I’ve been told by the health authority when I was hired if I say anything derogatory against the sitting government while at work or through email or publicly while at work my employment will be terminated. Even saying the things I do in here would get me fired.

I don’t think that’s right (and not sure it would hold up on court) but they pay me loads so I shut my mouth.

Saying that, Kaepernick‘s situation is totally different. He has to take drastic steps to highlight and expose the blatant persecution black Americans have to face from law enforcement throughout their country. The NFL should have worked with him and others players to resolve instead of blacklist. Once again, the optics are terrible.

It's tough topic. All I'm saying is that as a celebrity he had different means at his disposal to get his message out. But he chose to bastardize his place of employment to do it. And then cry about it. Different standards I get it but why is he allowed to do it while the rest of us aren't? Tough one...

So a bunch of old white dudes warn ( tell ) a young star black QB he shouldn't rock the boat and use his status to promote awareness about unfair treatment towards other black people or there may be repercussions. He takes a stand and does it anyways and hasn't had a contract since.

I mean I didn't want the guy on the Dolphins but that's because he wore a Castro shirt to a press conference in Miami.

Your contempt for anything liberal doesn't equate to police brutality and outright murder. Nor is your job anywhere near as exclusive as the 32 starting NFL QB positions available annually.

Imagine a young black man in a predominantly black league speaking out against racial disparity and violence towards young black people and using any influence they have to bring attention to it. It's too bad that too many sponsors and viewers and a non-racist president took offense to it instead of improving the situation.

Some good points here. However I don't typically 'contempt' everything liberal and I certainly don't condone Police Brutality. Not one bit. My Father was RCMP for 30 years and treated all races very very well and was very well respected for it. I always admired that about him. But I do not condone Kaepernicks actions to get his message out. Again it's EXACTLY like many jobs out there regardless of 'exclusivity'. People can't use their place of employment for political actions without consequences. Kaepernick did that and paid for it. Can't weep for him. Is what it is.

Benning interview from today about Brackett

- VANTEL

Good interview & pretty clear to me on Judd moving on. GL to him he will land on his feet. It’ll take a certain type of GM to cede him his wishes on autonomy that isn’t a such a scout minded GM as JB is.

I think everyone is entitled to their opinion but I get the impression Jim does actually know what he is doing and has a plan.

I can see this core being my favorite ever.

If we keep all the top end players here we will be in the PO's for 5+ years or more.
