ESPN’s Jon Gruden in 2016: The NFL should “cut” Colin Kaepernick for protesting.

ABC’s Howard Cosell in 1968:
If you’ve never seen it, here is video of Tommie Smith and John Carlos protesting during the national anthem at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City.
Tommie Smith explained the symbolism of the demonstration to ABC News and stated, “I proud to be a Black man.”
Back then, the NFL allowed Tommie Smith and John Carlos a shot at playing in the NFL even after protesting at the Olympics.

Today, all 32 teams are blackballing Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid. ImageImage

1/ Dave Portnoy once said he was going to say racist things, and then Portnoy and his Barstool staff proceeded to say racist things about Colin Kaepernick.

No credible company or sports league should be partnering with Barstool.
2/ Dave Portnoy and Barstool said Colin Kaepernick had “terrorist skin,” “looks like a terrorist,” “isn’t really that Black” and his biracial and adopted situation “was all jacked up.”

@PhilipsNorelco and @NCAA’s Arizona Bowl partner with Barstool.
Dave Portnoy has used the N-word slurs on Barstool Sports multiple times.

Black Barstool employees urged Dave Portnoy to stop, but he ignored them. Some employees quit over it.

🚨 Conservatives has been blaming New York fire deaths on the vaccine mandate, but it turns out FDNY has been organizing to fake injuries and sick outs to protest the mandate according to anti-vax protester Michael Bruno who works with the husband of a New York firefighter.
Just before this, another anti-vaxxer was discussing how “two people died in the Bronx because of the lack of firemen.”

Also, when she shared how SDNY wasn’t picking up trash, Michael Bruno celebrated with a fist pump.

These anti-vaxxers are supposedly pro health.
One NYC anti-vaxxer said she knows someone on “NYPD Chat” who said “a lot of NYPD called in sick” to protest the vaccine mandates.
