You can agree or disagree with anyone who wants to stand, kneel or sit for the National Anthem, but that is there right and if the person is clearly telling you why they are doing it, it is pretty asinine to try to force a narrative that has already been debunked.
Mike Evans gave a very clear reason why he sat and adds his respects respect for the military.
“If this happens, then America’s not right right now,” Evans told reporters after the game. “I said this a long time ago. When [Donald Trump] ran, I thought it was a joke, and the joke continues. I’m not a political person that much, but I got common sense. And I know when something’s not right.”
“I don’t want to, you know, disrespect the veterans or anything,” Evans said. “The men and women who serve this country, I’m forever indebted to them. But the things that’s been going on in America lately, I’m not going to stand for that. When Ashton Kutcher comes out and says we’ve been punked, then I’ll stand again. But I won’t stand anymore.”
Evans added his protest would continue “as long as (Trump is) the president-elect.”
This is him telling you why he did what he did, which is his right, now if you want to disagree and say he should respect the Presidency or anything about what he actually said that is fine, but after he states this has nothing to do with the military to drop a tweet like this is baffling.
I would expect something like that for Curt Schilling not Sage Steele, very disappointing.
