Now I can feel safe and justified in rooting against him and hating him and hope he's a fry cook in a few years.

He always struck me as a dude out of touch and harboring a lot of rage
Oh well who cares what he thinks. He is paid to play football not pontificate

Sure he's definitely got the right to do what he did. Just as every single person has a right to criticize and ridicule his simplistic views.
All of this.

Send his black arse back to Africa

He's not from Africa. He's from bumfrick nowhere, Wisconsin.
Send him there. Or out of the fricking NFL. He's on his way out, anyways, if he can't beat out Blaine freaking Gabbert

You do realize I'm black, right?
I ain't from Africa. Watch yourself painting with broad brushes, ol' sport.
We're all from somewhere else in some way, anyways, if you go back far enough.

Lol this SF Mercury News reporter on ESPN said Trump's comments on race is why Kaep began to take this stand.

It's fitting that he was sitting, that's what he'll be doing for the rest of career. Headcase.

them:
Kaepernick is a 28-year-old biracial man who was raised by the white parents who adopted him, and who believes he can no longer remain silent in a country where young, black men are too often shot by overheated cops, and where blacks are forever asked by whites to rise above obstacles that whites themselves created.
African-American athletes are often asked (unfairly, perhaps) to speak out on social issues and, well, Kaepernick just did. If you don't like what the man did or said, that's your prerogative. But telling him that what he said and did was un-American is to lose sight of what it means to be an American.

This is the problem I have with the left narrative. Kaepernick having an opinion is free speech but me having an opinion about his temporary lack of insanity is unamerican.
GTFO ESPN.

ESPN turning into liberal CNN and MSNBC

What do you mean "turning into"?

Am I wrong for really not caring who stands for the anthem? It's really not that serious.

Not going to support a country that opresses black people huh?
Coming from a mixed guy who is fortunate enough to be paid $114 million to play a GAME in said country...well that's just hypocrisy at its finest.
I love it when athletes speak up about opression when they are held up on a pedestal by the rest of society.
Has Kaepernick stepped out in the streets to help these opressed communities that he is so concerned about?
I'm not saying his opinion is wrong. But if all this spoiled rich athlete is going to do is sit during the National Anthem, then he really isn't doing anything. Sure, people will talk, but that doesn't get anything done.
Go do something, you washed up has-been.
