To take credit for something everyone knew was going to happen. There were more protesting players today, apparently especially in San Francisco. But everyone knew it would be less.

Most of these players are in the middle of their very short careers. They are concentrating on football, which takes a lot of effort and time to prepare for the games.

And you know what? Only people who watch Fox News give a shit about this, the rest of us are worrying about more important things, like Puerto Rico!
