[quote=MtnBoomer]Keep in mind that these guys all have contracts that spell out the reasons they can be fired. While I don't like their actions, it is an expression of free speech, which we all support - right?
There's a big difference between supporting their right to free speech, and having to like what they do. I have the right to call them a piece of schit too, which I will. Also, let's not forget, they are getting paid in their contract to PLAY FOOTBALL, not to be political activists. And while they are on that football field, they are employees. It would be a totally different story if they complained off the field on their own time. If you saw a cop, on duty, during the national anthem, flipping the bird to the flag, would you make the argument that it is free speech and they couldn't do anything about it?
