They say theres a first time for everything. Well, today is a first for me.
Im one of those social freaks who isnt into big sports; dont watch the games, dont follow any players, dont put team logos on my car, and dont buy their gear (although I did once buy a team shirt from Goodwill for a white elephant gift exchange). That record was cracked today.
For the first time in my life, I bought a brand new sports team shirt. Its red, it has a big number 7, and the name on the back is Kaepernik. Ill wear it proudly. Id kneel with him if my old knees would let me, so Ill stand with him instead.
Its also been said that change is the only permanence. But dont be looking for me to make a habit of the sports thing, aint gonna happen.

On the other hand what if the owners did fire any that knelt? TOO FUNNY. The whole house of cards would fall in seconds.
