Adam, sorry, I already deleted about the Media buring it. The more I think about this, I think I am adding to the problem. At the time, it would have been possible for me to hear someone say that Barak Obama said that, and I took them at their word. I WAS SO MAD!!!
AND I'M STILL MAD RIGHT NOW because I don't think disrespecting the flag is a way to get a point across, and I do think any boycot will hurt the smaller guys...peeple that sell jerseys or work at stadiums, or in pr, more than the players themselves.
I watched the video, and you are correct that what the writer said did not match what the president said. I believe that this was said again...but it still could have been a commentator saying that Barak Obama said that, and he did not actualy say it.
Since I can find no link of it, I will edit my original post. I do want want to be inaccurate. I was wrong to post it without making for certain that that was what was said. I am sorry.
