See, I don't agree. The country was founded for freedom of religion and includes freedom of speech, etc. I am ok with him stating his mind and doing it. I don't appreciate it the forum he does it in, nor the spotlight, and do I think it is anti-American? Yes!!!! but that's what people have fought and died for...his right to be allowed to do it.

A privileged person like himself growing up with what he had and now making millions doing what he does and offering himself up as a role model to others...hypocritical.
Probably like if we had a POTUS doing the same thing....

Do I think he should try and find a home more suitable for himself where he and his people will be treated great...sure. With his money he can take himself and a lot of others to the promised land...wherever that is.

Do I think that if I were in a defensive lineman's role, would I throw a few extra jabs to get to him or to take him out...yes. Not sure why that doesn't happen though. Sack that sucker.
He doesn't get extra "jabs" because he isn't even a starter anymore. Go check the pictures of him out on google, it's hilarious how clean cut and smiling he was shortly ago and now looks like a Syrian no fly list candidate.

naw, he probably gets off on how many times he sees his name has been googled. Let him fade into obscurity.
I love the irony in one of the most violent on and off the field sports there is to be so upset over police brutality lol. Woman beaters and junkies galore.

Whatever happen to free speech?
Perry, however, called the act of using the jersey as a stomping mat “racist” and is calling for a boycott of the bar. He posted a picture of taped-down jersey which has since been shared over 5,800 times on the social media platform. He says Krossroads has now lost a loyal customer.

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

That's the irony as I keep pointing out with these people. It is freedom of speech and expression for Kaepernick to make a statement and his right but if you disagree and have your own message then we need to boycott you and shame you for being racist. It's such a dill in word for them I bet they interchange it with things that are uunrelated. "I got a flat tire, damn racist tire".

NFL tries to reassure teams as TV ratings drop
http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2016/10/0 ... -drop.html


The National Football League has sent a memo to team owners seeking to ease concerns about the ratings decline that has hit football this fall.

Through the first four weeks of the season, NFL viewership has declined 11 percent, and among the crucial adults 18-49 demographic that advertisers covet, ratings are down 12 percent.

“While our partners, like us, would have liked to see higher ratings, they remain confident in the NFL and unconcerned about a long-term issue,” the letter from NFL senior executives Brian Rolapp and Howard Katz said, adding that over the last 15 years, ratings viewership has grown 27 percent and that football “continues to be far and away the most powerful programming on television and the best place for brands and advertisers.”

he league said the large drop in ratings for prime-time games on ESPN, CBS and NBC is likely because of “unprecedented interest in the Presidential election.” On Sunday afternoons, the audience for Fox News, CNN and MSNBC has increased as well, and the league believes that is cutting into those games. The letter also cited the 2000 election as another time when NFL ratings took a hit due to coverage of the race between George Bush and Al Gore and the subsequent legal battle over the results.

As for a potential backlash by some viewers angered at players not standing for the national anthem to protest of police brutality, the NFL said it sees no evidence to that being a factor in declining ratings: “In fact, our own data shows that the perception of the NFL and its players is actually up in 2016.”

The NFL said it was issuing the memo to all the teams in response to media inquiries about the decline in ratings. Long seen as invincible against the trends and changing media habits that have negatively affected other programming, network executives and advertisers have been scrambling to figure out if this is a short-term blip because of political news or the start of a long-term trend.
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

I rarely watch anymore. A lot of reason I typically catch it is because it is at most places with tvs that I frequent like pubs but at home I've seen a few games only and they were recorded and ff'd through. I could easily do without it if I had motorcycle and car racing year round.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, 29, has NEVER registered to vote
Sacramento Bee has found that Kaepernick has never registered to vote
He turned 18 in 2005, but did not register in either California or Nevada, where he attended college
