Kaperflunk still out of work, Cam Newton to the Patriots.
That's damn funny on both parts.

@Boca Vol @volger please show me when the "NFL flipped out" because Tebow kneeled?

@Boca Vol @volger please show me when the "NFL flipped out" because Tebow kneeled?

I don’t think the NFL did but plenty of journalists did

Well, he didn't get a job after that...

 

[NashVol11]

Well, he didn't get a job after that...

What? He knelt during every game and had NFL jobs with multiple teams for years. He did it in college and was still a first round pick

 

[NashVol11]

It was mostly just Christians fawning over him for his kneeling and virginity and for that stupid speech after the Ole Miss game that UF put on a plaque, and everyone else rolling their eyes

 

[NashVol11]

Didn't realize there was someone tweeting that the NFL was upset. It wasn't even that long ago, everyone should be able to remember that that wasn't the case

Fact check: Did Tim Tebow kneeling for God on the field upset the NFL?

Might want to go back and read the articles and compare to Kap. Journalists were actually saying things like “players shouldn’t draw attention to their selves for causes and should focus on unity together not political divisions”

 

[n_huffhines]

Well, he didn't get a job after that...

He did. Everybody knew he wore his Christianity on his sleeve and he got drafted in the first round and then 2 teams gave him a chance after he proved he probably wasn't a solution at QB. He refused to try other positions

Beat me to it

Some of us never forgot he was a stinking gator

He still can . Bring Kap and his posse in , give them everything they want and think is fair to them and the players . Let’s see how much he virtue signals then .

Meanwhile, the country burns and our freedoms erode each day while we go back and forth over someone standing or kneeling before a kids game.

This is why this country is in the position it is in... we focus and virtue signal on trivial issues.

Specifically, what freedoms have we lost or which ones have "eroded"? I often asked this of people during the Obama years when right wingers would say "we're losing our freedoms"

I do agree there is far too much virtue signaling on trivial matters

 

[USAFgolferVol]

Well, he didn't get a job after that...

Because he wasn't good enough to be a starting QB, or backup for some teams, in the NFL

Kapernick was a hell of lot better QB and was effectively blackballed. He certainly is good enough for the NFL

We just had a mayor of one of our biggest cities use the PD to prevent protesters from peacefully protesting on her block that her house is on . I’d say that qualifies as erosion of our rights .

One isolated case. Show me dozens of these and I'll agree with you. Kind of like the faux war on Christmas that has passed
