Granted Roethlisberger was never charged.1 Roethlisberger plays for the steelers, whom the NFL & espn regularly sucks their balls, so of course nothing happens there.
Or how about a guy like Mixon punching a girl? Was that worse than what Kaepernick did? Mixon gets a 2nd change.
Or how about guys who get suspended for PED's or drugs? They get 2nd chances.
Or Adam Jones? He's gotten about 5 2nd chances.
I mean people want freedom of speech in the US until someone does something they don't like.
Do I agree with Kaepernick? No. Do I think he's a huge idiot? Yes. Do I think what he did deserves banishment from the NFL. No. There are guys playing who have done far worse.
2 Mixon was a KID, who made a mistake, and has done nothing since then.
3 PEDS or drugs? They should get a second chance, hopefully they learn.
4 Adam Jones? I have no excuse, except he plays for the Bengals, and he's pretty good.
5 kap is grown, made a bad choice, continued to stand by it just to stir controversy, the ultimate statement of "I'm more important than my teammates and the organization that allows me to make a living." Well this country that allows him to be a dumbass, also has the right to not want to be associated with said dumbass. Also allows me the right to not care or have to hear his whining.
6 You dont like America, or how we do things, no one has ever said you cant leave.
When I die, I will get to shake Mr. Paul Browns hand and hear him say "Damn, you never stopped believing, did you?"
