Well, as long as he didn't kneel during the National Anthem, no problem, right?
I say this as a lifelong Chiefs fan -- the police should've filed charges and Hunt should've been suspended by the NFL at the *very* least. They still should now.
Nice work, Chiefs. You’ve made a lifelong fan proud tonight.
Yes, everyone, I’m aware of Tyreek Hill’s issues as well.

It’s actually possible to applaud an organization for doing the right thing in one instance and — wait for it — not approve of what they did in another instance.

I’ll praise them for doing right here. Thanks.

It's like the end of "Mary Poppins" when she realizes the Banks no longer need her and can take care of themselves. I'm getting a little choked up.
Oof.
(Nixon voice) Good God.

Notre Dame is struggling so much the coaches are just calling up random Catholics to sub in now.

Anyway, watch for me to suit up as an outside linebacker in the fourth quarter.
All right, all right, be patient. I'm almost in.

Coach says we're going to turn this around.
Apologies for my cursing that was just picked up by the network microphones.

Things are getting a little heated out here.

She had better issue a sober apology for her words and that will totally tamp down this not at all disingenuous wingnut freakout by war criminals, traitors and people who stan Adolf Hitler in their spare time.
Get ahead of it, you know. This is still salvageable provided she jerks off people who haven't won an election since the heyday of Milli Vanilli.
I mean, the American Heartland isn't going to vote for someone who *checks notes* swears like their coal miner granddad watching a football player kneel during the National Anthem.

Dear @Nike: Colin @Kaepernick7 didn't sacrifice 'everything,' and it wasn't for a good cause washex.am/2wE1Ltd
"On a day dedicated to the working man, Nike damaged its reputation by partnering with the most prominent unemployed man in sports."
"For starters, sacrificing everything for something one believes in is not necessarily wise if your cause is bad. Kamikaze pilots in World War II did this, so do suicide bombers in the 21st century. Kaepernick, of course, is well-intentioned."

I think everyone can agree that the US has enemies. Understand, America can not be invaded and conquered through conventional warfare. It's impossible. We are surrounded by Oceans. Have the strongest military in the world and a nuclear power.
So what happens when your enemies can't defeat you conventionally? Do they just give up? What happens when when billionaire and trillionaire globalists aren't happy with yachts, relaxing on private islands. When all they want is power....
Think about it. Is that really crazy? It's happened all throughout history. The Roman Empire was wealthy. Did they stop trying to conquer their known world for power? Did Alexander the Great? Did Genghis Khan? Did Hitler stop at Poland? Or did they want it all?

OK today feels like a good day to reboot a thread I do sometimes called Let's Decide If We Can Say Fascism Yet

Today's version comes to you courtesy of Dr. Lawrence Britt's work!
So a fun thing about the last couple years is that there's been folk looking around kind of nervously saying "um, guys, this is kind of worrisome, that's a lot of pre-fascism happening" and other people have swooped in like Olympic runners to say "THE F WORD IS IRRESPONSIBLE!"
So let's check in on Democracy and Freedom now and see if it's time to say fascism yet!

1/ Lost in the debate over NFL players' kneeling is how Kaepernick came to kneel during the national anthem instead of sitting.
2/ When Kaepernick first started to draw attention to the oppression of black people, he was sitting on the bench in protest.
3/ He then met w/ a couple of veterans who discussed his sitting. They advised him if he wanted to protest but show respect, he should kneel
