Gee California now there is a shocker I think that that is where Colin Kaepernick was from as well wasn't it?

ImLogicallyRight

We paid their way there. They dishonored their commitment to the team and America. They should have to pay their way back and never be allowed to compete for America again.

Sorry hon, not going to subscribe to the LA times just to read an article, can you possibly post the content of the article along with the "citing link", so those of us like minded don't have to spend money to see it? I did click the link and it brought me immediatly to a subscribe page, when I clicked the "home" button, couldn't find this article while scrolling through the front page of articles n op eds ..although I will say that I'm not surprised more of these athletic ass clowns are kneeling and disrespecting this country's f**g and what it represents as well as the Anthem. These ass clowns are always "blasting Trump" nothin new there...I guess they feel superior bc they make more a year than the President, especially since Trump Doesn't take a salary..so they can disrespect not just Trump but the Office of President!

I was thinking they should get kicked off the team and not be allowed to compete, but making them pay their own way back home, too, is a grand idea! Make an example of them. No exceptions. That is the only way to stop it. Or, even better, they should just stay where they are and save themselves some money. Am tired of young athletes using the global stage to disrespect this country.

"American Gold Medalists Kneel, Raise Fist During National Anthem, Face Punishment

Two Americans who won gold medals at the Pan American Games and knelt or raised a fist during the national anthem could face punishment because they didn’t adhere to the terms they committed to, the governing body said.

“Every athlete competing at the 2019 Pan American Games commits to terms of eligibility, including to refrain from demonstrations that are political in nature,” Mark Jones, the vice president of communications for U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Committee [USOPC], told ESPN in a statement on Aug. 11.

“In these cases, the athletes didn’t adhere to the commitment they made to the organizing committee and the USOPC. We respect their rights to express their viewpoints, but we are disappointed that they chose not to honor their commitment. Our leadership are reviewing what consequences may result.”

Race Imboden, 26, knelt as the national anthem played during the medal ceremony on Friday after his team won gold in the team foil event. His teammates remained standing while the Brazilian team saluted and the Canadian team stood straight.

“We must call for change. This week I am honored to represent Team USA at the Pan Am Games, taking home Gold and Bronze. My p***e, however, has been cut short by the multiple shortcomings of the country I hold so dear to my heart,” he said in a statement on Twitter."
