The NFL is littered with horrible people.
Always have been, always will be. Boomer Esiason though thinks someone peacefully sitting during the National Anthem because of racial injustice and police brutality is the most disrespectful in the league.
“I cannot say it in the strongest, most direct way, that it’s an embarrassment and it’s about as disrespectful as any athlete has ever been,” Esiason said at a CBS event Tuesday in New York. Esiason is an NFL commentator, as well as a morning talk-show host for WFAN, where he also took issue with Kaepernick. “And I don’t care what the cause is. The NFL football field is not a place for somebody to further their political ambitions.”
Colin Kaepernick wasn’t on the football field, he was sitting during the anthem not bringing any attention to himself.
It was the MEDIA who brought it to everyone’s attention.
Oh and I love this quote from Esiason.
Can you imagine if a player with a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat and let’s vote for (Donald) Trump? It’s the same thing.”
Hmm…….
