brett,
that is my point. it's being elevated to create a racial issue. remember, who did trump know would get pissed off...nascar people. who did trump name in his next day tweet (weeks ago)? nascar. whites.
honestly, why was it absolutely okay and still okay for people to worship football when a good amount, of players, have criminal records? beating women, weapons and drug possessions, rape, murder...
its racial divide under the guise of nationalistic pride. like ive said many times the nfl is populated with mental midgets. if they really wanted to piss trump off they wouldve all stood at the fifty yard line hand in hand, but you and i both know they are for the most part too stupid to see 10 feet down the road. it wouldve been better to piss trump off instead they pissed off a lot of good ol boys.
instead of demanding they do what they told or they gonna get a whippin, how about say 'hey, you make more money in one year than anyone in this stadium. that flag represents the freedom and opportunity that got you out the ghetto/chicken shit farm, sailed thru a 4 year institution that costs your classmates a fucking mortgage payment, and puts food on your table.
when we start telling people they will stand it makes me think of tyrannical society. its a slippery slope. you dont want to stand i could care less. once again, i didnt serve so we could live under a government that has tyrannical authority.
