    Gateway Pundit ^ | September 27, 2023 | Margaret Flavin
    In his Netflix series “Colin in Black & White,” former NFL player/kneeler Colin Kaepernick compared the treatment of players at the NFL combine to slavery. “Coaches will tell you they’re looking for warriors, killers, beasts,” he said. “They say they want you to be an animal out there. And you wanna give them that. … What they don’t want you to understand, is what’s being established is a power dynamic.” As scenes from a slavery auction play out he continues, “Before they put you on the field, teams poke, prod and examine you, searching for any defect that might affect...
  • Michael Oher is every bit as broken as the media members selling his Blind Side lie.

    The 2009 movie “The Blind Side” does not state or imply that the Tuohy family adopted Michael Oher. Neither does Michael Lewis’ 2006 book that inspired the film that won Sandra Bullock an Oscar. In 2011, when Michael Oher published his first memoir, “I Beat the Odds,” he stated directly that the Tuohys secured a conservatorship when he was a senior in high school. He wrote that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy insisted that he maintain a relationship with his biological mother and 11 siblings. Oher wrote that his mother participated in the procedures necessary for the Tuohys to become...

    YORK, NY — Beloved Football superstar Colin Kaepernick has announced he will be suing his white parents for the cruel act of adopting him into a white family without his consent. Kaepernick's legal team announced he is seeking $21 million in reparations from the couple. "The damage done to our client by growing up in a loving household under two white parents is incalculable," said Attorney Jim Grifton outside the law offices of Grifton & Grift, LLC to members of the press. "Having a present father, living in the suburbs, and being kept safe from gang violence deprived him of...

    Colin Kaepernick accuses white adoptive parents of ‘problematic’ upbringing, perpetuating racism Controversial football star Colin Kaepernick accused his white adoptive parents of perpetuating racism in a new interview. The former NFL star told CBS Chicago he struggled growing up in a “problematic” household, a throughline he details in his upcoming graphic novel, “Change the Game.” “I know my parents loved me, but there were still very problematic things that I went through,” Kaepernick said. “It was important to show that, no, this can happen in your own home, and how we move forward collectively while addressing the racism that is...

    Former NFL quarterback Colin Kapernick accused his adoptive parents of "perpetuating racism," in an interview that aired Thursday. snip Kaepernick illustrated one specific example of this in the novel, depicting a fight he had with his parents during high school over his hairstyle. Inspired to braid his hair in cornrows like his hero, NBA star Allen Iverson, Kaepernick recalled received pushback from is parents. "He's getting what rolls?" his mom says in the graphic novel. Kaepernick said that after styling his hair this way his mom warned his hair was "not professional" and he "looked like a little thug."

    Following her humiliating defeat in Tuesday’s Wyoming primary elections, soon-to-be-former Rep. Liz Cheney gave one of the most comically narcissistic speeches by a politician in recent memory. Despite losing to Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman by more than 30 points, Cheney thought it was fitting not only to forecast a potential run for president in 2024 but to do so while comparing herself to former President Abraham Lincoln.

    "One man has a net worth of $22 million along with an approximately $40-61 million deal with alt-far-left Nike as well, and is recognized as the greatest 28-30 Quarterback (3-16 in his last 2 of 6 seasons) to ever play in the NFL. He also spent his last season protesting the country that enabled him to attain that great wealth (beginning on August 26, 2016 during the last pre-season game, and ending January 1, 2017, his team’s final game for the season). He is also similar to another famous America hater whose mother was a white atheist from Kansas, as...
  • Colin Kaepernick Had ‘One Of The Worst Workouts Ever’ With The Raiders According To Warren Sapp

    Sapp, who played for the Raiders in the mid-2000s, was interviewed on VLAD TV last week and claimed he heard Kaepernick’s workout was a disaster.“I heard it was a disaster. I heard it was one of the workouts ever. I’m wondering how the hell this happened, and the tape didn’t get out, right?” The Raiders opted not to sign Kaepernick, and it’s unclear if the team is willing to bring him back for another workout before the start of the preseason.

    It’s important to note, as always, that Kaepernick is not a hero. The former 49ers QB wore pig socks, compared cops to slave catchers, claimed they can murder people with impunity and get paid leave, didn’t stand for the anthem and praised Fidel Castro.

    Former NFL quarterback and woke activist Colin Kaepernick last fall likened the NFL draft to a slave auction: “What they don’t want you to understand is what’s being established is a power dynamic. Before they put you on the field, teams poke, prod and examine you searching for any defect that might affect your performance. No boundary respect. No dignity left intact.” But Kaepernick has been longing for years to subject himself once again to the tyranny of those who are responsible for this horrific indignity, and now he may have his best opportunity yet: Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll...

    Colin Kaepernick is seeking receivers to catch his passes and a team to sign him. Kaepernick, who led the San Francisco 49ers to a Super Bowl appearance following the 2012 season, last played in the NFL in 2016, the same year he started kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial injustice. On Sunday, he wrote on Twitter: “For The past 5 years I’ve been working out and staying ready in case an opportunity to play presented itself. I’m really grateful to my trainer, who I’ve been throwing to all this time. But man, do I miss throwing to professional...

    National anthem protester and former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick posted a video to Twitter showing him training with the caption “still working.” In the video, the woke activist performs a quarterback drill ending with a pass to an unseen receiver. According to ESPN NFL reporter Adam Schefter, a source said Kaepernick is “in the best shape of his life. He wants to play. He’s ready to play. He would be a great fit for teams with QB vacancies to fill who want to win a Super Bowl.” The timing of the video is also conspicuous, considering it comes only six...

    NOT all our heroes end up disappointing us. Just look at Shane Duffy last Thursday. But many do. It has been a long time since The Stranglers sang about Leon Trotsky and an ice pick but perhaps it needs to be re-released. On some weeks, looking at the sporting landscape, it does feel like there are no more heroes any more. It was so easy to buy into the Aaron Rodgers narrative. The 37-year-old was considered the most erudite and cerebral of all quarterbacks, the most cerebral and important position on an American football field. He guest-presented Jeopardy! He was...

On his SubStack page, Abdul-Jabbar was jabbering about how Rodgers has destroyed sports because of his unpopular ideas about the coronavirus vaccination in a post entitled, “Aaron Rodgers Didn’t Just Lie.” “His lies, his illogical defense, and his hubris damage all professional athletes,” Abdul-Jabbar exclaimed. “What’s especially bothersome is that Aaron Rodgers didn’t just lie and threaten the health of those around him, he also damaged professional sports,”Jabbar railed. “I can’t...

    NEW YORK, NY—In his new six-episode limited series on Netflix, Colin Kaepernick proudly proclaimed that no NFL slave owner will ever enslave him no matter how many times he tries out to be a slave. After being emancipated from his former owner the San Francisco 49ers in 2016, Kaepernick has worked tirelessly to become a slave again. "I try out for NFL slavery every year, and they keep rejecting me. The NFL is oppressive, and it's also oppressive that they refuse to oppress me," he said. In May 2017, he visited the brutal Seattle Seahawks Plantation hoping to become a...

    Former NFL quarterback and original anthem protester Colin Kaepernick compared the NFL Combine process to a slave auction in Netflix documentary series chronicling his life experiences. In the series Colin In Black & White, which Kaepernick narrates, he appears in a scene where he talks about NFL prospects being “poked, prodded, and examined” for defects before the NFL Draft. The players at the “combine” then leave the NFL field and enter a mid-1800’s slave auction where white landowners examine slaves for purchase. In the scene, Kaepernick says this is how “they” establish a “power dynamic.” The scene closes with the...
