Re: Ditka
NFL great Mike Ditka was blitzed by critics Tuesday after he declared in a radio interview that “there has been no oppression in the last 100 years that I know of.”
“All of a sudden, it’s become a big deal,” Ditka said on Westwood One’s Monday Night Football pregame show, in response to a question about players protesting social injustice by taking a knee during the national anthem
...
Ditka later apologized for the statement and said that he was referring to oppression within the NFL, not society in general.
"I have absolutely seen oppression in society in the last 100 years and I am completely intolerant of any discrimination," he said, according to WGN-TV.
