I said it then and will say it now. Allowing Kapernicks antics has politicized sports.

After the Olympics in Mexico politics at medal presentations was banned. The Academy Awards banned making political statements at awards.

This stuff just happened again. Has all the rioting solved anything? Nope, made it worse.

I don't believe for 2 seconds that pro athletes can "stop racism".

Cancel culture has solved nothing and all the well meaning folks who "protest" and peacefully are simply virtue signalling as those protests have accomplished zip over decades even going back to the LA riots.

Go ahead and "fight" racism just keep it all out of sports.
