He looks like a bad imitation of a 1960's black radical.
I keep getting him mixed up with Black Panther Angela Davis.
He just has a better mustache.

Correct. At the end of the day we control this outcome with our wallets. We can boycott the NFL, or any corporate entity what wants to play this game.

If the future of sport is one of brainless athletes calling their fanbase bigoted racists amid showy displays of disrespect for the country, sport doesn’t have much of a future. Which would be a good thing.
Eliminating all paid, professional sport would be one of the best things that could possibly happen in this world.
Former Baltimore Ravens star Ray Lewis -- who supports Kaepernick's message but has been a vocal critic of his approach -- has been involved in some discussions among Baltimore's management about the possibility of signing CK. He has basically said on ESPN that CK is unemployed mainly because he has demonstrated a lack of interest in playing football. Apparently CK has been sitting around waiting for someone to sign him but hasn't been doing much to stay in top shape and improve his game.

They cease to be multi millionaires when enough of us stop watching, and stop paying high ticket prices.

Now, if we can only get the pols to stop giving away our taxpayers to the same...
So if some athletes, let’s say, pray after (or before) a game on the field, they would be perfectly fine with that, right? No distraction, no problem, right?
Looks like Kaepernick has successfully made the career transition from professional football player to professional malcontent.

Remember when identity politics didn’t push it’s ugly snout into every aspect of our lives?
There was a time when we could go to a restaurant, a concert, a football game or walk past a monument a memorial or a historic park without being put upon by bug-eyed raging liberals spewing their hate and venom.
Democrats have torn great holes in the fabric of the nation and our culture by destroying civilty and making every breathing moment about leftist politics.

IMO, if the Right hadn’t meekly slithered off EVERY time the Left said “BOO!”, you might have a point.
Textbooks rewrite history\bad teachers - poo-poo’d.
Communist professors - “Well, just don’t GO there...”
More of our property & freedoms stolen & given to another - “Compassion & charity”
One abhorring head after another popped up: ‘Tolerance’ turned to ‘acceptance’ turned to COMPULSION, w/o push-back.
No wonder the Left feels the need to press further, who’s going to STOP ‘em? The (R)?? BWAHAhahaha. There’s no more ‘hills’ to cede.
I tried explaining to a liberal that football is entertainment. An entertainer should never disrespect half his audience. I was told it was Colin’s right to do whatever he wanted. I responded that, no, he was under contract to the team and represented the team while in uniform and he would most likely be out of a job. As usual, I had to stop speaking when the liberal started yelling. (I won’t change his mind and it’s not worth a fight.)
I used to listen to comedians. Hey comedians, here’s some free advice related to the above. When your audience applauds instead of laughing, what you said isn’t funny. Some of your audience agrees with you, but you aren’t funny. What you just did was brand yourself as a 40% comedian as the rest of the audience will probably never listen to you, buy a ticket or a CD again. You have relegated yourself to being a B lister for the rest of your career.
At what point will his skanky broad see him for the loser he is, and drop him like the fans have? She probably shopped for the socks and tee shirt, and ordered him to wear them. He’s a gutless, spineless dupe.
Only the Left makes ‘heroes’ out of LOSERS...................
If so, the "Days of White Fans Buying Tickets" is sure to follow. Get used to it.
Very well said and excellent points. All of it.
If far-left San Francisco doesn’t want him, it’s hard to imagine what city would. Baltimore?
If black athletes embrace this belief, the days of multi-million dollar contracts are over. Owners won't pay much if the fans stay home and TV ratings plunge.
When is it EVER wrong to humbly honor our Creator. Don’t try to equate an honorable player showing gratitude to God, with Klunkerdick pizzing on our flag, “Old Glory”; and our National Anthem. They are polar opposites.
I wouldn’t doubt it that he and the majority of his followers would pass the test.
another example of the little head controlling the big head.....lol
Yep, more important than football, which will no longer distract me from "more important things".
"...history will judge Kaepernick ultimately not as a rogue and defiant objector, but a man ahead of this time who helped spur an important athlete revolution."
Yep, he will be known as the man who hastened the demise of a major sport.
