Goldberg recently auctioned a custom Auction Americas belt at Auctions America in Auburn, and during the event the former Champion made reference to the controversy over San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who has been sitting or kneeling during the national anthem as a form of silent protest.
“In a day and age where you have professional athletes not willing to stand and honor that flag, I’m up here to say I’m completely against that,” Goldberg said. “There’s no cause worth fighting for when you step on the people who have tread the ground for you, who have sacrificed lives, who have fought for nothing but that flag.”
