This, Donald.

The fact that he has been painted successfully as a demon in this country is very sad.

There's no way a proven QB of his ability isn't worth a spot on someones roster, even as 2nd choice.

I'm tempted to agree with you about the blackball issue but it's difficult to show whether it's organised blackballing or simply a case of individual owners or Head Coaches not wanting the inevitable baggage or disruption.

You only have to take a look at the succession of assorted clowns that have played QB for the Jets, Browns or Dolphins to know that there has been an unspoken agreement to freeze out CK.

What is interesting is that it is the NFLs chosen kit manufacturer who is putting Kaepernick front and centre again.

Personally I really doubt it's unspoken.

To be accurate: Tebow never knelt during the anthem.

Lovely views there by our roving Ku Klux Klan reporter Mark Dice.

This him ?

Good for him getting paid while not getting concussed, don't blame him. That being said the sacrifice everything bit is a bit ott considering Nike's probably been paying him more than any team would lol

Good move for him

When canvassing for Barack Obama (both election years) I was told to my face on numerous occasions by the person I was speaking with they would never vote for a black man. And it did not just happen here in the South.

When I was young I used to hear a term that isn't spoken very often anymore, thankfully, but clearly the view is still prevalent. Back then Kaepernick would have been called an uppity n****r. The gripes of Kaepernick making a ton of money playing a game for a living therefore he should keep his mouth shut all smack of that same attitude.

It's more than sad, ilikecheese... it's utterly pathetic.

Trumps new cabinet ? Or maybe they all had a hand in writing that oped article for the NYT and trying to hide their identities
