“no reason” my ass.

Not as far as the drivers are concerned.

Gold Toyota Corollas relevant as this happened yesterday:

Side note- why is the NFL still non-profit?

Which branch of the military is the NFL?

I think it’s been made pretty clear through the fines of on-field displays on headbands or shoes, etc that the players do not have free speech under the CBA. Whether a President opens his yap has little to do with it other than his feelings were consistent with the owner’s and it would be coincidental at worst.

Why are football players governed by “military regs”? Ball players are not drafted into the military.

It’s burned out from all the left turns.

So I will use this as an opportunity to bring this up, it’s something that has been in my head for some time now. It really belongs on Deadspin, but I don’t think I am welcome there.

On a hot Sunday afternoon while Mr K is sitting by his pool with a cold brewski and the game on the set, does he jump to attention when the National anthem begins? Nah, I didn’t think so. Same as in every bar I’ve ever been in.

The man who filmed the video, who was driving for a car app at the time, says the guy in the truck was Embiid’s trainer.

Meh. He’s free to do what he wants, and his customers can decide what they want to do in return. But as it stands right now, many on the left are boycotting the NFL due to Kaepernick not having a job, and many on the right are boycotting because players are not standing for the anthem.

The answer to your question is yes, believe it or not, sometimes issues overlap into multiple categories. And you are correct. Everyone is within their right to be an asshole, none of any of this is about rights. His actions (rights he’s using) have reactions (people who disagree with him may want to know his opinions…

Yeah but on the flip side, this is Jalopnik. Any time there are politics involved, rights of opinion/speech only apply to 1 side of the argument. Everyone else is racist / bigot / supremacist / bad because they share the other opinion.

Is Jalopnik about cars or politics? The guy still has a right to not disagree with what other people say (I think?).

100%. Especially purple minivans and gold corollas.

Patrick’s busting ass to try and make this happen. Hell, half of us don’t have cable.

Good on him. Not a Hamilton fan but this would definitely make me change my mind. For all you thinking he’s protesting the anthem or the flag.... you’re clearly missing the point.

Every time i see this I cannot comprehend how in 2017 people can be this .... just... I don’t even have the words.
