Dallas player Reggie Cannon said that players did not originally want a national anthem, then decided to kneel during the national anthem and were disappointed when fans booed and chanted USA, USA. He said the players had cleared this with the team and league beforehand.
I guess they forgot to check with the people actually paying the bills.

Seems like it would make more of a statement if the fans just didn't show up anymore.

So this player feels "disgusted" that others expressed their opinion, which is not in line with his opinion? Some people are so moronic it's not even funny.
Hey genius! Did you ever think that maybe they feel disgusted which is why they are booing you.?

Dallas FC lost. In more ways than one.

The can go eff themselves. We have to demonstrate our values. The same can be said for the fans. Don't like it? Maybe you should try to understand them.

Soccer has the most visible National team of all the sports. Most of the fans begin as fans of the US Men's team. I would expect them to be OVERLY patriotic.

This stadium ain't in LA.

Northern Collin County, Texas.

Even the people up there not from America love America.

That seems to be the new trend.
Even Jerry Jones is wavering.

Dear pro player,

Maybe people disagree with the message? Is that not okay?

Maybe people think you are choosing BLM, Inc. over the USA and disagree with the choice. Is that not okay?

Maybe the fans in the stands are making their voices heard just as you are making your voice heard. Is that not okay?

I love the Mexican people but I loathe the Mexican national soccer team. Like tu level of loathing. I guess I'm selectively jingoistic when it comes to USMNT matches.

Amazing that the reporter didn't ask the blatantly obvious follow up question to his comment that he "loved the team and he loved the fans."

Well Reggie, do you love your country?

It's just gotten old. So old that it's nothing but disrespect. You've been heard. We get it.

If you kneel, I'm not learning anything new. I'm not "waking up" any more than I already have. I'm not going to be moved by "just one more kneeler."

Quit it, get on with your job and start a shelter or do something that actually backs up your virtue signaling.

Why actually DO anything, when you get the "woke" points for slacktivism/virtue signaling?

Cannon has been linked with a move to Europe. So if these fans disgust him, he ain't seen nothing yet.

What a flipping joke. Cannon is the epitome of a privileged child who has literally never known oppression of any sort.

From an ESPN bio on him:
Quote:
To say that Cannon's family is accomplished is an understatement. This is a family driven first by their faith. After that comes academics.

His parents both went to Brown, his mother is a urologist, and his father is a radiologist. Then there is his stepfather, who played college football at Dartmouth. One of Cannon's sisters is an attorney, and one of his brothers is a pilot. Then there is his grandfather, the man who helped convince him to accept the contract offer from Dallas.

His grandfather, coincidentally, is Nobel Prize winner Dr. Warren Washington. A senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, Washington has published more than 150 articles during his professional career and in 2010 was awarded the National Medal of Science by President Barack Obama. It was an unusual situation for Cannon, who was guided and pushed academically his whole life. Here he was, seeking advice from his Ivy League-educated parents as well as his grandfather, who is one of the most accomplished scientists and minds in the world.

boy he's from the hood, isn't he?

What a clown. YOU want to bring politics into your sport, you want to express your feelings...and God forbid the fans do the same.

Typical liberals. They want all their rights, freedom of expression, etc. But people on the other side of issues...you must be silenced.
