Most NFL players actually went to college, and some may have picked up a thing or two.... If they want to put their jobs at risk, I see that as a credible protest. I've lost my job protesting corruption more than once. I learned it's better to be self employed. Perhaps a better question is this: When propagandists say "Thank you for your service" to vets.... Do they mean it? (Most Vets I know in my life have been shafted by Uncle Sam at some point) What "Service" are we talking about?(some poor schmuck joining the military because he has few options in life and as a reward gets sent oversees to serve Wall St.'s greedy ambitions?) All one hears form announcers is paid propaganda from our military spouted by guys who will do and say anything they are told to keep their cushy jobs.
