Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long thoughts on Trump.

[Swede]

Terry Bradshaw - "This is America. If our country stands for anything, folks, it's freedom. People died for that freedom. I'm not sure if our President understands those rights. . That every American has the right to speak out also to protest. Believe me, these athletes do love this great country of ours. Personally, I think our President should concentrate on North Korea and healthcare rather than ripping into athletes and the NFL," he said.

Howie Long - "Kneeling or sitting for the anthem is not something I would choose to do, but I fully support the right to do it. That being said, what keeps getting lost in the form of the protest is the message of inequality. Put in a perspective, as a white father having raised three boys, there were a million things to worry about on a daily basis, but it's impossible for me truly understand the challenges an African-American father faces at every turn while raising his children," he said.

"But in a league that is comprised of 70 percent African-American players, if you're a white player in an NFL locker room, that puts you in a unique position to try and better understand those struggles and subsequently as we've seen, show your support for your teammates in your own way. Understanding starts with a dialogue and the most important part of dialogue is to listen."

21. I grew up in the Pittsburgh area and I've been a fan of Bradshaw since the 70s

I grew up watching Terry win Super Bowls throwing the ball to Swann and Stallworth and handing off to Franco and Rocky.

I always knew he was a stubborn blockhead, but I had the impression he was a decent person. I'm really proud of him publicly leaving the republican party.
