Roger Goodell Colin Kaepernick, wishes the NFL 'had listened earlier'

 Roger Goodell Colin Kaepernick,  wishes the NFL 'had listened earlier'.

It's been nearly four years since we last saw Colin Kaepernick play in an NFL game. January 1, 2017 was that day, as Kaepernick and the 49ers lost 25-23 at Levi's Stadium to the Los Angeles Rams.

Kaepernick's protest and public spat with the NFL went all the way to court, and the quarterback seemingly has been blackballed from the league as a result.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, in a conversation with former NFL player and Fox Sports 1 analyst Emmanuel Acho, finally admitted Sunday that he wishes the NFL "had listened earlier" to what Kaepernick was championing with his decision to kneel during the national anthem.

Clifford’s suit was ultimately dismissed and her claims ruled moot since the NDA had been deemed unenforceable. ADVERTISEMENT This week’s decision was the culmination of...

KFC Finger Lickin' Good, because of the coronavirus pandemic

 KFC Finger Lickin' Good, because of the coronavirus pandemic. Global fast food giant KFC says it is halting its "Finger Lickin' Good" slogan given the current hygiene advice because of the coronavirus pandemic. "We find ourselves in a unique situation - having an iconic slogan that doesn't quite fit in the current environment," the company said. It has altered its packaging with the phrase obscured but KFC said the phrase would return when the time was right. KFC outlets closed temporarily in March, but most have now reopened. The company revealed its new look through a YouTube video, showing the slogan pixelated on posters and its food "buckets", saying: "That thing we always say? Ignore it. For now." Some people commented on social media the slogan was not a health hazard as you were already eating with your own hands. But the finger-lickin' message has caused concern since the pandemic began. In March, the Advertising Standard...
