out there, stephen packwell posted tim teboww finding a team and colin kaepernick can't.rivilege nfl style, tebow castro, never could, never played tight end and hasn't played in, what, eight years. explain it to me like i am 5. mendez ryan chimed in, he is angry about this, tebow hasn't played an nfl game in nearly a decade. it is that simple. no hate but you got to be kidding me. a reminder here in 2019 colin kaepernick was given an opportunity to work with the nfl but it ended up total mess, he left over a media dispute. some people on social media calling this white privilege. jillian: i understand the frustration, not necessarily pertaining to race but the frustration that he hasn't played a long time and it is all in who you know. carley: he is a great announcer. whether on the field are off he will have a great career. >> it is to get media attention on tebow to focus on the job of quarterback does not have all the distractions. carley: probably annoying for people working hard to get a spot on a team and can't. todd: who is this actor they talked about? should i k

that's how much i hate kaepernick. >> greg: we don't know what he did. hate liz cheney more than kaepernick. >> i think that's the point i was trying to make. as far as the election goes. >> greg: yes. >> come on. i disagree a thousand percent. she's saying there are no shenanigans? >> greg: trump broke a lot of people. kissinger is another broken person. they were probably sensible but they can't get trump off the brain, joe. what are your thoughts. would you like to comment on o.j.? >> the o.j. endorsement hasn't been good since hertz rent-a-car five years ago. if she thought the republicans stabbed her in the back, the man is a widower for god's sake. this is the problem. >> greg: i knew this would happen. >> this is the problem. the news media thinks the rest of the world cares about what's going on with liz cheney. we really don't. we have much more serious things going on so they are going to tell this as if it's something in your face, where as normal people have more important things to worry about. we're on the brink of war in the rest of the wo

i mean here in san francisco we remember what happened to colin kaepernick. >> that is one issue that is a stickler, as talented as i believe colin kaepernick is it's very tragic that owners have not created an opportunity, and you really would create opportunities, is this confidence but they have just not been interested in rehiring him. so that is something i'm disappointed in but there are things that the nfl and the nba are doing, with some of its leadership and things with lebron james and some others that they do all the time which are making statements and moving the needle. more still needs to be done but it certainly is not enough in terms of what we are seeing in professional sports. but we are seeing a far greater level of consciousness because of what athletes themselves are doing. >> a lot of the activism today i is being led by young people, your own teenage daughter one of them. what can we do as parents? >> i think number one what is exciting to me is the fact that there are young activists and many of them are young children, the parkland students just a few years ba

. >> i'll move on and ask you a question about kaepernick.ately thought of kaepernick, but is it realistic to expect that kaepernick will come back in the same fashion as tim tebow, that he would take an understudy role in the nfl? what do you say? >> there's no way that's happening. i want to say, and this is my opinion, no one has said this and that ship has sailed and look at it theoretically, when he had the one opportunity to try out, the reason why it didn't work out is they tried to put out all these restrictions and whether or not a team could take him whether he couldn't say this, and he would have to do this, both sides would have to relinquish power and at this point i don't believe anyone would. in fact, if the nfl brought kaepernick back, they would have to change how they would deal with every one of their employees and i don't see the nfl giving that up. on colin's side, he would have to give in to what he has become meaning he is now this urban legend and the leader in the community and this figure that likens to mohammed ali

quiet, they were encouraged not to, in quotes, "politicise sport," but i cast my mind back to colin kaepernickl taking a knee and establishing that as a symbolic form of resistance. this was obviously after tommie smith in mexico and so on. and this caught on, and sport began to understand that it had this profile and this power and popularity, and that it could use it in a positive way, so i think sport really is at the forefront, in many ways, of drawing attention to these issues. great, fantastic, thanks very much indeed. we will go to perth in australia to karen hennessy. karen, what is your question? hi. on behalf of the women in sport. in western australia and australia, i would like to ask this question. if you can't see it, you can't be it. . the lack of coverage of women's sport in the media has _ a trickle—down effect on young girls playing sports. _ putting women's sport front and centre of newspapers, i ltelevision and billboards shows| young girls what they can aspire to be and that the sport - that they love they can play at an elite level, and there are pathways to get there. |

where at the same time the corporate executives at nike are bowing to political pressure from colin kaepernickence or allusion to the slave era in the united states. we find out that they are sourcing from a bipartisan congressional report, nike is sourcing their sneakers from slave labor in the shenzhen province from the uyghurs. on top of that when congress passed overwhelming huge bipartisan vote, to ban prohibit products coming from slave labor, nike lobbied against that. it is about time someone pointed out this range hypocrisy. elizabeth: we should point out nike heededly deny but would not testify before house foreign affairs recently. this conservative group, the non-profit consumers research director, will hid, american airlines shrunk leg room for passengers, laid off workers, thousands of them during the pandemic. they got billions in taxpayer bailouts and coca-cola, nike, he also again is saying they exploit forced labor overseas in places like china. sir, where is the dramatic statement from 100 companies on china's slave labor, on cracking down on democracy in hong kong, cracking

most of those that are colin kaepernick supporters who think this is a privilege on tim tebow's behalfthe host of the herd on fs1, i'm not going to say someone that necessarily modeled myself after in sports but certainly a guy that is worth being modeled after. absolute leading voice of sports, collin is here. why is tim getting a shot? >> it's more marketing than merit at this point. he's very close with urban meyer. he won national championships. in my person, he's the most popular college football player of my lifetime. a completely compelling story. he put his faith out there. you know, he's just -- he still feeling to some degree like, you know, a great high school college player. this feels very much about marketing, not merit. he tried out for the new york mets. sandy alderson acknowledged about his celebrity, a gimmick. i liked him, the person. i met him. i told him how i feel. he's not an nfl player. i met his brother. they're very good people. when people push back, i'm one of them. it's not about a privilege. people as you know, will, you get opportunities in all sorts of b

non-violence is not really effective in the moment that we're living in case important i think of colin kaepernick, right simply taking a knee on the field right completely nonviolent in some ways taking a meal is a subservient posture and the backlash that that happened from that protest. i'm like, wow, we're not ready right? you know, we can't handle someone kneeling for the flag. we certainly can't handle anything much more aggressive than that. i think that when you think the black lives matter movement and a lot of things that they were doing when they were, you know active with these police shootings were marches and you know staging sort of slow down from the highway and things of that nature and i think that's really potent for getting attention, but that most people dismiss them as the nuisance and don't see their activism as having real implications for for change down the line. and that's really disturbing to me because i mean, i think about frederick douglass's quote and i think about how how you can have 40 years of peace how the abolitionist had been pushing from the 30s 20s and 30s

let's look at what happened to colin kaepernick, for example.peaceful demonstration about the fact that too many black americans were dying at the hands of police for no good reason, unarmed people. and everybody wanted to distort what he was saying, saying he was unamerican and that he hated the country and hated the flag. that wasn't the issue. the issue was police overreaction and violence toward the black community. he was trying to bring that issue to the forefront and get people to discuss it. look what happened to him. fortunately people came around, finally, the nfl came around and apologized for not seeing the truth in what he was trying to do. it wasn't that he was trying to harm our country, he was trying to get people to deal with this issue. it's a very important issue. >> kareem abdul-jabar, it's always a privilege and an honor, sir. thank you. >> thanks. great talking to you. >> and there's going to be much more of chuck's conversation with kareem abdul-jabar on our streaming show "meet the press reports." you can watch both of th

it was just like a colin kaepernick debate from previous years but because there war fewer sports on, when the shutdown took place, it was like the number one story, on free front page of the post and on nightly news programs. it was basically everywhere. espn was meeting with it all day along for three days because there was no games, and to me it was always about, okay, what is next? how are they going to put this back together? and i'll be honest, selfishly it was good time to catch my breath. ahad been going to games like crazy and i talked to mark tatum, the deputy commissioner of the nba and he was like, this was a well-need break and saying this in september with a chance to reflect. we through the schedule together. you can never predict everything. these guys were tired, emotionally drained and exhausted, and so we're in a situation where it was better that people could catch their breath and i felt it, too. i was funny. i bright giant lego set drown and i had planned to build this thing as way of staying mentally balanced and occupy my time and that sat untouched in the corn

kaepernick's home and see who he calls when they are burglarized and steal his home. one will buy a book that takes about getting rid of police officers. you know, what in the hell is going on in this world, maria? maria: yeah. >> police officers are necessary in the world. it's unfortunate. i tell you what, when we get rid of all the crooks, when we get of all the crooks that's when we get rid of all the police. maria: that's a good point. unfortunately the rest of the country is feeling the impact of this, ted. shootings are up 200% in new york. murder is up, rape is up, you know, assault is up. you know, mark tepper, jump in here because this is something that never made sense to me and now unfortunately because of the calls of a very few to defund or abolish the police, the whole country is faced with higher crime numbers. >> yeah, this is -- this is awful. so defunding the police, abolishing the police, that's not the answer. my brother-in-law is a cop so obviously i'm passionate about this. there's bad apples in every profession, medicine, finance, police, you d

and colin kaepernick who some criticized for taking a knee during the national anthem in protest of policet means that they can't recognize the fact that lebron has concerns, and those concerns will motivate him to do something about it. we all have a right to express our opinions. and in our community, in the black community, we have a duty to deal with issues that bother us because there's been a lot of injustice in our country that's been perpetrated against people of color. >> reporter: the six-time nba chapelyon wants the new award to highlight athletes making a positive change believing sports breaks down barriers. >> after we go back and forth with all the competition, we realize we're all trying to do the same thing and that we're all human beings who deserve an opportunity to have a great life. and competition enables you to see the commonality of the human experience. >> the nba plans to announce the first recipient of the award later this season. each of the other four finalist will choose a charity or organization to receive $25,000. >> kareem adbul jabbar is awesome. he is so

china, and whether nike's going to have to play its hand in terms of showing, like it did with kaepernick is not the way nike plays. >> isn't it the subject of the conservative ad campaign about woke corporations? isn't that one of the things they're going after? it's very interesting time, as we pointed out many times over this last, well, year, more than year, you know, period of time, where corporations are choosing to engage. in issues that they typically might not have but are under pressure to do so by their customers by their employees and also by certain parts of their shareholders. >> the customers >> yes. >> who are always right. they are asking questions. >> they are. and the employees are very important here with names like this and many others in terms of what the company, what the ceo will choose to do. >> what's the number one customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction company in the country? >> i don't know. what is it >> cisco who takes, by the way, chuck robbins wildly takes very powerful stands on issues. >> if i'm a shareholder, am i happy? am i happy with cisco? >>

when donald trump used his office to bully the nfl into depriving colin kaepernick of his career, thatsts to make it easier to legally kill those who persist, it is cancellationist policy, twitter mobs are bad, but an actual mob, bated by elected officials into attempting the violent overthrow of an election is something more. it should not surprise us that a hoard, addicted to a national myth that pitched white men as the unvarnished savior of all civilian is not prime to share the country that they've been taught that they own. it is myth that safrpth phis sanctify that action and they attack the vote to prevent us from enacting a better world. they attack the history to prevent us from ever imagining one. >> a huge thank you to the james baldwin of our time, ta-nehisi. watch the cross connection, america's racial reckoning next saturday at 10:00 a.m. eastern. we're not done yet because up next, we're talking about donald trump and his flips. stay with us. but they can't be held back. they want to be set free. to make the world more responsible, and even more incredible. ideas start

one thing that roger said that i think that the best example was when nike decided to make colin kaepernickokay, well that's a risky decision to make, because traditionally, it would have been seen as a really risky decision to make. their stock went down the first week, because the stock market was concerned. but because of the demographic that roger is talking about, the explosion in millennials, because of their spending habits. and because they're going to spend a lot more, and thaur they're going to float from brand to brand to brand more than people our age. nike made that decision and nike's stock went up. and gallup reported years after they selected him as brand ambassador. that their brand reputation went up, as well. so, again, this is an example of ceos. i don't want to break anybody's heart or shatter anybody's thoughts about how ceos act, but they're looking at the bottom line. because their shareholders are vicious. if the stock goes down, they get kicked out, they're not going to do anybody any favors. they're always looking at the bottom line and these decisions are driven
