Quote:I don't think it has anything to do with standing up for what he believes in OR disrespecting the country. He's trying to keep himself relevant and in the news. If his play can't do that then he's gonna rely on scandal to do it.


Stand up for what you believe in? That's cool. Be part of the change, don't just make empty protests.

Bingo! He needs to keep his name out there.


If he really wanted to raise awareness, do some charity work for the cause he is protesting about and promote the heck out of it.


Now he just makes me want to protest why modern day pro athletes are dumb as rocks


Also, is the "oppression of minorities" just a 2016 phenomenon? No? Then why didn't CK do this when his "brand" was still marketable? Maybe its been a while since CK got a phone call to do a Beats By Dre commercial, etc. and this is his way of saying: Hey guys, remember me?
