Colin Kaepernick just named Face of Nike's 30th anniversary of "Just Do It" campaign. Former quarterback of San Francisco 49ers who started the national anthem kneeling issue.
By default, the kneeling NFL players controversy is a civil rights and/or racial issue.
That's what the protest is about.
Since the Rules say:
The following topics are BANNED on this Board: Abortion
Religion
Racial issues
Gay rights/homosexuality
General LEO bashing
Political Discussion and Comment Do NOT participate in discussion of banned topics.
we are done with any discussion of the kneeling players, Kaepernick, and the Nike spokesperson contract.
Period.
If you must discuss any or all of those, I'd suggest taking it to a tennis shoe or football board.
