OK, so another Sunday, and even more millionaire ballplayers are kneeling, sitting, hugging one another, or even staying in the locker room to protest…….a few observations:

First of all, I would just as soon the President not send out any more tweets or put out any more comments about these “protesters”. Please understand, it’s not that I support them – it’s just that, from where I sit, it’s only giving press and adding fuel to something that just doesn’t deserve it.

Secondly, what exactly are they protesting? I hear the same line over and over. They are protesting the improper treatment of African Americans. OK first of all, which incidents are you referring to? Here’s the deal, normally when we see a protest or a movement of any kind, the platform or statement that is being made is abundantly clear. For instance: ANTI FA protesters are making a few things more than clear. They are making it clear that they are, for the most part, ignorant. They are making it clear that they are cowards who will only act out if they are in a mob, and then they are making it clear that they stand firmly for a communist, government led way of life……see point one…..ignorant.

Back to the original question. What are you protesting? Which incidents are you referring to? Are you seriously trying to act like your reality resembles anything like normal life? I actually heard a local radio host, who happens to be black, say that others who aren’t black cannot possibly understand his life. He tried to prove his point by telling a story about why he is reluctant to go out for a jog early in the morning outside his Buckhead apartment.

If you want to be taken seriously by those of us who happen to respect the flag and all that it stands for, tell us WHAT you are protesting. Give me examples. You must, of course give me examples of mistreatment in which, after the facts came out, the police were found to be in the right. Show me the examples where any person, black, white, blue, green, whatever does not have the chance to make a life. Tell me why it is that you find it so easy to disrespect our flag and those that fought for her. Tell me how you think the country you live in is so terrible, and then tell me where else on earth you would rather live.

This country, and the opportunity it affords, is the only one on earth where you can go out and play a game, and make more money than most of us will ever see in our lives. Please understand, this is not about the money. If the market dictates that kind of salary and you can get it, more power to you. Just don’t turn around and expect to be taken seriously when you form your protest against…………what was it again?

I say let’s all protest. I, of course, will only be available when I’m not working, or taking care of things around my house, or spending time with my family. I am available at any other time to protest…..something, anything, I feel left out.
