There is a huge difference
Kaep did it at football games
Butker did it outside football
If Kaep wants to say things about cops killing black people - go for it outside football.
What happens outside football stays out of football (unless it is something that is just wrong).
Unfortunately, everybody has their own definition of what is "JUST" wrong.
That might be fine for you, but far too many folks still held to Kaep not saying anything even outside of football.
I’m all for keeping the extra stuff out… I just want consistency…
Kaep wasn't asked to speak before a game on his thoughts on current events.
BTW, I still don't get what the kicker said that was so bad. He basically talked about how not to look down on being a mother & homemaker. He basically said it was a high calling to embrace that role. He never said it was a bad thing to be a career woman.
He also mentioned, correctly so, that single parent households were a huge problem in this country and called out the absentee fathers on that issue.
Too many mis-characterized what he said and the nerve to call fir the Chiefs to cut him over his beliefs were absurd.
Kaep doesnt have an NFL job because he wasnt good enough, no longer a starter, for teams to put up with his distractions.
I watched the entire thing. I have a religious education and studied for Seminary.
This is not the venue, but I feel confident that what he’s espoused in his multiple speaking engagements (not just the commencement address) is non-biblical (as opposed to using the Aramaic and Greek original texts) doctrine. He’s also absolutely not any kind of expert on public policy or sociology so at best he can offer an uninformed opinion and honestly, we’re all full on that.
That’s the problem *I* have.
And with that I’ll defend with my last breath his right to say what he’s said.
Edit: sorry. I hadn’t read the entire thread before responding. I’ll refrain from further comment
