        This is sad for me..."it will be the death of an Indiana Icon"...maybe all that booze & cigs made him forget who his fan base is?!?

        You think he “forgot” his fan base is a bunch of racists? Maybe he just doesn’t care what racists think of him? Funny how proud you are to say that’s what Indiana is about.

        1/2 Ok Levi your peeps are killing me so I must respond! 1- my compliments on a great website! Not a Raider but admire their passionate fan base 2- you couldn't be more wrong about Indiana...we have issues/racist (like every state) but at its core it's an awesome state!

        Yeah, you're the one who made racist connections to Indiana. Not me. I was criticizing how proud you seem to be to claim it.

        You can kneel any time you want to, but not during the National Anthem! My husband is a 100% disabled Army Veteran, proudly standing up for what is right, even though he needs a Wheelchair most of the time.

        Sorry lady if you want to force people to stand during a ridiculous song then move to North Korea. Being patroitic has nothing to do with standing for a piece of cloth and a song true patriotism is loving your country so much that you want to make it better.

        What racial inequality? Give us specifics instead of self-promoting theatrics. I see a lot of people in this great country of all races, beliefs, and creeds working and thriving. They worked hard despite their circumstances and succeeded.
