The NFL and Disney/ESPN and the democrat party and the rest of the corrupt media support killing police officers.

I finally get it. NFL players have taught me to recognize personal biases and prejudices. I’m sure I will be a better person by giving a chance to those I’ve ignored in the past, who are quite often black or female.

When the players’ union tried to bring up conconcusions, I sided with the league. I loved the game, and without thinking, assumed the players just wanted more money.

When Roethlisberger was accussed of rape, I ignored his victim. I admired Ben’s play and liked his team and wouldn’t even consider that he may be a rapist. Never again will I let my bias for the NFL or a player cause me to ignore a victim.

When teams repeatedly welcomed back men who raped, assaulted, and abused women, killed dogs, and committed other crimes, I accepted that those players had “served their time” or “resoloved their issue”, or whatever other excuse the teams and league made. The league enabled additional crimes by their continued association, acceptance, and funding of criminals. And I enabled the league by not turning them off. If enough of us white males turn off the games when a team associates with criminals, we may be able to save a future assault victim (who is more often than not a black woman).

Unfortunately I’ve also developed a major character flaw in watching the players. I’ve seen players condemn all police as brutal racists based on the actions of a few bad cops who actually are racists. I’ve watched the players label whites as the cause of social problems - problems which indivdual white people did not cause and have no control over. From now on, if I happen to see a play on Sundays, instead of 22 talented inviduals doing their job, I’ll see 22 men who rape and abuse women, kill animals, and drive drunk. The label “National Felons Leauge” is quite appropriate to me now. Maybe there are a few who aren’t felons - maybe even most of them are not guilty. But their inactions in stopping felonies, and continued assciation with those who are criminals make them all guitly. Maybe this is just a subconscious coping mechanism I’ve developed to help me turn off the game. But I’ll go with the excuse that teams have really wanted to present an image of “team unity” and now I’m seeing it, so it’s not a personal flaw I need to fix.

Occasionally, you run into people who are intelligent enough to walk and talk and that’s about it. They don’t learn from example, observation or personal experience. There is something so divergent about their world view that it is difficult for them to get along with the world around them. Most of the time, whatever is different about the way they see the world is never seen by the rest of us and we get along, in our brief encounters with them, just fine. I knew someone who thought certain numbers held magical powers. As long as you stayed away from certain topics that triggered his spitting numerical mania you could interact with him like any normal person. I suspect, however, he’d have been difficult to employ.

One problem for Kaepernick is that he is constantly exposed to us and whatever his deviation from what the rest of us see as reality is on constant display. Unlike the numerologist, there is no opportunity for him to avoid the topic and just do a job. Like the numerologist, his craziness makes him unemployable. He is too harmful to have representing your brand and that is why he hasn’t been hired. I am certain the team owners would like for this flag/knee controversy to please just go away. Like two-year-olds who have discovered shouting curse words gets them adult attention, it won’t without severe punishment. A two year old you can slap on the bottom and say “no.” I don’t know what you can do with a multimillionaire 210 pound 28 year old two-year-old.
