    Lol nah bro. I just have different viewpoints from the TTR masses, that's all. Don't mean that we can't converse though. I contribute somewhere on here almost daily. I just sometimes slip through the cracks, don't ya know it.

    Being an entertainer is not your typical 9-5, reason being, it's the fans and consumers, not the owners, who truly decide who has a job. Sorry man, their world is different than ours. If it sounds like a double standard, it's because it is. It's the way it goes. Many folks don't like it, but it's the way it is.

    Players are traded and fired everyday based on their performance. Sorry. As much as I normally agree with you. Can't here. They may be celebraties. They are not entertainers. Managers and head coaches make almost the same money. It's why some coaches said that they would bench players if they protessed during a game. Lots of NFL contracts are performance based. Sitting on the bench costs money.

    Star players make wayyyyyyyyy more money than a coach does, even some 2nd tier players make more than a coach...have you seen what contracts have ballooned too lately, particularly in NFL, NBA, MLB? If it's a star player, no coach is going to bench that player. The coach will be fired first...coaches do not have the power they used to. Fans don't pay to see the coach bro. If Kaep was really a hall of fame caliber player, and the 49ers were super bowl contenders annually, he'd still be playing. Fans talk a nice game but if their team is winning, those thoughts go by the wayside. I said it earlier, the owners of these entities favorite color is green, and those names will draw them lots of it.

    You make it sound like being a patriot is a bad thing.....hard to fathom that.

    Seriously doubt you ever wore a uniform in defense of our country, otherwise I doubt you'd use "patriotic" as a bad thing,,,,,those of us that did have every right to expect those that didn't serve to at least "appreciate" the gift of freedom you have at no expense.

    All anti vexers need to stand firm, we are right there with them regardless of the outcome. My wife has a job that is doing the same as tyson. We are standing firm, thick or thin. I have an insider with tyson that said yesterday one of the workers that claimed religious exemption was laid off immediately. This is going to be ugly as far as lawsuits, if enough people stand their ground, which i believe the majority of anti-vaxers will, it could go one, or two ways. Good, or bad.

    Being a patriot isn't a bad thing in the least. Being a "patriot" however is. I wrote it like that deliberately because there is a difference in my view. I could get into that, but that won't be a conversation. It'll be a crucifixion. I certainly appreciate our freedoms. I certainly have mad respect for the military. I think it's good that there are patriotic people that love their country, quite frankly. I don't always feel like certain "patriots" respect every other American that doesn't think or act like them. Those are patriots I can't really vibe with. It seems like there can only be one way to be American and heaven forbid if you go against it. I want to be clear, this is not an indictment on you or anyone on here because I don't know any of you personally, just as internet personalities. I think patriotism goes so much farther than fighting for freedoms, paying respect to the military, and standing for the anthem. I think it's also respecting and listening to other Americans, regardless of what line you tow, or where your background is. It's a diverse country that's becoming more diverse, and more culturally open. I think we all do a lousy job of listening to fellow Americans that are outside of our personal space or interests. We just judge. Anyway, pardon that soap box. Sometimes my thoughts just flow like the Missouri River lol
