Yo. I read this tidbit on the NFL "controversy" from Mike Rowe:
"
“In my view,” he wrote, “this controversy really isn’t about patriotism, social justice, racial inequality or free speech. It’s not even about the flag or the National Anthem. It’s really only about one thing — what we will tolerate and what we won’t.
”
I then fell down a Mike Rowe Rabbit Hole and had a hell of a good time.
Not a lick of pessimism and the optimism is built on a strong foundation.
