People follow sports for an escape. Now we have to hear commentators talk politics after the latest kneel session. Our sports sites look like yahoo news or MSNBC.
Yes. Before Mr Trump interjected himself into the situation I just kinda ignored the kneeling. I don't think it's appropriate, but it doesn't ruffle my feathers like it does for some. The flood gates opened after that rally, and it was a news story.... Not a sports news story, a national news story. I'm not being partisan or political for my disdain for this issue either. I feel the president has bigger fish to fry than what some twenty somethings are doing on a football field. I felt the same way when Congress was meddling on steroids in baseball a decade or so ago. There are real problems in this country, and kneeling isn't one of them. Now it's harder to get away from those problems, and just watch a sporting event.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
