You can't be bringing your personal agenda out on a NFL playing field no more than you can do that at your job. The guy didn't know this?

People spend big $$$$ for a few hours of entertainment they aren't there to be reminded of how screwed up things are, so ya keep that stuff out of the way.

Some big lineman should have....stand your arse up son that is my national anthem.

Too late now and he should also know that.

He's still pushing that same ol' line about desperately wanting to be an NFL Quarterback?

I bet when he's as old as George Blanda was:



He'll be saying, just give me a shot.

Good gawd WHY?!?! This fraud grew up with a solid Family & was gifted enough to play college ball & advance to the Pro’s, making millions. Then he chose to be be a puppet to the radical batshit crazy marxists….and still profited big time!

He’s so oppressed…I feel so sorry for him!!!!!

I believe him.

His limelight is dying and he’s gotta do something to get back some media attention. Maybe he’s gonna have another “tryout” like last time.

I guess he does a lot of leg work to make sure he can kneel and stand back up without any issue.

I don’t feel particularly sympathetic to him. It’s just that a good amount of this board gets apoplectic about athletes to levels I can’t fathom unless these people were rapists, pedophiles or murderers.

Kaepernick had a very good childhood, is a good test taker who greatly overestimates his intelligence, and has a very naive view of the world. He fits in well with the activist left.

As for his football career, I think he got a raw deal his first year. The second year is arguable, and from that point forward it has been more advantageous for him to not play than for him to make the team.

After 2019?
being out of the game since 2016. . .and being a backup when he bailed?

From a purely objective perspective, who would you cut to add Kaepernick?

What you would be gaining:

-Maybe a passable backup with a huge ego
-The insane girlfriend calling your front office slaveowners
-Kaepernick sideshow nonsense
-You would be uniquely pressured by EVERYONE to play him immediately, or you are racist (possibly slaveowners)
-loss of revenue from Trumpers. (You may think this acceptable, but could be a fiscal nightmare)
-loss of support from Veterans and police. (whether you think it is warranted or not, you KNOW it would happen)
-Tentative good press from the left, Unrelenting bad press from the right (currently your team is not getting either, in relation to this)


What do you lose:
-Some contributing player
