You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. Hope your Tuesday is going well. We've already had a pretty loaded show. Honestly Bobby Brak swung by he is one of outkicks media writers does a really good job. He was with us in the second hour of the program. My guy Lance Taylor 94 5 jox down in Birmingham been doing daily radio there in that state for a long time. And we're about to be joined by Paul Colton.

He is a hard ski who is an NFL Hall of Fame voter a writer at outkicks soon to be writing it outkick on a regular basis and we're launching a new radio show that will involve him and Chad with row and Jonathan Hutton who you've heard on this radio program as well as a part of the outkick over the top network. All that stuff is going to be a lot of fun and I'm excited about it. But as we went to break there. I was talking about the US women soccer team and their decision to basically say we are done.

With kneeling during the national anthem and the same thing is being said by English Premier League soccer members. I grabbed a few quotes from that story as well, which I thought was so interesting because the English Premier League has also been dealing with their own situation surrounding protests and the way to draw attention to things that they're concerned about.

And many of the players in the English Premier League are now saying well, this kneeling business is just kind of a distraction because everybody's talking about the kneeling and they're not paying attention to the larger context and we're ready to move to actually taking tangible action as opposed to basically a symbolic act.

And I saw it echoed here in the US women and I think the larger context here. I think the larger context here is this is not a statement that anybody cares about if there's not a rebellious factor to it anymore.

And when as I was going to break and I'm saying when Ben and Jerry's is coming out with their own protest ice cream. It ain't very protest worthy anymore because the man is on your side.

And if you go study rebellious movements as soon as the mainstream buys into the rebellious movement, it's over. It doesn't have any more punch any more power any longer because the mainstream sucks up the counter revolution and makes it a part of the new revolution.

And this is actually what happened in the 1960s if you go study everything and how wild it was in the civil rights movement with all the hippies with the anti Vietnam protest.

We're living in an era right now where basically instead of Vietnam, I think you can plug in COVID right the COVID pandemic.

You had Donald Trump and you had all the controversy and all the athletes and all the cultural and social conflict and then you toss in social media and that kind of created its own potent cocktail of of of of just craziness right.

That is the word that I think most people would use to describe 2020 was just crazy now there's other adjectives associated with it as well, but the one that I think is emblematic of everything that went on is just it was a crazy year.

It was a year without precedent. Well, that's a lot like 1968.

And what happened after 1968 is a lot of people decided you know what I just wanted things to get back to normal. And that was Joe Biden's entire campaign.

Joe Biden was basically like, hey, I'm just an old dude. I'm going to get things back to normal and I don't know if that's going to happen or not, but that really was kind of the same campaign that Richard Nixon ran.

After all the craziness that had been going on in the 1960s Nixon campaigned on law and order now Trump tried to campaign on law and order the difference was he had COVID and he was the incumbent and it's harder to campaign on law and order when you're the incumbent.

It's harder to say, hey, I'm going to be the change agent when you're already in a position of power.

But I think all of this is rolling together in a sophisticated and interesting way in the world of sports and without an obstacle to protest protest isn't cool anymore.

It's not rebellious and even Colin Kaepernick himself. He's got all these different deals Nike Ben and Jerry's he's making his own Netflix movie.

He's not very rebellious of a character anymore when you cash in Colin Kaepernick's got his own SPAC.

Did you see that? It's got his own SPAC. Why don't you even know what a SPAC is? Drazen money to be able to make more money.

He's sold out as much as you can sell out. Now I don't mind. I'm a capitalist. Sell out as much as you can, but a lot of people start to say, wait a minute.
