So don’t despair if you are condemned and persecuted for righteousness’ sake. Whenever you take a stand for truth and justice, you are liable to scorn. Often you will be called an impractical idealist or a dangerous radical. Sometimes it might mean going to jail. It might even mean physical death. But if physical death is the price some must pay to free their children from a permanent life of psychological death, then nothing could be more Christian. Martin Luther King, Jr.1 In August 2016 San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick began sitting for the national anthem during the NFL’s preseason. His protest went unnoticed for the first two games as he was wearing plainclothes on the bench, but on August 26, 2016, after the third game, he was approached by media wondering why he had remained seated: ‘I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,’ Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game. ‘To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. Kaepernick’s Kneel: A Misinterpretation of a Movement Abstract Overview: I am most proud of singing the national anthem. It gave me the opportunity to share my musical gift, building my confidence along the way. I performed the national anthem for over thirty athletic events. I sang for a men’s regional hockey game, a women’s regional volleyball game, three men’s regional volleyball games and for women’s basketball and men’s football games. Every time I sang the national anthem, I felt full. It became an important song to me and a reminder of principal memories. As an influential song to me and many others, it was absurd that athletes abused its sanctity. As I watched the football games every Sunday afternoon, each new protest during the singing of the national anthem set off a rage within me.

    220170 1 7 FFOOTBALLO O T B A L L SCHEDULING & TIEBREAKER PROCEDURE Conference Competition. All teams will be scheduled to play nine games as part of the Conference schedule competing in a round-robin format. Championship Game Participants. The two teams that complete the regular season with the highest winning percentage(s) will be the representa- tives in the Conference Championship Game. The team that wins the championship game will be the Big 12 Champion. Tiebreaker Procedure. If two teams are tied for fi rst place both teams will participate in the championship game and the winner of the head-to- head will be the #1 seed. If more than two teams tie for fi rst place, the tiebreaker procedures below will be applied separately, to identify each participant in the championship game. In the event two (or more teams) tie for second or any subsequent position, the tiebreaker procedures below will be used to break all ties as neces- sary. For the avoidance of doubt, only Conference records will be used throughout the process: a. If two teams are tied, the winner of the regular-season game between the two tied teams shall prevail. b. If three or more teams are tied, steps 1 through 4 will be followed until a determination is made. If only two teams remain tied after any step, the winner of the regular season game between the two tied teams shall prevail. 1. The Conference records of the three or more teams will be compared against each other in a “mini round-robin” format.
