Also I’m not kneeling for the flag and screw anybody who have a problem with that. My grandmother was a immigrant from the Carribean and age worked her ass off to bring 20 people over the right way. She had no money and educated herself to be a nurse. She living good now.

We so much emphasis on social justice right now, speaking your truth about NFL players kneeling during the national anthem is dangerous business for all involved.
But to be clear, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman Stephon Tuitt will be standing. Tuitt sent out this powerful tweet on Monday to let everyone know he is standing, why he’s doing it and how he feels about anyone who has am issue with it.
The Steelers have never had a player kneel during the anthem but with so much going on in the country right now it seems a foregone conclusion this will change this season. But don’t look for Tuitt to be one of them.
