Either way, it was fun to watch the downfall of Kapernick and Nike


I despise his actions as much as anyone, but you are exaggerating with the “downfall of Nike”. They are doing just fine after more than a decade removed from his antics.

I still believe that he was kneeling because he was pouting because he lost the starting job.

Lot's of folks knelt and played long after Kap, article makes it seem that was the reason? NFL folks have let all sorts of criminals and undesirables play - he just wasn't good enough, the self-indulgent back patting.

Impactful? All NFL and MLB teams wear their gear. That doesn't translate into sales and revenue. Nike is struggling and it's not just because of this particular issue

Yeah I’m surprised you guys haven’t gotten hand written apologies from Phil Knight and Roger Goodell after the financial hit they have taken………

He blames his activism for being out of the league.

That's bullshite.

Even after the Niners he was given a chance.

Baltimore was going to sign him, but his bitch girlfriend took to social media and called the Ravens FO slave owners.

They pulled the offer, and the rest of the League decided his talent wasn't worth the hassle.
