    So people watching football again will be what unifies the nation?

    I think a meeting - a serious meeting and not a photo/video opp - would be a great thing. A serious discussion, in the Oval, of police violence against the African American community is long overdue

    Not me, my Raiders suck this year. I just hope they don't stink up Vegas next year.

    On a side note, did you hear about the former UT Vol MLB, AJ Johnson being found Not Guilty of the unfounded sex assault allegations and now signed with the Broncos, 3 years later? I thought it was relevant because of the Kavanaugh stuff.

    It was sad. He was UTs beast mode. Then a girl who was already sleeping with him on the side, accused him. Total BS.

    I feel your pain, we are trash. We have a 125mil QB and a 100 mil Coach, both are garbage.

    I am a Raiders fan til the end, but I also keep a side team. Right now, I am waiting on Roethlisberger to retire so my Astronaut Josh Dobbs can take over the Steelers. He is gonna light it up.

    It will be a war course.

    Warriors communicating with each other.

    I think a meeting would be great too.

    Not asking for a photo op.

    Racist supporter of NFL who boycotted Nike products goes out of business:

    http://www.newser.com/story/271293/nike-boycott-takes-down-long-running-sports-store.html


    '' A man's counter-protest to Colin Kaepernick's taking a knee is putting his sports store out of business. Stephen Martin, owner of Prime Time Sports in Colorado Springs, opted to drop all Nike gear after Nike debuted its 30th anniversary ad campaign featuring Kaepernick last fall. Now, he can no longer afford his lease at Chapel Hills Mall after 21 years in business. "Being a sports store without Nike is kind of like being a milk store without milk or a gas station without gas,"''


    Hopefully, the hard working employees will be able to find new jobs soon. As for the bigoted punk who engaged in that boycott, the hell with him.

    Well, if you suck as a QB, might as well sue yourself to prosperity instead, eh=) And his suckiness has NOTHING to do with his race, since being black is generally a massive benefit in the NFL. He sucked because his numbers sucked. Look, the former KC Chiefs RB, Kareem Hunt, who was "booted", pun intended, has already been signed with another team. Kick a woman and you'll still get paid. WHy? Becuase he's AWESOME!!! Just happened to be caught lightly kicking some chick when she was on the ground. But it was enough to can canned. Not a cool move. But hey, thats that. Kaep lost whatever it was that made him good his first couple years.

    Toss the ball. Run the ball. And shut up. No one wants to hear you speak. You're an athlete. Speak with your talent and make people happy. Your talent is NOT your mouth, until you retire and become an analyst or start calling games on NBC or ESPN. Otherwise, shut up and dance. No one cares what you have to say.

    Naw - this was a pure BS claim from the get-go.

    Kaep was briefly a good player, but lost it long ago.

    No one signed him because he was a sub-mediocre player who was ALSO a huge negative distraction with an insane GF.

    The NFL just doesn't want this particular headache - bad optics - so they threw a few million at him and Reid.

    But Kaep can now add extortionist and sellout to his long list of questionable qualifications...

    Another guy the right wing made a bigger deal than they should have been because they can't stand to just shut up and let people believe what they want to believe.

    I don't think that's it.

    He's a mediocre narcissist who chose to make a spectacle of himself on someone else's dime.

    But he got a big payday, so I guess he's happy...?

    By the proper use of all field-of-play metrics, Kaep was the second worst QB in the NFL in his last seasons.

    And beyond that, he was a disaster when not under/behind center - a PR nightmare.

    That's the truth coming from someone on the far left.

    according to the source above, he was more than average - thus, no reason not to sign him unless there was a conspiracy and no reason not to pay him MILLIONS if the allegation wasn't true
