Bought a new pair of Nike tennis shoes but I had to take them back. When the sales clerk asked me why I said "The shoes are fine but for some reason they make my feet hurt when I stand for the national anthem"

"Huckleberry Berry Finn" was a great novel. It should be read by everyone. However, it should not be allied to today's standards. One needs to possess the intellectual understanding of the time in which it was written.

What do they do after the 3-4 minute kneel?? Do they as a group or as individuals to shout from the rooftops about the importance of education. How an arrest record never looks good on a resume. About personal responsibility. What has been done in the offseason by them to alleviate the problems?
