I've gotten past the issue. I'll offer my opinion on the matter but can't find any real outrage.
I still find it disrespectful, but I'd rather ignore them.
However, we are talking about an athlete who supposedly is representing our country.
A person should not be allowed to do so in such a capacity.
It's America. You're free to protest. But when our nation pays you to play a sport with USA on the shirt, you need to stand at attention and show some respect.
