. A political chump! … Any time you throw your weight behind a political party that controls two-thirds of the government, and that party can’t keep the promise that it made to you during election time, and you are dumb enough to walk around continuing to identify yourself with that party — you’re not only a chump but you’re a traitor to your race.”
XFL only.
BLM fatigue will hit. If I were to watch
They won’t let us have heroes or symbols. Anyone or anything you can rally around, they won’t stop until it’s been torn down, set fire to, and the ashes pissed on. That’s what they do to the flag. That’s what they want to do to Donaldus Magnus. It’s what they just did to Drew Brees. It’s why they’re making all the beautiful, legendary cities into third-world shit holes, why they had to grab Elian Gonzalez and send him back to Cuba, why China’s destroying Hong Kong.
After Ezra Pound got freed from the nuthouse, got over his infatuation with Mussolini and fascism, got over his anti-Semitism, the very last verse in his very last Canto was “Be a man, not a destroyer.”
The leftards are the Destroyers. They must be stopped. Donald has the backs of the Deplorables. We must have his. Be men, not destroyers.
Hint: Show me the money.
When he is NFL Commissioner.
Jay-Z for all intents and purposes is now the NFL Commissioner.
Keep stepping in it you idiot
