Why can’t more people think like RG3?
It isn’t a hard concept. We are so judgmental and then overlook the actual message. Just because you wouldn’t do something, doesn’t make what someone else is doing wrong.
Here is what RG3 had to say about Kaepernick.
“My job isn’t to judge what another man feels about anything, so that’s where I stand with that,” Griffin said Tuesday before Browns practice.
“I think you definitely have to bring a spotlight to issues that you feel are pertinent to society,” Griffin said. “Colin Kaepernick’s stance on the American flag, I can’t judge him for that. My stance is that for me, I’m a military brat. My parents both served. My dad did 21 [years]. My mom did 13. So that represents something totally different for me. So I can’t judge him on what his stance is or what his beliefs are. I can only just go about it the way I know how to.”
“It’s not my place to judge what he wants to do or what he doesn’t want to do. So I’m focused on playing football, and if there’s any social issues that I feel like I need to address, then I’ll address them in my own way. But I’m not going to judge another man for addressing it how he wants to address it.”
Even if RG3 disagrees with Kaepernick he didn’t throw him under the bus, because the message is far more important than the act.
