Colin, thanks to you as a BLM/NFL useless idiot, you woke Americans up to the NFL scam on our tvs and in our tax payer stadiums. Your contribution to Americans will be remembered, like 8 years of Obama and H. Clintoon's campaigning gave us President Trump!

NFL = NEW FAR LEFT!

More NFL teams renamed: Oakland Traitors, Baltimore Cravens, Buffalo Bolsheviks, Green Bay Pinkos, Washington Red Guards, Los Angeles Chekists, Jacksonville Jacobins.

The Dallas Cowgirl Pussies!

"DUMB AS A ROCK"

Why is he demanding Kaepernick be signed by a NFL team, when he'd comparing the NFL to an antebellum slave plantation?

"All of us are having an opportunity to be able to speak to our employers, but to think about the guy who started everything not to be able to have a voice at this moment..."

Unless Colin had his larynx removed, he still has a voice.

He just doesn't have that cushy multi-million dollar platform to spout his nonsense from anymore.

>> figured out how to stop quarterbacks from running wild (basically they use a “spy”)<<

One DC said “watch the stripes.” If left or right, he will throw that way. If straight, he will run.

Works in college but not in the NFL. And it can’t be untaught.

The Lingerie League came out with a formal statement stating all players will stand and respect the flag during the anthem.

God love ‘em all.

can the nfl get any dumber?

do fans really want them to get involved in social issues?

doesn’t this whole colin thing and fans boycotting already answer the question that a portion of their fans don’t want social issues addressed by their sports entertainment?

what social issues would nil get involved in? which side of the issue would they take? they will create more mess. i guess the NFL is really wanting to commit suicide.

You're probably right about Colin Krapinhispants not being that good of a player anymore.

But I think the real reason owners don't want this guy is because of all the baggage he brings with him. They don't want the turmoil and drama on their teams. They are not obligated to hire him just because he chose free agency.

Just look at all the stuff that the NFL is trying to get control of now. Or maybe I should say, look at all crap the protestors have brought down upon the NFL.

This can all be traced back to Krapinhispants and his radical islamic girlfriend. Even his parents have disowned him because of his disrespectful, antisocial behavior.

And now he is suing for "collusion" by the NFL owners because none of them will hire him. Good luck with that. There is no law against "collusion", as the political enemies of Trump are starting to find out. Who would hire him? Who would play him? No one in their right mind.

If I made demands on my employer and quit and them sued because no one else would hire me, I would never be hired for any job again.

Free agency means he's "free". He's just not bright enough to know he's already shut the door from returning to the league himself. His own doing. Take responsibility for his own mistakes and failures.

But he's not smart enough to have figured that part out.

Send the Kap to Green Bay. They need a quarterback.

Not that I care or anything, but has Colin K even been working out, staying in shape, and doing whatever it is NFL QBs are supposed to be doing in order to be NFL QBs?

Here’s my idea on the demonstrating at games:

Have a period when players that want to place their bodies in positions of protest on the field can do so.

Have another period when the National Anthem is played. Only players that want to show respect for our country will be allowed on the field.

‘give them an inch and they’ll take a mile’.

Never giving the inch likely would have nipped this fiasco in the bud.

Michael is a racist troublemaker. Might be best if he was benched or maybe even given his walking papers.

I think the NFL players should strike until someone hires AND STARTS Colin Kapernick!

And pays him (in my best Dr. Evil voice) 1 Billion dollars!
