Steve Kerr slams NFL for “idiotic” anthem policy
HOUSTON — Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, outspoken as usual, harshly criticized the National Football League for its new policy prohibiting players from kneeling during the national anthem. Kerr, speaking at Toyota Center after his team's shootaround in advance of Game 5 of the Western Conference finals Thursday night, called the decision "typical" of the NFL. "They're basically trying to use the anthem as fake patriotism, nationalism, scaring people," Kerr said. "It's idiotic, but that's how the NFL has handled their business. I'm proud to be in a league that understands patriotism in America is about free speech, peacefully protesting.
