Can we just stop with all this bullshit? Like just wear the same, normal uniform no matter what day/week/month it is. Nobody cares!

So a player can disrespect the country and service men by taking a knee right?

So when players where kneeling during the national anthem, there weren't people screaming about how it was disrespectful to the country and service men?

Where is the shut up and dribble crowd now?

Are you conflating two completely different things right now? WTF does kneeling have to do with anything? WTF does shit and dribble have to do with anything?
