his time jacksonville went so well lol

 

I do think if we go to the bank for a FA WR it's Curtis Samuel. But having ARob back sure would be fun too

 

Yeah, whole thing was just awkward. He was supposed to stand in the tunnel, but took a few steps out (I presume to see the flag), and got captured in a bunch of photos. If memory serves, none of the Steelers had any big issue with him after it.

 

I don't care if anyone does or doesn't kneel. I care how somebody reacts to the kneeling.

 

I'm also not gonna knock an Army Ranger who says "I always stand for the flag" because he actually has a structure that is different than people playing politics with "sTanD fOr 'mUriCA!"

 

Steelers Alejandro Villanueva Wears Military Veteran's Name On Helmet, Covering Antwon Rose Jr.

There was this too

 

Alwyn Cashe is a black hero at the very least.

Side note, that Antwon Rose story was bonkers. idk if we ever discussed it here but it's pretty much the best current example of "Even if you DO something wrong, the police do not have a right to MURDER a black man"

 

And there was a big push to get him the Medal of Honor. Also:

 

Which further illustrates the point that Villanueva at least made his intentions known and didn't shock the world with it.

 

The nameplate gesture and all the other things the players and NFL were doing was about racially motivated murders. Weird to make it about something else.

 

100000%. But it being a weird move does not make him a bad person / Trumper

 

Also, even if he is, hes not doing Pouncey-style MAGA stuff.

 

Isn’t Jacksonville a military town? That’s all I had meant to imply by it since Al is a former Army Ranger.

he’s been mostly a standup guy the whole time he’s been here with some misconstrued stories.

 

Jacksonville is a Navy town*

 

guess he won’t be winning a ring!

 

Titan up

 

Bills

 

No titans

 

I want him to go to the Bills so the Patriots can slap him around some more.

 

JJ Watt and the Bills Mafia charity combo might well cure cancer with the money they raise
