Has Deion said it's not true?

 

[carolinakid]

i do not think it fake

 

[KVB]

i do not think it fake

Did you even read what you posted?

Or did you just blindly post a random link and copy the headline from yahoo?

Did you even read the headline, or did you really just post it blindly?

Not gonna lie, I think it's strange that you would take the time to start a forum thread with nothing but a link and then go on to comment about the story showing everyone that you don't even know what it's about.

Why do that to yourself?

 

[Wagerallsports]

Ok, so I see now it's said to be fake

However, did players really kneel at all??

The race war has begun. Deion is leading it.

 

[Wagerallsports]

Now I'm curious If he has players kneeling and NOT doing anything about it

 

[carolinakid]

do they even show it any longer Wager on tv

Well I can say this...

If there are any college kids kneeling, then kick them off the team

If they think things are so bad, then they don't need those free scholarships and should be taken away from them

I'm going to bombard you with some serious questions about this topic, Wager. I hope that's ok!

How are the college kids/anyone else disrespecting the flag by kneeling?
What if they're kneeling but place their hand over their heart? Would that still be disrespectful?
What if a football player is still wearing their helmets during the national anthem, is that disrespectful?

I was taught that you're supposed to stand attention, face the flag, place your hand over your heart, remove your hat and shut the f' up when the anthem is played. So if a college kid/adult doesn't do all of those things, I guess that's being disrespectful?

I cancelled my UCF season football tickets, the year after the undefeated season, when Tacko Fall and some of his teammates were goofing around during the anthem.
