But is Flacco elite?

Sitting during the national anthem on the 15th anniversary of 9/11 does not strike me as particularly smart. But we are talking about professional athletes so brains are at a minimum.

Eh, I'm sure when the big moment comes the Seahawks will probably pass.

it is the 15th anniversary of the September 11th attacks on New York and Washington

“What a bunch of losers.”

If only Steve Jobs had loved chemo, we could ask him.

if you choose to play for team USA, choosing to represent your country, you’re a raging hypocrite and likely scumbag if you don’t stand.

It’s actually a professional term. Doctor’s are doctor’s; chefs are chefs; presidents are presidents; coaches are failures in the booth; officers are officers... etc.

Close, it’s almost burfict.

I appreciate the sentiment, but that is absolutely not how the RICO act works. It’s not what it’s for, it’s not how it’s used and it’s not even applicable in civil court. There is no such thing as suing under the RICO act.

Where is this outrage when conservatives get fired left and right for not sticking to the liberal narrative? Where is the outrage when people get fired for no believing a man is a woman? Or when people decide not to bake a cake for a gay couple?

Jesus Christ, do you think “law enforcement” is a human being? First name law last name enforcement? Because that’s the only rational explanation for you trading millions of police officers like a monolithic entity.

I don’t think you know what the word threatened means. What they’re doing is choosing not to protect people who spit on them and vilify them.

They’re doing everyone a favor. All those evil cops have been suppressing black 49ers players and fans for years. Now the whole stadium will be free of their tyrannical oppression. Thank God.

I guess that’s fair.

I assume you realize providing security at NFL games is in no way part of their “tax payer money” salary or “protecting citizens.” That’s a secondary non-government job that police offer to provide. In that case, they’re paid by the NFL, and just like at your job—they have every right to walk away. Again, I assume you…

Sooooooooo many people saying “fuck the popo” etc.... Your blanket condemnation serves as a childish response to this. Seriously, grow the fuck up and put on your big boy and big girl pants and realize that 98 percent of these people are good people, working diligently to get rid of the shitbags you don’t want in your…

I’m sure you don’t get it. I’d love to see who you call when all police decide to stop defending the people that decide they don’t need them.

So it’s OK for Kaepernick to exercise his right to complain, but not for a group of people that secure him. Deadspin, in the words of your infamous tweet, Go fuck yourselves.

Definitely the role of the Union to squash lucrative overtime opportunities for its members.
