effective in creating significant change (whether you like it or not) in one week and by making one heartfelt, measurable and well written social media post than Colin Kaepernick has done in 2 years by kneeling. Just goes to show, drawing attention to yourself is not nearly as effective as drawing specific attention to a problem and proposing a specific resolution.

Even as quiet and understated Watson is at times, when he says something it carries weight. At least I know it does with me. He’s earned his platform. Hoping he continues to use it for good.

Any sleep over it but let me tell you the difference between you and I. I more often reply that I disagree with someone and have the balls to have that discussion, usually not even tding the post. It appears you are a little ########### that belongs over on FGF who tds and runs hiding behind your firewall and chosen weapon the keyboard. Grab a pair and disagree with me . . .

To winning a N.C., you feel the need to tear him down to feel better about yourself?

They could be even more effective and donate

We’d even change the names of Calhoun and Tillman to Watson and Hopkins Halls!
That’s how it works...

Don't blame Kap, we should have listen to him four years ago but sadly people were not ready.

I'm not blaming Kap, but the whole kneeling thing was never effective. When you have to go to great lengths to explain why you're doing what you're doing, perhaps you need to look at doing something else. All it did was bring attention to themselves and to the flag. It did nothing to solve or address the problems they wanted to address. In fact, it was a huge distraction from the problems they wanted to solve. If they had been more targeted in what they were doing, and more deliberate, and used the vast resources of their platforms - fame, name recognition, money, influence, etc - then change may have been made. But they insisted on making their protest in an extremely indirect way that ultimately did nothing productive. And looks like we'll be seeing more of it again this year in the NFL, MLS, FIFA, etc.
Even if I disagree with the intentions, I respect that some of these guys, like Nuke and DW, are using their platforms to try to make positive change. But the kneeling does nothing except confuse, anger and divide. DO SOMETHING specific. THAT is effective and respectable.

They couldn't have done it without Colin. He was the first

and he sacrificed and suffered greatly for his efforts.
I would imagine, if Nuk and Deshaun haven't made that point already, they will eventually.
All Americans owe Colin Kapernick a debt of gratitude for the courage to take an honest stand.
That is why courage is THE most important character trait.

I would suggest you take your hood off when you type.
It's gotta be hard to see out of those holes.
