Coaching Legend Mike Ditka Tells Kaepernick, “Don’t like our Country? ‘Get the Hell Out!”
Legendary Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka had some advice for whiny, anti-American a-hole Colin Kaepernick.
“If you don’t like our country, get the hell out!”
Sounds fair enough to me!
From USA Today:
The sports world continues to debate and discuss protests during the national anthem, and it appears this is one of the more fiery responses we’ve seen thus far.
Hall of Famer Mike Ditka was asked by Dallas’s 105.3 The Fan about Colin Kaepernick and he responded with this:
“I think it’s a problem, anybody who disrespects this country and the flag. If they don’t like the country, they don’t like our flag, get the hell out. That’s what I think.
“So if you’re asking me, I have no respect for Colin Kaepernick. He probably has no respect for me, that’s his choice. My choice is that I like this country, I respect our flag. And I don’t see all the atrocities going on in this country that people say are going on.
“I see opportunities if people want to look for opportunity. Now, if they don’t want to look for them, then you can find problems with anything, but this is the land of opportunity because you can be anything you want to be if you work. Now, If you don’t work, that’s a different problem.”
Ditka hasn’t been afraid to talk about similar issues before. Here’s what he said in 2014 about Rams players’ “hands up” gesture:
“I understand what the Rams’ take on this was. I’m embarrassed for the players more than anything. They want to take a political stand on this? Well, there are a lot of other things that have happened in our society that people have not stood up and disagreed about.”
He’s also called President Obama “the worst president we’ve ever had.”
Oh my gosh, Ditka rules!

Right on, coach!
Best football coach we ever had…….
Landry.
Professional football players get paid to play football, not to be the social conscience of this awesome country. If they want to promote a social cause, they need to do it on their own time and off the field. Ditka is right on!
So if people protest angrilly they are wrong. If they protest violently they are wrong. What makes this a great country is that people can protest however they want if they are not hurting anyone.
So, protesting violently is not wrong? What do you think a violent protest is? It is when people throw things, break things, burn things, etc. How are people not hurt when their property is destroyed? People also have the right to be morons, such as you are. And you are exercising that right by making the statement you made above, Sterling.
Not “however” they want. Your right to protest ends at the point before you violate other people’s freedom. Nobody can have a free reign to destroy other people’s property and not go to jail.
oh so looting, trashing, robbing is a good form of protesting…….you have a “mob mentality”….and obviously an IQ of next to nothing……as far as Kaepernick goes….he sure doesn’t have a problem collecting a “19 million/year” paycheque but he protests blacks are oppressed…..well, then fck off and go to another country…..this country gave YOU the opportunity to make wages that most of us will never see and you have the audacity to to “SLAM” the country that pays your wages…..ur a piece of shit…..
oh and by the way…..I live in Canada….and I don’t like my american friends being trashed….
Thanks for getting it right.
You are just a jerk. I have had my property stolen,vandalized, and that’s a piece of my life taken away. My money is time I spent WORKING to EARN that money. Take your cheese curl stained hands,get off your mommas sofa, and try going to WORK, you tool! Protest? Protest my ass!
When anyone does not honor our Flag and what that flag stands for is WRONG !!! WISE UP !! As a 77 year old veteran that had friends pay the supreme sacrifice so we can be free makes me very angry at people like you and Kaepernick….
So, Sterling, it seems that people cannot understand “…if they are not hurting anyone.” We hear from all the GOP/ Tea party conservatives that they are so tired of having to be “politically correct” but when someone does not stand for the national anthem all they can do is cry. It is his right to free speech to sit -to express himself. But all those poor conservatives are crying – they have their feelings hurt. How pathetic is that?!
Exactly! PapaBear exactly!
I’m sure you guys have a problem with President Obama being president, and with that being said, and with him being elected by the majority, and since seemingly you don’t like this country do to that, you and Old Angry Racist White Guy Ditka should take your own freaking advice, AND LEAVE! YOU GUYS ARE NOTHING BUT HYPOCRITES. YOU’VE BEEN PROTESTING OBAMA BEING PRESIDENT FROM DAY ONE, BUT THE BLACK MAN CAN’T PROTEST WHAT HE FEELS ARE INJUSTICES. YOU GUYS ARE COMPLETE MORONS. SOPHOMORIC DEGENERATE MISCREANT HYPOCRITES!!! Also, the playing of the star spangled banner was not him actually working. That would be the equivalent of you kneeling down in prayer right outside of your job right before you clock in. You guys are stupid!
Charles, why is it that if anyone disagrees with Obama, they must be a racist. Actually you are a racist for your ignorant remarks.
You are the racist Charles nobody brought up color till you owned your big racist pie hole. Shut the fuck up you racist fuck and get over color
AMEN Rick !!!
Charles first off your boy Obama is half white and half black. That being said I won’t be called a racist if I tell you I don’t like the whiteness in his stupid decisions on funding Iran, closing Gitmo , The Unaffordable Care Act, coddling Black Lies Matter, dividing the country by inciting a race war, and declaring open hunting season on law enforcement. The only injustice is the suffering our country has endured from Barry and her royal High Ass. Never seen anyone hate this country more than those two. Pull your head out of your ass and ask yourself is this country better off now than 8 years ago? If you think it is then continue to drink the Kool aid and smoke your crack on the way to voting for Hillbilly and sit on the sideline and watch the complete destruction of America.
I admire your response to this piece of shit.
YOU ARE SO RIGHT !!!
Obama was elected by 115% vote on some counties. He was very popular in the cemeteries too. Vote early,vote often,vote absentee ballot in as many states as you can. Get you some Obama, Obama phones, shovel ready stimulus…
Amen !!!
Roger, I cannot support your stupidity, but I am impressed by your devotion to it.
Saying we don’t like POTUS is something most people that didn’t vote for a POTUS says out of disappointment in how and what POTUS accomplishes. That being said does not mean that we don’t recognize them as POTUS. As a military person I did not always like my POTUS but I still followed his orders and paid him that respect because he was elected by the majority not always my choice but he is still our POTUS. Semper Fidelis to all our POTUS.
Fuck off Charles…you’re obviously a welfare recipient and a leech !!! You need to respect America, or go back and try and survive in the Congo. U R an ASSHOLE worthless POS just like OBAMANURE !!! The Nigga that ccoulnt’t care less about any of you blacks. The Dem’s have held all Y’all captive for 60 years…WAKE UP !!!
This type of protest does hurt others maybe not physically but mentally and sexual reproduction that it produces do hurt a lot of people. For instance the young children watching the game and seeing this who them believe well if he’s doing it because he’s a superstar then it must be ok because kids look up to these sports figures and they will mimic what they do. This in turn leads to a generation of Youth that is disrespectful and defiant to Authority and without Authority there is chaos. Take for example the so-called protest which turned into riots lately. Most of the protesters or I should say rioters have been found to be from out of state. These people have been paid to come and riot and most of them are young people who don’t know any better because of their lack of Education and knowledge of the facts.
That second line should read social repercussions
Ditka has no business telling anybody to leave the country. Any AH’s that spew FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM and then tell someone to get out of our country sure as hell does not honor or stand for the FREEDOM they say they stand for. #VeteransforKaepernack
Colin Kaepernick is another ill informed Negro believing in the LIES of Hussein Obama and the Black Lies Movement. The Black Lives (Lies) Movement is a bunch of RACIST agitators, based on a LIE being funded by the likes of George Soros and supported by the racist president Hussein Obama! Let’s not forget their chants, “Pigs in a blanket, fry them like bacon” and “What do we want? DEAD COPS! When do we want them? Now!” This group should not be getting any attention. However, the Black Lies Movement is a phony movement to cause chaos and division of the races. The Obama Regime supports them claiming they have a right to peacefully protest. What they fail to point out is they are NOT peaceful protesters if they are blocking the streets and preventing people to freely move about their business, but a MOB and the police need to start arresting the mob. A race war is what the racist black activists, Hussein Obama, Eric Holder, Louis Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and their ilk are pushing.
What many of these people, like Kaepernick refuse to talk about is the realities of blacks commit a DISPROPORTIONATE amount of crime. Black THUGS are very brave when they are in groups and are prone to criminal behavior, because of their sense of entitlement brought on the DemonRAT’s welfare policies, where they get something for nothing. The free-bees they get from government gives them the mindset they have the authority to take/rob/steal from other people. If they like your car their mindset is it’s theirs. This goes back to the DemonRATS war on poverty, where the government became their daddy. They need to tell blacks to stop with the criminal behavior, respect the police and then they might not be scrutinized as much. However, until they do they will continue to be scrutinized.BTW Colin: Do you know there were black slave owners? Do you know Africans captured and sold other Africans into slavery? Do you know that without white people opposing slavery and Jim Crow laws those institutions would not have ended? I doubt that you will realize any of those facts with your ignorant stance. People, like Kaepernick need to stop looking through the prism of black and white, but instead through the prism of RIGHT and WRONG; GOOD and EVIL.
Greg… You are a great writer! You put it all in perspective! Your enlightened response should be read and digested by everyone.
Ain’t that the truth Betty. You go Greg.
Face it Chuckie you fuck. Get down on ur knees and crawl to hell with Kaepernick and all the other pro ball thugs. Add a little torch to ur dickless balls, maybe that will SYouTFU.
Greg, I have never heard or read something so on point. Your response is just riveting. Its about time we stand up to this BS. I can’t believe how Blacks act and then want their asses kissed afterwards. You are so right about the sense of entitlement. This Colin knows nothing about his own African American history because he is too busy laying on the couch or making more babies so he can collect more money. Some will say I am stereo typing, but you know what, I don’t care anymore if I am because the can take their political correctness BS and shove it. I am on the Trump Train for Justice. If Hillary is elected we can look forward to 4 more years of freeloading.
Racist bitch
It’s better than that. Slavery had been abolished in Europe until the Muslims started selling them to the early travelers in the Voyages of Discovery. They would sweep into impoverished African villages, kill,rape,maim,then convert the survivors to Islam,and SELL them to the Europeans. We have ISLAM to thank for SLAVERY!!! ISLAM to thank for the “race problem” in America. …and then these fools bow down and convert to a SLAVE RELIGION. ISLAM. Satan really laughs when his followers pray to him, and rile our culture up so effectively with so little effort…
The NFL owners could put a stop to this nonsense but they won’t because they are COWARDS. This is not a First Amendment issue. The players are representatives of the team. It is the NFL owners who make the rules. Remember, the Dallas police wanted to have the Dallas Cowboys wear decals on their helmets commemorating the officers slaughtered while protecting a Black Lies protests, but were denied by the NFL. Now, a Tennessee Titan player, Avery Williamson, wanted to wear special spikes commemorating 9/11 on their opening game September 11, 2016, but was denied permission to do it and threatened with a fine if he did. The NFL claims the denial was based on uniformity of all the players. Really? Then are socks with pigs with a police hat on them part of the uniform? If not then why do they allow Colin Kaepernick to wear them? More players disrespected the flag and the anthem today by kneeling in solidarity with the ill informed Kaepernick and thus they are just as ill informed, because Kaepernick’s protest is based on a LIE. If the cowardly owners refuse to ban that practice, which they have the power to do, because the players represent the TEAM not themselves; then they could at least tell those players to stay in the locker room until after the anthem is played.
Welcome to ObamaNation! After seeing the chaos and lawlessness in Charlotte, North Carolina, supported by Hussein Obama and the Obama Regime, Mariners catcher Steve Clevenger, a white man tweeted, “Black people beating whites when a thug shot holding a gun by a black officer haha s**t cracks me up! Keep kneeling for the anthem!” Clevenger later tweeted.“BLM is pathetic once again. Obama you are pathetic once again. Everyone involved should be locked behind bars like animals.” Even though that is the TRUTH, he was forced to remove the tweets and apologize, because in ObamaNation white people cannot tell the truth about the racist Black Lives (Lies) Movement. The Black Lies Movement is a bunch of RACIST agitators, based on a LIE being funded by the likes of George Soros and supported by the racist president Hussein Obama! Let’s not forget their chants, “Pigs in a blanket, fry them like bacon” and “What do we want? DEAD COPS! When do we want them? Now!” This group should not be getting any attention. However, the Black Lies Movement is a phony movement to cause chaos and division of the races. Yet, when Colin Kaepernick pulls his stunt he is able to get away with it because he is black and the white ownership of the National Felon League are too much cowards to say anything. The World is truly upside down.
Very well said… thank you
Obama killed those cops in dallas. Sure as if he pulled the trigger himself.
If I were to protest at my job I know I would be fired . Sometimes you have to do that on your own time . He’s just a player who lost his starting job to another player , which happens to be white . Whine like a baby and find a way to bring attention to himself . We all know this racisim and hate ain’t gonna go away . It was here before and still be here when I’m gone . Just like any sickness or disease you can control it , unless ” somebody ” kicks it around and starts it up all again . You can learn to live with it .
So you’re saying that if they played the star spangled banner at your job, and everybody but you stood up, you’d be fired? That was a dumb donkey’s back side statement right there. Right along with most of the comments here. I’m sure you guys have a problem with President Obama being president, and with that being said, and with him being elected by the majority, and since seemingly you don’t like this country do to that, you and Old Angry Racist White Guy Ditka should take your own freaking advice, AND LEAVE! YOU GUYS ARE NOTHING BUT HYPOCRITES. YOU’VE BEEN PROTESTING OBAMA BEING PRESIDENT FROM DAY ONE, BUT THE BLACK MAN CAN’T PROTEST WHAT HE FEELS ARE INJUSTICES. YOU GUYS ARE COMPLETE MORONS. SOPHOMORIC DEGENERATE MISCREANT HYPOCRITES!!!
OBAMA WAS NEVER AN AMERICAN CITIZEN IN THE FIRST PLACE, HE ONLY GOT IN BY THAT OLD MAN SOROS PAID FOR HIS WAY IN THE WHITE HOUSE. HE FOOLED ALL THE BLACK PEOPLE AND NOW HE DESERTED THEM. HE IS TRYING TO TURN OUR COUNTRY INTO A MUSLEM NATION AND TAKE AWAY OUR CHRISTIAN FAITH, I AM 86YRS OLD AND I HAVE LIVED THROUGH A LOT OF PRESIDENTS, AND I WILL TELL YOU OBAMA IS THE WORST ONE THAT EVER GOT IN THE WHITE HOUSE. HILLERY WILL BE NO BETTER. SHE IS A LIAR AND A DRUG ADDICT AND THIEF. BILL CLINTON AND HER BOUGHT AND SOLD COCANE ALONG WITH THE FIRST BUSH WHEN HE WAS GOVERNER OF ARK. LOOK IT UP IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE ME. OPEN UP YOUR EYES AND LEARN WHAT HAS GONE ON FOR THE PAST 20 YRS.
I don’t want to see anyone disrespecting America any time in any way. When the Anthem is played everyone should stand and place their right hand over their heart. If they can not do this, their employer should ask them to not take the field until after the Anthem is played. It is owed to all the heroes that gave their lives for our freedom to show respect to this country.
Ditka sounds like a British loyalist in 1776.
“If you don’t like the injustices here, then leave” – Coach Idiot.
Agreed 100%
What country did Zitka come from because the Indigenous People are the only ones that have the right to send people home.
Weakest part of this country is all the cowardice bigots who hold on to the most idiotic ideologies and promote EVIL evil and racism. Kill yourself already.
Omg Colin’s gonna commit suicide???
And cooling spend some money on education…evil evil person is another term for a good person buddy…… Who’s the idiot now!!!!!!
Colin not cooling……#my phone needs bigger buttons
Kaepernick … Your disrespect for the flag and what it stands for is despicable. If it weren’t for America’s military and the supreme sacrifice made by millions of our honored dead Men and Women you would still be picking cotton. The next time you see a military person, thank them for serving. The next time you see a military funeral of a fallen hero, fall on your knees and thank God for that hero. As a veteran that lost several friends so you can be a free man, and get overpaid for a job that you don’t do very well….show your gratitude to that flag…that’s what the Flag stands for. FREEDOM !!! For you, me, and countless millions of Americans…..
I think if the tv cameras would stop focusing on them and the news papers and magazines stop talking about them it would probably just go away. The more attention they get the more that join in, that what they want, take it away and you take away there 5 minuets of air time.
Most of you idiots just don’t get it, Colin’s protest isn’t about the flag and until something like this happens to you or your family in mass numbers you’ll never understand .. Mike up until now had my respect but now underling and seeing these comments he’s made makes me sick to my stomach .. Let’s be clear most of you stated he could have expressed his way in another way , but the way I see it , you would have still pegged him the same way because of his occupation which has nothing again do with what’s going on… Wake up people dying by gun shot isn’t the American way unless you still see blacks a property and you can do whatever you feel necessary. .. Again I say wake the HELL up and look at the Big and the only picture and that , there is a Problem that needs to be fixed…..
The BIG and only picture to look at is RESPECT !!! If the thugs would listen and follow the orders of authority (in most cases Police) they would be alive today. You see Bernard, a police officer wants to go home after their shift. The thugs have watched too many movies of thugs disobeying and disrespecting police. So they try to imitate the “dudes being bad and cool”. Guess what …a movie isn’t real life. The truth is….obey what “the Man” says, follow their instructions, and live to enjoy another day. My three sons were taught at a very young age to respect the police. Follow their instructions, and DO AS THEY SAY !!! That’s the BIG PICTURE !!!! #1.) place your hands where the police can see them at all times. #2.) Do exactly what they say….”Get down on the ground with your arms stretched out in front of you !!” Do It !!! #3.) NO sudden moves to your pockets !! #4.) and most important is: teach a everyone you know this procedure. PERIOD !!! Quite simple, and everything’s cool.
Short reply get the hell out, I do not care what his protest is flag or something other than the flag stand the hell up when you see it. Bernard Harris you are as big of and idiot as he is, so may be you can leave on the same boat, train or what ever. All the money he makes give me a break, this is our country and he is dam lucky. He has American parents, and a big American money. I say no one attend any of the games or watch on TV, you would see the NFL change real quick. So all idiots who keep going to games keep on paying for their disrespect.. Yea for Iron Mike had the sense and courage to speak the truth, and get the hell off of this black shit. There was never a problem till the clown Obama was elected. There sure were a lot of other good black Americans that would have made a good President
Dottie , I don’t what racist rock you crawled from under but what does his money have to do with the cause ? And again you need to understand or have been through what a lot of Black citizens have been through, before you open up that trash can of a mouth you have… You are the idiot here, and there’s no doubt you are part of the problem people face , but at least one thing your partially brave enough to be up front.. Thanks for that.. Now at least I know who you are and what you represent….
Black people are the only real racist force left ask any other. It’s not prejudice bigotry or racist if it’s true. Reputation is everything get your people to stop committing the acts that gets your people shot and innocent people wouldn’t be getting shot. Blacks are what cause the blacks problems police your people and save your people
Amen Dottie !! Obamanure has set race relations back 60 years….
Why when i see those two together, i picture and ass and a fart? Why? it is me seeing this ?
Either salute or get out: Freedom according to dick-head Ditka.
I used to love Iron Mike & Hulk Hogan, & even liked Donald Trump at some point. I liked them for their talents, but I don’t agree with their political views or positions with race relations. I’m not a moron & neither are they. I do think saying we should kick someone out of a country b/c they don’t agree with your point is a bit ridiculous.
Ditka and the rest of these racist no mellonin having chromosome lacking walking dead white maggot MFS will get whats coming to them from the dark skinned GOD! For fucking with his chosen people! Time is running out for you inhumans! You have a problem with so called black people but ITS FUNNY HOW YOUR PRAYING TO A BLACK GOD! WHO IS GOING TO DESTROY ALL WHO OPPRESSED HIS PEOPLE! Period! Now stfu and enjoy the little time you have left!
If you mean Islam, he is a black God. Burning in hell will carbonize one pretty good.Jesus died for all, even those caught in Islam. It’s not too late to repent of worshipping that demon god
Amen !!!
You can protest but Don’t and I say Don’t protest against our flag the NFL needs to step up.I won’t watch one game of the 49ers.Let him go to another country and see if you can do that, it’s total disrespect.Enough is enough.
Dug his own grave there. Real leaders fix problems, they don’t just walk away from them.
[…] Legendary coach Mike Ditka recently weighed in on the controversy surrounding several ingrates who refuse to stand for the national Anthem. Directing his comments to Colin Kaepernick, the beginner of this nauseating trend, Ditka had some strong words. […]
So Ditka is in favor of refugees? People who leave their country to go elsewhere because they don’t like what’s going on in their own country? Great, let’s bring in the refugees! But if no one were to ever protest against the things they don’t like, nothing would ever change. I think Ditka does not like people protesting things that he agrees with, but he’s the first one to yell and protest when it’s something he doesn’t agree with. Wrong and hypocritical. Stick to football coach.
