Colin Kaepernick: Longtime Baltimore Ravens star Bart Scott says city 'right place' for QB
UPI ^ | 12 August 2017 | Alex Butler

Colin Kaepernick and Nessa arrive on the red carpet at the TIME 100 Gala at Frederick P. Rose Hall, Home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, on April 26 in New York City.


Aug. 12 (UPI) -- He played in the city for the better part of a decade and Bart Scott says Baltimore would also be the "right place" for Colin Kaepernick.

"To a certain extent, with what is going on in Baltimore right now with the police officers, and the body camera scandal that is going on in Baltimore ... in light of what happened with Freddie Gray in 2015," Scott told UPI Wednesday.

"I think that the Baltimore fan base would think that he was standing up for him [Gray]," Scott said. "Because it was the exact cause that he was speaking of: The unfair treatment of minorities from the police and law officers. So I think if any place is the right place, I think it is Baltimore."

The 36-year-old is now retired from football, following an 11-year NFL tenure. He went to the Pro Bowl and played alongside Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Deion Sanders and other NFL legends.

"I think that the fact that John [Harbaugh] knows extensive information about Kaepernick and who he is as a person, because of the relationship with his brother [Jim Harbaugh]," Scott said. "The fact that the Baltimore Ravens played against them in the Super Bowl and he lit the defense up. I think that they know what he is capable of when he is at his height in the right situation. I think they understand."

Just think of how Colin can unite Baltimore. He’ll single-handedly bring an end to racial tensions. They’ll be no more . . . . I’m running out of bovine feces. I can’t continue. Sorry.

Canada would be a fine place for Kaeperdick. Send him there. The NFL teams had better not be foolish enough to push him on the fans..... rabid SJWs do not make up the fan base of professional sports, and certainly not for the NFL.

In Baltimore, you could get murdered walking down the streets.

No place for black men with strut.

I hate the Ravens. As a result, I hope they sign the Anti-American.
