It is in their right to protest, if they want to protest social issues that are happening they should be able too. They can create change because a lot of people look up to them.

I salute the players for standing up for their brothers who are being unjustly decimated by police. They certainly have the right! I applaud them!

Absolutely! It's their right, just like every other American citizen. I wish someone would hire Colin Kaepernick!! What a waste of talent and how chickens^&* of owners not to do so.

I read the no comments and what they are saying is complete bull yes they are paid to play sports but they are also people and last time I checked people are allowed to voice their opinions and could protest as long as they don't go overboard and start doing illegal crimes I don't see a problem.

Athletes have first amendment rights as much as anyone else! They are leaders and are looked up to by young people...They are role models and should take political positions.

I don't think protesting should get in the way of a game or a sports season. It gets too political.

Rick Herget

Ric Pruitt

Kimmy Wasatch

They are paid to play a game, And paid really high salaries They are athletes, not politicians and should not politicize sports.Just another example of pandering which prolongs unrest and violence..

Sport is entertainment. When it stops being entertaining, there is no longer any reason to watch.

I do not care about any athletes political ideals. They get paid huge sums tp play, so play, if you dont then I do not watcg.

Larry Ewart

Don't most people protesting social issues do so on their own time? I think it is very weak just because you have a forum.

Nancy

They can believe what they want. But to protest not to play when they get paid millions of dollars to do is ridiculous. Just makes more people not want to watch sports.

Kevin Johnson

Public land needs to have logging/thinning/brush management and close dispersed camping within 10 miles of Sisters/Bend, especially during summer months.

Gary Diefenderfer

First of all, that agent you had on was an absolute uninformed idiot. Where is the compassion. Weather the storm. What storm. It’s because the insurance companies are having to pay out after collecting billions of dollars. Boo Hoo, now we must pay. There is no fire here,
