The Mix ^ | 5/12/2021 | James Conrad

Earlier this week, we reported that Tim Tebow was expected to be signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars. Since then, liberals have been up in arms that Tebow is potentially making his NFL comeback before their beloved Colin Kaepernick.

White privilege?! No. This is between the Jaguars and Tim Tebow.

Kaepernak went free-agent and walked away from his gig. Then, he was offered contracts... turned down... twice. Played games with tryouts. Failed.

Tebow sought a contract... offered... accepted.

Yup... there’s a difference but I’m having a hard time seeing what it is.

The comparisons aren’t even close to valid

kaepernick can’t pass the salt at the dinner without it being intercepted...

I think Tebow is a good guy, but hopefully he doesn't wind up like another tight end. Definitely one of the top positions for brain injury.

” This is between the Jaguars and Tim Tebow.”

This is between Urban Meyer and Tim Tebow.

I’m so sick of Kaepernick. Kaepernick had a contract and chose to opt out of it. He was given a second opportunity at a contract with the Ravens. He ruined that opportunity when his girlfriend sent out a tweet comparing the Ravens owner to the movie Django Unchained.
His record as a starter his last year was 1-10.

2017: opts out of contract.

The Baltimore Ravens considered signing Kaepernick as a backup to starting quarterback Joe Flacco before the 2017 season. According to former Raven Ray Lewis, the team did not go through with this after Kaepernick’s girlfriend made comparisons of Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti to a slave owner, and Lewis his slave, in a tweet;

2018: Seahawks set up another visit and workout with him in April 2018, but the team postponed it indefinitely after he would not say whether he would continue his national anthem protest or not

2019: offered tryout by 10 teams, doesn’t show up

Tim doesn’t wear pig-cop socks or Mao/Che shirts. Intelligence privilege?

White Privilege is getting drummed out of the league right after a season that includes a playoff win. Oh, but he is given a chance to come back years later at another position. Lol. Yeah, some privilege there.

Maybe Kaepernick could come back as a safety. After all, he is an explosive, long, fast-twitch athlete, with burst, hip swivel, and a room-brightening smile.

Well, yes. But right now Urban Meyer and the Jaguars are one-in-the-same.

Tebow hasn’t been signed yet. Will he be signed? No clue. Jags are quite thin at TE.

I don’t know about privilege but it certainly reeks of publicity stunt desperation. He hasn’t played in years, hasn’t played TE ever, yeah let’s retrain the 33 year old. I hope it works out, cause he is a nice guy, but I don’t think it will.

John Elway, who has trouble finding any good quarterback not named Manning, was interested in Kap. Kap wasn’t interested.

White privilege??

Tell me the net worth of each person and then tell me who’s privileged.
