Another view of what really happened
Tomlin says his team has one agenda and that's to win a championship and wanted to take politics out of it, fan who didn't watch Tomlin's comments says "F the Steelers for making it political."
Agreed. With the last comment
Stupid media can go suck it
Trump may have kindled the fire, but to say the media didn't fan the flames is comical.
He could have better stated that during the national anthem is not the time to demonstrate, no doubt. The media ran with this like always. It's a headline grabber.
Spare me the 'hard work' bullshit, half these jackasses would be selling crack if the NFL didn't exist.
Give me a job that pays me millions to work out and be chased by groupies begging to blow me in every town I play in, I'll ******* show you 'hard work'.
Borrowing a thought from the police thread...why don't these athletes move into the inner city neighborhoods (especially those who grew up there) and work with those residents to make a change?
Lolz. Liked post.
This is the best part of the Trump era: the racists just out themselves now.
They do.
Look up Ndomknon Suh's work in detroit.
Or the many houses built by Warrick Dunn and his foundation. DeShaun Watson grew up in one.
There are a ton of players who do great things in the community. But they don't get the publicity for it like JJ Watt and Drew Brees do.
Gee. I wonder why that is...

Everyone is a racist. It's such a convenient slur to throw around.
It's incredibly unfair to label a whole race as prejudice. Any credibility goes out the door when you do that. I have an issue with those who are "takers" and have no interest in contributing to society. That crosses all demographics and doesn't make me racist.

I've never heard this phrase before. Can you post some quotes or examples of this philosophy so I can understand what it is you're on about?
One of the first lessons Barack Obama learned in Chicago, doing Alinsky-style political organizing between Columbia and Harvard, was that the religious communities were where the action was.
The first real power connection that Saul Alinsky himself made in his own class-struggle efforts in the 1930s was with the Archbishop of Chicago. And it was in the churches and synagogues that Alinsky's initial efforts to organize labor were successful.
What Obama found in Chicago churches in the 1980s, however, was not Martin Luther King's ole time religion, the traditional Christianity of most of our ancestors, both black and white. No, what Obama found was a religion perfectly compatible with his own, already well-formed, far-left worldview.
The Black Liberation Theology of James H. Cone. Marxism emblazoned with a cross and a pulpit, pretending to use the Bible for its authority.
Before Obama even left Chicago for Harvard Law school, he had been embraced by the strange cabal of some of Chicago's most radical and activist religious leaders, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan and Michael Pfleger. Liberationists all.
Wright, the black Protestant. Farrakhan, the Black Muslim. And Pfleger, the white Catholic.
