Wasnt ? lewis telling shannon a few weeks back he doesnt agree with the way kap was protesting?

there needs to be a round table discussion on how to go about this.
a brainstorming session.
this ? looks all over the place and this is why its not taken seriously.
half these ? doing it outta pressure and trying to belong, not even understanding. -

And lol @ Ray Lewis and LeSean McCoy trying to seem down now after they’ve already exposed themselves.The players that stood, locking arms together are wack af. The players that knelt with their hands over their heart are wack af. (They should have stood for all of that) All of those ? that are half-assing it are an insult to the ones that are really doing it for the cause.
Either go all out or ? the way.
Although I agree it's weak, I think it's a step in the right direction.
Something is better than nothing. -

But Khan donated to Trump 1 million, That is just a PR stunt for him
Two words my brother: Tax cuts. Khan sold his soul a long time ago and doesnt give a ? .
Khan is from Pakistan which has a 95-97% muslim population. Trump ? on muslims for over a year and Khan still gave Trump a millie. Khan doesnt care about religious freedom for muslims or the players.....its all about that chedda.
A million aint ? if you can save 80...90....100, ... + million in taxes which would leave this country broke. -

Nah, Aaron Rodgers has been supporting Kap for a while now. The following is from a month ago........
https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/08/30/aaron-rodgers-colin-kaepernick-nfl-free-agencyAaron Rodgers on Kaepernick: I Think He Should Be On A Roster; Because Of Protests He's Not
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers believes that Colin Kaepernick belongs on an NFL roster but his decision to protest the national anthem may have affected his status, he says in an ESPN profile by Mina Kimes.
"I think he should be on a roster right now," Rodgers said. "I think because of his protests, he's not."
Rodgers added that he does not plan on sitting or kneeling during the national anthem out of his personal respect for the flag. Rodgers had a similar view in 2016 when he was first asked bout the national anthem protests by Sporting News and said: "To me, the flag represents the greatest ideals of the United States of America, not the worst. But different people look at different things and have different feelings about it. That’s what freedom of expression is all about."
Rodgers says that he views the decision by other players to protest as peaceful and respectful. He has spoken with teammate Martellus Bennett on multiple occasions about his decision to sit during the anthem and other protests.
"I think the best way I can say this is: I don't understand what it's like to be in that situation," Rodgers told ESPN. "What it is to be pulled over, or profiled, or any number of issues that have happened, that Colin was referencing -- or any of my teammates have talked to me about." -
If David Robinson has something good to say now would be the time...since hes known as the admiral...
But something tells me I dont want that -

i got alot of traveling to do...but i really want to get a KAP jersey and take pics in front of tourist areas
About to cop this
If you buy this shirt, you're giving the NFL your money.
They are profiting off of Kaepernick, while simultaneously blackballing him from working and feeding his family.
Yea you're right, appreciate it. Haven't bought it yet, gonna look on eBay and purchase from a third party. -

Yeah I know he’s made comments in support of Kaepernick I don’t dislike Aaron I’m just saying from the pic he posted isn’t showing much unless he kneels for the anthem too. -
Props to @Cain for understanding my Stevie Wonder post..........LOL

This is probably what it's going to come to. Either they will keep players in the locker room during the anthem or stop singing that ? all together -
Its hard to give owners props when Kap is still a free agent.
