The letter, which, authored by sports editor Dave Zirin and signed by the likes of political activist Angela Davis and athlete/activist John Carlos, among others, urged the players to "consider the political ramifications of a propaganda trip organized by the Israeli government that aims to prevent players from seeing the experience of Palestinians living under military occupation."
You dumb ignorant SOB. Angela Davis is a Communist. In her perfect world people like you playing a kids game for a living would not be signing $34 million dollar contracts.

He’s a social justice warrior dolt. Won’t shut up about it, either. He’s most likely quite likeminded with the commie/socialist crowd. As stated above, he is clearly a bigot and racist. So is his brother on the Pats.

I saw a picture recently of anti-Trump protesters.
Front and center was the requisite mass-printed "rev-com" anti American garbage.
They tried to hide the same mass-printed "Divest from Israel" sign behind the front one, but it was clearly visible.
Do these leftist, anti-American, anti-Semites not realize that we know EXACTLY who they *really* are?
Michael Bennett is a genuine creep.

What a challenge it will be as sports heros and announcers grow increasingly politically active, joining with the beast system to pound on proper law and righteous ways. Too many USAians will continue to spend their time and money supporting them anyway, having nothing better to do with their time.
Welcome to Roman lifestyle.

“athlete/activist John Carlos, “
I believe that US sprinter John Carlos was one of the idiot black-power saluters at 1968 Olympic games...

I suggest that Bennet go to Sderot to experience the "REAL" "pali experience," i.e. rockets.

Fined by the NFL for a gyrating ‘thrusting’ dance move on the field last season he later came up with this response: “2 pumps get’s ya a baby...3 pumps get’s ya a fine”. (So, just ‘2 pumps’ and it is over? Ciggy time then for Bennett? What a loser chump!)

Does his NFL contract require him to go to Israel?
Does his NFL contract require him to stand during the national anthem ?
