So, what will the NFL say in defense of taking a knee in “unity” with Colin

by

Colin Kaepernick

 Colin Kaepernick donated $25,000 to group named after convicted cop killer and former Black Liberation Army member Assata Shakur who broke out of jail and fled to Cuba.

So Colin so hates the police that he affirms the killer of an innocent policeman?  Is this the “unity” that the NFL and its owners, coaches, and players are standing with arms linked?  Or have they fallen for a lie – and can’t back down?  Now add this:

Is it a passing storm or an existential problem? That’s a key question for the NFL as it grapples with the mushrooming controversy of players kneeling in protest during the national anthem, and President Donald Trump’s persistent bashing of the kneelers. A new Yahoo Finance poll suggests the NFL has an enduring problem on its hands. Nearly 62% of 9,056 respondents told us they plan to watch less pro football in response to the anthem controversy. Thirty-six percent said they plan to buy less NFL merchandise, and 32% have chosen not to attend a game they would otherwise have gone to. Those findings all have financial implications for the NFL and its 32 team owners.
