Steelers LB Vince Williams to Fans Who Burned Their Jerseys: ‘If You Burned Your S**t, Don’t Buy It Back’
http://www.breitbart.com/sports/2017/10/04/steelers-linebacker-vince-williams-fans-burned-jersey-if-burned-dont-buy-back/4 Oct 2017

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Vince Williams doesn’t care if fans don’t like players protesting the national anthem. In fact, he told fans who burned their Steelers gear, not to bother coming back.
During the Steelers Week 3 game against the Chicago Bears at the end of September, the team seriously botched its response to President Donald Trump’s criticism of the NFL for continuing to allow the national anthem protests.

Whatever message the team ultimately meant to convey seemed to get lost in the controversy it spawned. The Steelers had vowed to stay in the locker room during the playing of the nation’s song, but one player, offensive tackle Alejandro Villanueva, came out on the field, anyway, hand over heart in respect for country and flag.

Villanueva’s move infuriated coach Mike Tomlin and the next day Tomlin forced the player to come out and apologize for “unintentionally” taking the field to honor the anthem and for “embarrassing” the team....

GOOD!

Buying it back only helps support them.

No problem, Vince. My spare cash goes to Zag and Coppell Cowboys gear.

When will these knuckle dragging neanderthals realize they need the fans a heck of a lot more than the fans need the NFL?

The NFL has bested MLB as most popular sport in the US for 33 years.

The NFL is now making a valiant effort to return to the no, 2 spot.

When their salaries get cut. But that won't happen until the TV contracts run out, if at all.

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
They don't even seem to care. We hate whites, so burn it all down. When the league collapses, we'll go back to the ghetto and burn it down too.

There's no reasoning with the BLM crowd. It's just hate whitey, kill whitey, enslave whitey, make whitey into second class citizens, by any means necessary.

Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

Not me...I'm pretty good quoting from Blazing Saddles and Animal House, though.

I have limited funds to spend on sporting events.  Due to the NFL players taking a knee, I will be buying hockey tickets instead.
