If ALL 70% of the Bruthas decided that they would NOT step on the field until this matter, along with the coaching and ownership disparity, is addressed we’d see systemic change before season’s end!!!
What BS! This is outrageous!!! Systemic racism is disgusting. The NFL is GREEDY and needs to be dealt with. They won’t even take care of their own black and brown players. Football should be boycotted.
WTF
Compensate these players! Come on bro! You're the NFL, it's not like y'all don't have money!
Live by the sword , die by the sword . When your on top of the world and getting paid a ton , its great but you have to take the consequences through your life.
Blacks bring so much money to the NFL…. I think NFL players should protest ðŸ¤â€
Thought the blacks want race to be a factor in everything but I guess when it doesn’t benefit them then it’s racist again
Wait wait these guys choose to play correct? Most Make millions, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars to play a game for 6 months a year. And they receive a large pension if they work 5 years, what about the coal miners, steel workers, utility workers, our veterans??
I really love the game of football! But that is not the problem! It’s the people who run these organizations that are problem!
Race hustlin as usual
Modern Day Eugenicist.
The NFL has hired all the white women into management levels, but even though black players make up 70% of the team, they are not placed in management spots. There is a rumor that the NFL saves the Quarterback spot mainly for a white player because of the fame and that they don't believe the black player is smart enough. Many of these owners are OLD 90 yr old men with that SLAVE/MASTER mentality.
The NFL says that they are now OK with kneeling to protest. For me, that means that the NFL is listening to racial injustice. So back the hell up and listen to THIS problem. You are either in or out. Rhere is no in between.
CrybabyðŸ˜â€
Ever who decided to run this story is an epic dolt! These guys make millions, and you think people struggle to make ends meat even cares?
It's not just the NFL but the Veterans Administration.
I have PTSD, tinnitus, and tension headaches from combat in Iraq and Afghanistan! I hope they all go broke!
These players are overpaid anyway; I have no sympathy for them at all, especially this guy! I served four tours in Iraq, and I gave all kinds of problems!
This is critical race theory at its finest. I will never watch this sport again or buy any of their merchandise! I hope they go broke for being woke!
this is always the case, Denial!!
Players need to sign waivers to play the game.
In every walk of life in America their is racism. Work, Kids Schools, In Government, in Entertainment and Media
One of my Dr is racist too
Sounds like CTE.
Let's see what comes of this if anything.
Reminds me of when I was a kid in the 60s I was told by whites that I could never be as smart as a white man.
Im a IT ENG now. I never believed that as you can see.
its time to make professional sports worth $Bs capitalist again…no more public $ financing the lifestyle of billionaires with taxpayer bought socialism cathedrals of sport
I mean, we all know that racism exists, but you're not supposed to list racism ON AN OFFICIAL MEDICAL FORM! 🤦ðŸÂ¿â€Â♂ï¸Â
This is completely horrible. Glory and guts are the ones that the NFL and players needed more than ever.
I deduct the #NFL #blackballing of #kaepernick for peaceful protest was part of its #RaceNorming practices. This sounds like the #TheBellCurve to me! Oh, Happy Black History Month. https://youtu.be/7JjniiNsv9o
What the ** does the colour of anyone's skin have to do with head trauma?
You’ve got to be kidding me! I will not watch another nfl game as long as this is going on!
Pathetic anti-white racism
More anti-white racism what a suprise
NFL needs to be disbanded!
All I hear is mush mouth from the fat Albert show
We need universal healthcare so eugenics like this doesn't happen
What do race have to do with head injuries? This is so wrong and wicked on every level!
The NFL needs to answer for this!
Wtf lol 😂 I give up on this world we are all fucked
Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.
“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted".
(Matthew 23 NIV)
You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything, in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
"If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from Heaven, will forgive their sins, and will heal their land."
And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

These are the teachings,
The Righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ our God.
REPENT, and start doing what is right.
If you abide my teachings, you are really my disciples; then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
A time is coming and has now come, that the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and Truth. God is Spirit, so his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and Truth; they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
In the New Heaven and New Earth,
only Righteousness dwells.
May the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ our God be with you all.
This is awful! It needs to get more coverage.
? Huh? Wtf?
That's why the NFL was trying to be so woke because they're really really guilty
ABC just stirring up the idiots again…
One of the myriad reasons I will forever hate football
ABC criticizes companies who don't hire an equal number of black people (even though blacks are only 13% of the US population)… what about the NFL ? 80% of players are black. Why isn't that "racist" ?
This makes my heart and head want to explode!!!are we STILL this ignorant !???
Ok, racism is actually becoming really childish right now. No cap
Here we go again with racist calling out you got paid dearly to play a sports you knew damn well when you beat your head you're going to get her it is no different than people and race cars that get severe crashes you get paid to do a sports shut your mouth then go on
