_fan being a spokesman for the liberal media, smdh

I get annoyed at conservatives being one trick ponies. (sorry wacky) Things generally are never as black and white as they want them to be and folks need to listen (actually listen) to both sides. You can still stand (or kneel) for what you deem important, but IMO we need to find ways to unite and not divide and I tire of people on both sides of the isle (seemingly) looking to be divisive. It gets old.
Every time I try to unite ppl on here, the libs attack.  :frown: Goes both ways, like you said.
This has nothing to do with Trump, dummy.
Nobody cared until he jingled shiny keys in front of you Friday and called players SOBs....you took it hook line and sinker bud.

The kneeling bull crap has been tiresome for a long time. Trump's a dumb eff and i've stated that many times, but you won't listen, because like _fan said, ppl hear what they want to hear.

You are saying Trump's speech Friday had no impact on this subject?

wacky, Trump opening up his mouth again and calling on owners to fire their players absolutely led to the stuff of last weekend. Every organization was looking for their own unique response. So we had part united front, but also part "who can do the best show" (see Jerry and the Cowboys) from each team. It was ridiculous.

BTW, I still enjoyed watching both the Chiefs and Cowboys. IMO most of these "boycotts" are laughable.

The NFL should seriously just stop playing the anthem.

Absolutely, at least just keep the teams in the lockerroom as was common place less than 10 years ago when the NFL decided they needed paid patriotism.

Wackycat08, could you please give an example of when you tried to unite people but libs attacked you?
I have tried to see both sides many times down here. I agree when Trump is being a jackass all the time.

What I don't do is chase ppl around like dax 24/7/365 to make sure to let him know how much a dumb eff he is 24/7/365 for having opposing viewpoints.

I have a 10 o'clock meeting guys. Enjoy!

Also, phil, I never said that. wake up.

I think the grown men who burned their NFL jerseys will probably just buy new ones in a couple of weeks. What else are those guys going to do with their time?
Exactly. People will watch because their day to day life is mundane.

A good thing about how football does the anthem is that the players are on their sidelines and can sit on the bench.  How's this going to work in hoops and hockey?  Kneeling is too submissive.  I hope that in hoops, the teams have the staff run the little time-out stools to the anthem lines so the players can get comfy.

Oh, well in that case nbd
ppl wear american shirts for christ sakes. stop acting like you gaf

ppl kneel during the anthem for eff sakes. stop acting like you gaf

the point is nobody at all gaf (and rightly so) about people dishonoring the flag by wearing flag stuff, just like nobody at all gaf about people dishonoring the flag by kneeling for the national anthem.

people are angry about it because of what the players are protesting, because they don't believe it's a real issue and/or don't want to acknowledge it.

I think the kneelers are suffering from a lack of brand messaging.

It's amazing how quickly my FIL's argument went from "respect the flag" to "they can go back to Africa and see how great things are there" when he was pushed on it

If you are sitting on the toilet, and hear the national anthem, what are supposed to do?

Yea, the pivots when you press people on this are pretty revealing. Like Wak's "mixed breed" comments.

I also find it laughable when people are like, "you can't protest racial inequality because you're rich." Like people aren't allowed to give a voice to the oppressed. That one probably bugs me the most TBH.

I think the mix breed thing from wackycat08 was just a very obvious ploy to bait someone into fighting with him so he could feel persecuted

Yeah, when people (conservatives) aren't willing to boil it down to the issue of racial equality, for the most part any fair discussion is over. And I get it, I will lean toward personal responsibility myself and I still hold to that strongly, but I can't deny the problems with the system in place in this country or the fact that I can never relate to what its like to be a person of color.

i don't know about that. but the cause certainly has an inherent weakness in that there is no concrete end goal. for example there is no law stating police must discriminate based on color. in fact the opposite is true, so the end goal is very nebulous. doesn't make the problem any less real, though.

It's purely to draw attention and start a discussion. Lots of people still believe that we do not have any racial inequality in our system. If anything, these protests highlight how uncomfortable people are with talking about it still.

Some folks would rather these demonstrations happen where they can completely ignore them, so they get upset when it happens during an event where they thought they could escape from reality for a few hours.

And because they still don't want to talk about the issues, they try to turn the conversation to something entirely different like how Americans should conduct themselves during the national anthem.

comments after old guy shared that fake players must stand NFL rulebook thing.

um, check Snopes...

Snopes is a liberal/democratic fake news outlet.

Well, okay, how about the KC Star, and about 5or 6 other mainstream media stories I've seen.

"Mainstream media" is already confirmed to be a liberal/democratic fake news propagandist medium.

Kaps white mom is pretty pissed at him. It's a real thing. Just as real as how many of you guys take crap over the top and make sure you feel offended by the littlest things.
