pittsburgh to not stand or enter the field

Karma will hopefully catch up to every single one of those kneeling pieces of **** .

On Sunday, the national anthem protests continued, but one team took it to a whole new level that we've never seen before and this time, it wasn't even during the national anthem.

Before the kickoff of the New Orleans Saints versus the Detroit Lions game, and even before the presentation of the American flag, several Saints players took a knee. But their timing is what is really turning heads.

The players took a knee during a moment of silence for a murdered police officer named Marcus McNeil, who was a father of two and was slain while on duty just two days prior to the game...

Because of the kneeling players, fans rained down boo's on the players during the moment of silence, making it not very silent at all and ruining the tribute.

I agree, booing during a moment of silence is disgusting.

I forgot, taking a knee for a fallen officer is disrespectful? Isn't that the most respectful? They then stood for the anthem. It's becoming very clear this movement has nothing to do with the anthem and everything with race.
