    Drew Bree’s Apology no guts

    If their was ever a sure bet in this world it was yesterday if someone would have offered me a wager if Drew would apologize for his comments I would have bet my sons life on it that he would. What a spineless asshole that he can’t stick by his true feelings just to fit in with the rest of the dumbass celebrities and sports figures that have no morals in this world. Disgraceful and I hope this bum continues chocking in the playoffs like he has his whole damn career.

    Drew Brees' apology...

    I would like to apologize to my friends, teammates, the City of New Orleans, the black community, NFL community and anyone I hurt with my comments yesterday. In speaking with some of you, it breaks my heart to know the pain I have caused.

    In an attempt to talk about respect, unity, and solidarity centered around the American flag and the national anthem, I made comments that were insensitive and completely missed the mark on the issues we are facing right now as a country. They lacked awareness and any type of compassion or empathy. Instead, those words have become divisive and hurtful and have misled people into believing that somehow I am an enemy. This could not be further from the truth, and is not an accurate reflection of my heart or my character.


    This is where I stand:


    I stand with the black community in the fight against systemic racial injustice and police brutality and support the creation of real policy change that will make a difference.

    I condemn the years of oppression that have taken place throughout our black communities and still exists today.


    I acknowledge that we as Americans, including myself, have not done enough to fight for that equality or to truly understand the struggles and plight of the black community.


    I recognize that I am part of the solution and can be a leader for the black community in this movement.


    I will never know what it’s like to be a black man or raise black children in America but I will work every day to put myself in those shoes and fight for what is right.

    I have ALWAYS been an ally, never an enemy.

    I am sick about the way my comments were perceived yesterday, but I take full responsibility and accountability. I recognize that I should do less talking and more listening...and when the black community is talking about their pain, we all need to listen.


    For that, I am very sorry and I ask your forgiveness.

    Very disappointed to see anyone apologize for not wanting to disrespect the AMERICAN FLAG or Anthem. Drew Bres you suck!! You lack a back bone..

    I would never apologize for that.. I'd quit the National Football League before doing that..

    Agreed clutchcutt, was thinking yesterday that Brees will have to come out with an "apology"..

    Noone can have an opinion anymore unless it fits the BLM narrative.

    Taking a knee is not disrespecting the flag. He should apologize because he was being ignorant to the reasons why people were taking a knee. At least if he’s apologizing it means he has the ability to understand others and grow which is more than I can say for a lot of people who are so stuck in their ways that they have zero ability to listen which is the true problem going on with our society.
    If anything taking a knee should represent wanting to create unity with all races in our society. I’m not sure if you will understand though because like a few on this site you stay stubborn and don’t ever open yourself up to others views or try to understand them

    What Brees should have said was these guys should stop having side hoes, stop spending their money on cars and gold chains and take care of their damn families because being rich and famous is great but if you don't use your wealth and status to teach other black/african-americans the way then they'll still be having eight baby mommas and broke once they retire.

    Or take the time to understand what is going on and understand why people are mad before you spout off thoughts hidden away behind your rich bubble. This is something you could learn to do as well minus the rich bubble.

    ^ Should never take a knee during the National Anthem, should always stand tall and at attention and put your hand on your heart.. That's respecting the America I know and for all the soldiers that fought and died for the Country we all enjoy today. That's American tradition and being American!!!.

    Just because many black people and black athletes now want to kneel during the American National Anthem doesn't mean we Americans all have to and comply and when we don't then have to apologize for not wanting to do that afterwards.

    I'm disgusted Drew apologized and is now walking back his comments.. That's the way I see it.

    No one is asking you to kneel but they are asking you to at least understand why they are kneeling and that it doesn’t have anything to do with disrespecting the flag or soldiers. Do you stand in your living room at home when the national anthem plays for all sporting events? Do you think everyone does that who supports your view? If you walk away and get chips or beer In your house are you disrespecting the soldiers?

    This is where you are wrong, for many Americans, white Americans, veterans of war we see kneeling during the National Anthem as disrespecting the Flag and Country..

    It goes both ways..

    I get it.. If blacks want to kneel then go ahead I can't stop them. When Drew Bres said he doesn't want to kneel and catches MAJOR heat from his black players and then has to apologize for it, that's kinda weak and disturbing to see..

    Drew Bres should not have to apologize for his views about this or get bullied because of them...

    Apology doesn't matter.

    Same teammates will still keep an eye on what he does and says.
    Fans that disagreed with him will say he said it just to save face and doesn't mean it.
    Original supporters will look at his as a wimp who cowered to pressure instead of his convictions.

    He's all alone.

    I never heard Colin Kappernick apologize once for hurting people when he first took a knee during the National Anthem which offended half the Country.

    In Brees own words...

    In an attempt to talk about respect, unity, and solidarity centered around the American flag and the national anthem, I made comments that were insensitive and completely missed the mark on the issues we are facing right now as a country. They lacked awareness and any type of compassion or empathy. Instead, those words have become divisive and hurtful and have misled people into believing that somehow I am an enemy. This could not be further from the truth, and is not an accurate reflection of my heart or my character.


    Now whichever of you fellas want to debate that man's own words or continue fighting about it, know this:

    You sound more ignorant with each post. YOU and your narrow-fixed mindset are the reason why you're sitting at home talking about using guns to protect your property..

    You're fighting to hold on to your idiotic mindset. Drew Brees just informed you that HE was wrong and YOU are wrong. He even enlightened you as to WHY you are wrong.

    Read the words numbnuts...

    If you were half as smart as you think you are, you would realize that Brees' apology was a bunch of BS that he said because he doesn't want to lose his $10 mil/yr. job. It has nothing to do with "enlightenment".

    The fact you think he meant what he said tells me you actually bought the apology. I'm not on any side as far as his comments for yesterday go. He ONLY apologized because of pressure.

    If he said what he said 15 days ago it would be a minor story. He in fact said the same thing in 2017 pretty much.

    Not too many NFL players were sticking up for Kap now all of the sudden they are acting like he was right all along. Pete Carroll made me laugh yesterday.

    Just get rid of the anthem if it's such a big deal.

    Disagree.

    Brees was very much enlightened.. Enlightened that his first statement left him as a man alone on an island...
    He was also enlightened that if he didn't apologize, he would fukk himself even worse than he already has..

    See, very enlightened..
