Ben Roethlisberger: I Regret Staying In Tunnel for National Anthem.

Ben Roethlisberger says he actually LOST SLEEP over the way the Pittsburgh Steelers handled

the national anthem situation on Sunday ... and wishes he wouldn't have stayed in the tunnel.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin had said before the game that the team would "not participate"

in the anthem to protect the players from having to take a public stance on the issue.

All but one of the players stayed out of sight -- the exception being offensive lineman Alejandro

Villanueva (a retired Army Ranger) ... who stood on the field.

Now, Big Ben -- who stayed in the tunnel during the "Star Spangled Banner" -- says he regrets

not joining Villanueva.

"The idea was to be unified as a team when so much attention is paid to things dividing

our country, but I wish we approached it differently," Roethlisberger said.

"We did not want to appear divided on the sideline with some standing and some kneeling

or sitting."

"As a team, it was not a protest of the flag or the Anthem.

I personally don't believe the Anthem is ever the time to make any type of protest."

"I appreciate the unique diversity in my team and throughout the league and completely support

the call for social change and the pursuit of true equality."

"Moving forward, I hope standing for the Anthem shows solidarity as a nation, that we stand

united in respect for the people on the front lines protecting our freedom and keeping us

safe.

Thank you for watching.

Why People Take Kindness For Weakness - Anthony Gucciardi - Duration: 3:19.

Unfortunately in this world, there are emotionally damaged people that take your

kindness for weakness. If you're like me and you want to be just a nice person,

you truly want to be a nice person. You know, that's kind of what you're

cornerstone is you're like I want to be kind to people. You know,

I might be crazy sometimes, I might not be so kind sometimes, but I want to be kind.

And you have to think about the fact that there are people out there.

And we don't want to accept this because we didn't grow up like this. You know,

we grew up and there were people maybe in our lives that were kind or...

We didn't want to accept the fact that people look at kindness as opportunity

sometimes. Not like, "Oh, hey. This person's being nice to me,

I really appreciate that." They're looking for people to take advantage of.

And when you are a kind person, when you're a nice person, you don't think like

that. Okay? I don't think like that. Unfortunately, I do now because I've

learned to over my life. Hey, is this person trying to take advantage of me?

But when you're a genuinely too nice person, which only means that you

don't think like a crazy sociopathic person, it's easy to fall victim to

emotionally damaged predators.

And these are the kind of people that like I said, they don't look at you and say,

"Wow, so strong to be kind and nice," you know. These are the people that when you

do everything for them, all they want to

do is screw you because it's what they know

how to do. It's what they know how to do. They're programmed this way in their

psyche. You know, maybe they had childhood issues. Whatever it is,

maybe they have a genuine mental illness. It doesn't really matter, but there are

people that are like this. And you've probably heard stories, you have stories

of your own. You're like, "This makes no sense. How is this possible?

You know, how could someone be like this? How could someone think like this?" You

see stories in the news every day of all this horrible stuff that happens.

And the answer is, even though the truth is, that kindness and, you know,

being genuinely nice and kind to people is the strongest thing you can do because it

shows that you actually have the capacity to care about other people and not just

yourself, selfishness being kind of like the lowest level of strength.

Actually very weak, right? Because you can't even help or care about other people

because you're too worried about self like, "Agh. Me, me, me." But when you are

super kind to people and they can't accept it, yeah, that's those emotionally damaged

people. That's those emotionally damaged predators.

So even though it's hard for us to kind of comprehend that, because our brains don't

work that way. We still have to remember that behind our kindness there has to be

strength, right? In the sense of definitely don't want to restrict trying

to be kind to people, nice to people. That's messed up. You don't want to change

yourself because of some demented people out there but don't be afraid to show your

strength when someone is taking advantage of you and those emotionally messed up

predators are trying to kind of pull one over on you. It's not wrong to say,

"Absolutely not." And show your teeth and do something about it.

So don't be afraid to stand up against the predators.
