    Apparently the 1st Amendment and free speech is reserved for conservatives in colleges and on social media but not athletes. And kudos to a second teammate supporting her...

    Interesting, I can't honestly think back to a time when this would have been an issue, particularly when you consider the kind of gear that comes out during Olympic years. But I also can't imagine a time when a shoe company would have signed an inactive athlete in a feud with the highest rated sports and overall product on television: can you imagine Charmin signing Jeff George for endorsements because they deal with assholes all day? I also can't think back to a time when any portion of white and middle- or southeastern-America was spiteful enough to nominate and elect someone like Donald Trump.

    Krapernick is still relevant? Nike should market his knee pads and move on from this clown but hey their loss.

    Wow, that doesn't sound very patriotic to me... maybe if the USWNT posed on tanks?

    Nike has to justify still paying Kaepernick so they announced that b.s.

    Unemployed Kaepernick needs a job... guess he was awarded head of the PC Police Department.
    Next up, the Declaration of Independence because, ya know, it was in the era of slavery.

    I was very surprised that he didn't tweet something about the Americans winning without Rapinoe
