What's this?

Thought the story said she started the game she didn't kneel for.

And yes, it sounds like there was some "Cancel culture" going on by teammates based on some non-"woke" texts she sent earlier.

Amazing what one can learn if they actually read the article.

You have a protection from discrimination due to your political beliefs? -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 5:32PM

And you can't fire career professionals from the DOJ for being a Democrat. -- Blah 04/19/2021 5:38PM

You are assuming the coach isn’t some woke snowflake -- TomKazanski 04/19/2021 3:40PM

Yes. I am assuming he is not a snowflake like you. I could be wrong -- BocaHoo91 04/19/2021 5:46PM

I don't really think that is the point -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:36PM

Yes, and I also read the other girl was on scholarship, and yes, I can -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 5:42PM

Nothing screams Woke like Coach Chugger from Cali. ** -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:11PM

So woke is bad to you? ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:34PM

When you can't tolerate someone that refuses to kneel for the anthem? -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:36PM

That's pathetic -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:38PM

To be fair, the self-proclaimed most woke can be quite intolerant and -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:41PM

Agreed. ** -- HoosWillWin 04/19/2021 4:13PM

Then that's not being woke that's being intolerant. ** -- HoodatB 04/19/2021 3:50PM

Fair point. It’s bad for P.R. ** -- Molina 04/19/2021 3:52PM

What do you think happened here? Chugger certainly didn't share your level -- Hoodafan 04/19/2021 3:41PM
