Only an alt righter would consider 538 a liberal blog. But then again anyone who doesn’t parrot Fox News is either a liberal or a RINO. What’s your point. I disapprove of a lot of things. But I wouldn’t make many of them my cause celebre.
I think you're right. Tillman would have sided with the take a knee crowd. He seemed like he was pretty open minded about things. I don't think he'd take a knee, but I don't think he'd condemn it either. I just think its a bad idea on the NKE BOD's part to jump in a highly controversial political fray. The good news is they'll certainly get a lot of free press. We'll see what happens... interesting to say the least.
Oh yeah this is going to end well. Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Tweets Support for Colin Kaepernick
Nike defended Serena at the French open as well. So there might be more than what we see (for example they could be telling their athletes “we got your back”).
Already boycotting NIKE since, they are one of the biggest sponsors of the NFL! No reason to buy their products as there are other better choices. Will never support these Anti-American businesses doing business in the US! They can all go bankrupt and will not be missed!
Most likely Crappernack stands for the Iranian National Anthem too. So, there. Crappernack and Mahcameljad will be getting room together out at the airport Holiday Inn before long.
