I enjoy watching sports, especially baseball and hockey. That’s probably not much of a surprise being originally from Ferguson, which as everyone now knows is a suburb of St. Louis. The baseball Cardinals and the Blues have provided decades of enjoyment for me, and I’m happy to have attended many of their games and watched a whole lot more on television. The football Cardinals and the Rams? Personally, not so much.
What’s my point? Whether we like it or not, sports figures are often admired, and their actions really do impact others, or at least others’ opinions. I recall Lou Brock, Bob Gibson, and Stan Musial of the Cardinals as well as names like Plager, Hull, Sutter, and Berenson of the Blues. As a kid, I saw these guys and others like them as larger than life.
So now we have the odd story of Mr. Kaepernic, which we’ve examined here before, and into which our president, with apparently nothing better to do at the G20 Summit, has just injected himself.
As far as I’m concerned Kaepernic is a coward. It’s easy to take a knee in a free country. But I’m sure the moment someone comes after him he’ll run like the coward he is.
He’s being a sincere a$$hole.
So are all other Americans, sincere, when they speak,protest, against what he does.
He can say it somewhere else.
Traitors to all what our fathers fought for.
He is the problem and people are following him like puppets on a string. Sickening.
And so is my right to be outraged! You respect ole glory for your rights.$#%&!@*you
of cours she does.. big surprise!
What else is new
He only praises him, because the media blacked out Colin’s total stated reason for his not standing for the Anthem.
Colin ALSO stated that he believed Obama’s justice department was crooked and guilty of injustice and equal treatment under the law, with respect to how Hillary was being treated.
