An NFL "Protest" I wholly support...

[Bailey Guns]

Stopped watching "professional" sports for the most part awhile ago. I feel that any player that takes advantage of the stage he / she gets payed to thier sport for to voice his / her political or personal feelings shouldn't be getting paid. I don't give a crap about your opinions just do what your getting paid to do.

Yep. The teams, owners, management, coaches, league leadership...they've seen the last dime they'll ever see from me. Won't patronize the ball parks, won't watch them on TV, won't buy their products. I know...BFD as far as they're concerned. I don't give a rat's ass if every team from every league from every sport folded and they never played a game again. It would only impact my life in a positive way.

You know I always admired and appreciated some athletes for the talent they do have. Having played competitive ice hockey I can appreciate the skill and talent it requires.

You see I did not use the word "Respect".
Respect is something earned, not given.
I have respect for the guy making $15.00 an hour loading trucks with a forklift for 12 hours a day because he is doing what he has to do to.
He is not some prima donna playing a game for an hour one day a week for millions of dollars.
The guy loading trucks has a greater impact on society than the athlete.
