    Just so all you guys know, the majority of the Georgia Bulldogs are black, like real black people. They most likely agree with Kaepernick. Hell the team is sponsored by Nike. Many of the comments here are low key racist . How do you cheer for black boys on the field , but make comments directly opposing to what is best for their well being ? If you guys said these statements to any black player on our team, please believe they would not agree with you.

    You have to understand and believe people when they show you who they are and that's what these own here doing they are showing you truly who they are. All of this because of a man who did something to bring attention to Injustice but they would never understand and they don't give a **** to care to understand

    We are all alarmed by many injustices. Does that give one the right to disrespect the flag, the anthem, and all they stand for? No! Kneeling for the National Anthem is an injustice.

    If you think he disrespected the flag tell the white veteran who asked him to do it in the first place that then. That veteran fought in the Iraqi War and he is the one who talked to Kaepernick about taking that stand and he is a white guy

    Keith, that veteran is entitled to his opinion, and so is this veteran. I think he is dead wrong. I have many friends I served with, black and white, who agree it is a bad idea. Two wrongs don't make a right. Disrespecting the flag, the NA, and those who gave their lives for our freedoms is the worst possible message you can send to children, who happen to look up to NFL players. As I said above, I even agree with the goal, but I disagree with the form of protest. There are hundreds of positive ways the NFL could support CK's goals without disrespecting our country.

    So who will you be buying instead? Adidas? Reebok? New balance?

    Brooks. A much better product IMHO.

    You guys who don’t like this thread. Why are you in here? You can’t see the title of the thread?

    Do you think it’s your personal job to mod the forum? And just in lieu of being granted any actual software controls over the forum, you try to do it with your posts?

    Just trying to figure you guys out.
