Basketball icon Michael Jordan, weary of what he perceives as leftist actions, expressed a desire to impart wisdom upon former quarterback Colin Kaepernick, stating, “I’d love to ‘slap some sense’ into him.” During an emotional conversation with ALLOCY’s Tara Newhole, Jordan reminisced about his admiration for Kaepernick’s potential, expressing sadness over his current stance. Reflecting on the gratitude shown by black players like Kaepernick during national anthems, Jordan teared up, emphasizing the significance of the opportunities provided by the country. “Kaep should reconsider his stance,” he urged, lamenting the lost years and questioning the purpose behind Kaepernick’s protest. While acknowledging Kaepernick’s backstory and offering solidarity, Jordan remained troubled by the act of kneeling.
“He must hate the troops. There’s literally no other explanation for it.” Unfortunately, Mr. Jordan’s sentiment likely holds truth. Kaepernick may have benefited from consulting a veteran regarding his protest, as sitting instead of kneeling offended many. God bless America.
