Re: NFL players to kneel for anthem as a group
No. I am not a hypocrite. I did not demonstrate that. You did not corner me to prove your goal.
I am a realist. I like facts. Entertainers and pro athletes do things in their jobs and careers that others cannot do. No one gives applause, praises me, follows me, follows my orders, demands, commands, and more when I show up to work. This happens to entertainers. Pro athletes, lets stick to football since we are discussing football, don't have to get fingerprinted, apply, send three references each of professional and personal, get state certified, random urine samples , be careful what they post on social media ( sexist, sexual, racist, anti religious, graphic jokes, just even a picture on vacay in a swimsuit, etc), and yes even personal life in multiple marriages and kids, ehhhhhh....emmmmmmm, not not go over in getting hired or keeping your contract, None if this applies to entertainers and athletes. I am not saying I like or agree with their lifestyles, choices , but their line of work is different. Boowhoo, life is not fair. As for them kneeling, oh this again. It is so exhausting. The NFL cannot or a law cannot be made to make them stand up. Even in colleges and high schools and elementary schools, you cannot make them stand or make them kneel or sit. You pick your battles. This, as the NFL figured out, is an exhausting battle they cannot win. Do what you want. Sit, kneel, squat, walk n talk, turn your back....look for all of this to happen. My only question is if a baller , coach’s staff, other sideline people, want to stand , do they have they right without being called uncooperative, racist, stupid, non- team member, and so on. I had this discussion with some people as to what they would do if someone , a fellow spectator, in the stadium told them to sit down. I was told they would politely ask , say, “ Did you pay for my ticket.?” Look for fights in the stadium to happen with some people suggesting to others that they should sit down. |
