And if Kaep is serious about making a comeback, why not go to the Arena League or CFL to show he still has it?

THIS! If this motherfricker wants to play so bad then go out and prove it on the field. GO be MVP of the CFL or Arena league and light it up and I guarantee you a team would take a chance. This guy has been sitting on his arse for 2 years expecting a team to just give him a shot. It doesn't work that way. Guy needs to fire all his agents and get some new representation that will light a fire under his arse. Having said that I hope he never sees another football field. Actions have consequences.

Miami talked to him and he insulted the city's largest minority.


That was my favorite right there

Then people wanted to act all shocked when MIA said "hard pass" on the outspoken Castro lover

The sources told Yahoo Sports on Sunday that Kaepernick remains willing to play for any NFL team that wants to offer him a job.
Based on his behavior when given chances to potentially join a team, this seems like a load of manure. I suspect this is a planted story for posturing and support of his lawsuit and doubt this guy has any real interest in playing again.

No idea whats on Kaepernick's mind, but if I was worth millions and currently have a large endorsement deal with Nike, Im not going to live in freaking Canada to work for 50k.

Why? He’s already basically set up for life with that Nike campaign and the political activism he’s currently engaged in with his camp and all that also he’s essentially worshipped by the MSM and might ultimately procure a settlement from the NFL with his current grievance, not saying it’ll happen but there’s a chance. He signs with an NFL team as a backup or even crack starter substitute, he’ll make submarket compensation anyway and it won’t be guaranteed, substantially less than his endeavors currently. Wouldn’t make any sense to return but gotta keep up appearances so the grievance remains ripe.

Why sign when he has a lawsuit against your business?

This isn't even a race issue, its about CK disrespecting those who serve.

its about him not being capable of winning football games... He wasn't his last year in the league, and people think he'd be better now?

If that’s not good enough then he must not need or want the job that much anyway. He can live off those endorsements for the rest of his life.

Great people take a stand for something and are willing to accept the consequences. Kap with all this whining doesn’t seem like one of them.

My take on it is he's embracing and monetizing the martyrdom notion attached to his actions and protests to facilitate a transition to a new career and did it at the right time because it was pretty clear by 2015-16 he was no longer a viable NFL QB and it wouldn't make sense for him to actually return and accept less money than what he's making with the Nike campaign currently, to what? Be a backup? No tanks, I'll monetize victimhood, less physically painful.

Someone for the love of God please sign this guy
Why? Because he cries a lot? He was literally the worst QB in the league the last time he was a starter.

Quite possibly. This article has no direct quotes from Kaepernick. Hes not the one creating media controversy everytime a qb gets injured. But the hate for him always fuels one of these threads.

To be fair, you are participating on a message board site consisting of mostly politically conservative people, caveat emptor y'know
