New York organization planning pro-Colin Kaepernick demonstrations across the country
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | May 24, 2017 | Drew Costley

Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is visiting the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday for a potential role with the 49ers' NFC West foe. But that isn't stopping a New York-based organization from putting on a demonstration on May 24 at 5 p.m. EDT in front of the National Football headquarters in Manhattan in a show of solidarity with the quarterback.

Yeah, probably someone will have to accept him on the team. But the whole getting mad and admitting he didn’t actually vote, and other matters weren’t exactly bright things to be said.

Too bad there was NO msm coverage of this nationwide protest. We would have enjoyed seeing the numbers involved in trying to find an NFL job for a mediocre QB whom 90% of NFL fans detest. I only hope that Soros was funding this flop of a protest.

His supporters have actually hurt him by making him a political symbol. Even a coach that agrees with his politics is afraid to put him on the team because if he’s benched or has a less desirable position, the coach and team are called names, threatened, boycotted. No other player has this added liability.
Then you run the risk of the political crap driving away other ticketholders whether through their direct boycott or avoiding games because of fear of liberal bullies’ violence.
So no one hires him. Too much of a liability.

The New York Organization should demand that he be made the starting QB for the Giants. (If New Yorkers want him that badly why the Seahawks? Saddled your own team with him.)

putting Colin on the playing field is like telling all the fans (customers) to GTH

The guy’s a half-assed QB at best and he’s even worse at being a human being.

Yeah the Seahawks will most likely sign him as he is a good fit for the liberal whacks in Seattle plus the coach and all the other liberal whack jobs on the team. It doesn’t matter if he can’t play worth a crap-to liberals if it feels good it must be good- to hell with the facts.

Good. Bring it here and be ignored like the racist POS you are. Or maybe stick around and learn something besides your pathetic excuses for failure.
