During the segment, an agent who was on said 97.1 is close to bringing a person of color on, I wonder who that is? Part of the segment was complaints that Rico Beard wasn't on the station so it could be him.
Rob Parker is a race baiter.
I agree I can't stand Rob Parker he is such a blowhard I wish FS1 would get rid of him as ESPN did. Wasn't a fan of the Detroit sports teams he was a homer for the New York sports teams.

Sports TV is a self correcting problem for me. I stopped watching ESPN when it turned into a soap opera and political message channel. Stopped watching NFL when they started insulting the flag (and the Ford family went out and did it with them).

Now I read they and the NBA are replacing jersey names with racial sayings and playing the Black National Anthem before games.

Good luck with that. I know my dollars won't hurt them, but I will not watch a game, either in person or on TV.

I just care about who wins or loses... they can beat off before the game if they like... I really don’t give a damn. Protest is what that flag represents by the way. The people who founded this country were the ultimate protestors and they tore shit up and were radicals In their day looking for a change... to think otherwise is naive. The conservatives at the time were the British loyalists.

Soldiers have fought and died for the people’s right to protest. It’s not even against the flag or the country. It’s just a symbolic gesture against racism. You must have it good if this makes your radar as a problem.

If they have their own national anthem, and it is different than yours, they are not in the same nation as you.

They just told you that. Believe them

There's a good quote from the movie Hoosiers that applies to all the protests during games:

"Look, mister, there's... two kinds of dumb.
A guy that gets naked and runs out in the
snow and barks at the moon, and, uh...
a guy who does the same thing
in my living room.
The first one don't matter, the second one
you're kinda forced to deal with."

Just replace the word "dumb" with the word "protest."

How many of these athletes have actually participated in the public protests, where no one could object to their behavior?

That you can even worry about this vs. finding food or water just to not die shows us how lucky we are to be here and what a wonderful place this is. As does allowing protests you don’t agree with but if it’s peaceful which this is then we have the obligation to allow it.

FOX has been caught editing photos together in the last few weeks of protests from several places to give the illusion something is happening somewhere it’s not and then when called on it it becomes “oh! Our mistake!”... suuuuurrrreeeee.... Their latest “error” is editing Trump out of a photo of him with Ghislaine Maxwell... if you believe their story you’re either dumb or well... dumb.

To think right wing outlets don’t alter images or completely distort sound bytes and take things way out of context is one of the funniest things I’ve heard in years...

That is a total bull shit story and has been proven to be a lie. They did not edit Trump out and, in fact, had an entire montage of photos of Maxwell with many world figures. Just because that montage DID NOT INCLUDE Trump, doesn’t mean they edited him out. But you can think whatever you want, sweetheart. The fact is CNN, MSNBC, ABC, AND CBS all manufacture bull shit stories on Trump and you fucking know it.
I’m not even a Trump supporter, but I do have ethical standards and the liberal media outlets, AKA: Mainstream Media, are nothing but a propaganda arm for the Democrat party.

Acting like there’s no manipulation or editing or out of context statements utilized by the right is naive at best and dishonest at worst.

What would be most interesting to know is why the incredible hostility towards me and the universe in general. Nobody did anything to you.
