You realize that it's not about them correct? It's about people who look like them that aren't fortunate to have the fame, power, a voice, money, prestige, etc...

Tell them to put their money where their mouth is. Tell them to go fix their communities instead of stomping on their country.

The NFL needs change sooner or later regardless of the kneeling.

Viewers are dropping and there are more commercials every year

It's still the most highly watched sport in the country.

And game times are actually down big time this year. NFL has made a point of trying to keep the games moving a bit faster this season.

If you follow some of them off the field, you will know a lot of them are putting their money where their mouth is. "You" see it as stomping on their country while other people see the flag as being racially profiled, descriminated against, systematic oppression. So "other people" see it as they have been "stepped on" their whole lives due to their skin color and economic status.

Guys, take it easy on William McBride. He's from a state that almost lost a war to Mexico. Clearly they don't take military as seriously as the fine patriots of Tennessee.

You're not winning the argument here. And their "protests" haven't actually changed a damn thing.

Smh... I'm informing you on how other people feel and what the flag represents to them. If you choose not to believe it. That's your problem. Don't dismiss others who's views, perspectives, and life experiences are different from your own.

Yea, they've been stepped on their entire lives. Sheesh, if you're a minority, you get more scholarships, an advantage when applying for most jobs, and preferential treatment for government contracts.

Its not an argument. I'm just informing some of you all why they are doing what are doing. How do you know it's not changing anything? Can you pass along the information that backs up your statement?

Let not this discussion distract you from the fact that we lost to the worst UF team in my lifetime and that we were in a dogfight with 0-4 Umass yesterday #staywoke
