Miami Dolphins LB Elandon Roberts Press Conference | September 11, 2020

Football players are allowed to have political opinions. They are citizens of the US just like us. Just because they make a lot of money doesn’t mean they should shut up about what’s going on around them. I mean don’t they have to vote in elections too? Don’t they live in this country too? Don’t they have feelings too? Lol

Angel Tomlinson yes, agreed, however, my point only, was that the reporters, asking agenda driven questions at every press conference in my opinion is to keep pushing the progressive divide and conquer ideology on any player that doesn’t flatten their quest quickly enough, its frustrating to see them constantly being used as smarter than or better than others because their jobs.

Finfan4lyfe Dude I understand your sentiments but I don’t feel like they’re asking these questions because they think football players are “smarter” than others, it’s more of a casualty. Football players naturally get interviewed everyday, people like us do not, I’m sure if we were in some sort of position where we had to be interviewed by reporters everyday, we would be asked the exact same questions. I guess it’s weird that I have an appreciate knowing that these players know what’s going on and aren’t numb to it or ignoring it. I would also be perfectly fine if the reporters didn’t ask those type of questions at all and just focused on football. I think however things play out we should respect it and move forward. Everyone has different views. Thank you for sharing your opinion!
