Is the "League" Trying to screw Kap again?


Snake

Recommended Posts

I was looking for coverage of his work out and to see if we sent a rep to find out it wont happen in the Falcons dome but a high school. The reason being the NFL tried to force him to sign a waiver with clauses in it that said he hand to conform to league rules and waive other rights besides injury. Seems to me Jay Z and Goodell tried to silence Kap and he caught them.

They moved the venue because Kaep wanted the media there, its like he still dosent realize no one wants a media circus following around a backup QB. Carolina did not send anyone to see him workout.

"From the outset, Mr. Kaepernick requested a legitimate process and from the outset the NFL league office has not provided one," Meiselas and Nalley said. "Most recently, the NFL has demanded that as a precondition to the workout, Mr. Kaepernick sign an unusual liability waiver that addresses employment-related issues and rejected the standard liability waiver from physical injury proposed by Mr. Kaepernick's representatives.

They probably dont want another Lawsuit, the waivers where probably just saying that this workout does not guarantee a contract, they already paid him once....

He just wants the media there so he can say Do you guys see how well i performed and i still didnt get a contract, sue the NFL again.

Maybe this workout will go well and they can put the next one on pay per view. 

Really dude it's not unusual for Media to be part of a workout and post clips. This is why people end up getting mad when talking about Kap.

Yeah that was definitely a broken promise or a statement about Kyle. 

Seems to me that Tepper pretty blatantly brushed off Reid on he Kap subject and Reid thought that he could actually get the owner to sign his buddy, stupidly.

    • I read an article a few days ago that places like Seattle green bay and a few others are revoking tickets rights to holders that sell 100% of their tickets. That would do a lot of good league wide for bringing back some home field advantages. We aren't the only team who's stadiums get over run by visitors. It happens basically everywhere. That would go a long way to bringing ticket costs down 
    • yeah, you can basically copy and paste my thoughts from this time last year.   We are building an O more suited for Jake Delhomme than Bryce Young.  Tmac and XL sound great for the downfield gunslinger  Give them opportunities to make plays.  From what I have seen, and the scouting stuff I have read.....TMac does not project as a get open quick WR.  He is going to have to work on getting off the line at this level, getting open, etc.  Which is all good.  This you go to think people will be studs out the gate or you are hater logic just ain't what I do.   Take my XL stance last year.  I lobbied hard for him.  When we drafted him I immediately told folks to pump their breaks on the wild expectations.    If XL legitimately turned into what I think he can be.....his best setup in the league would not be paired w/ a QB like Young.  if Bryce was going to be the dude, I would have lobbied for Ladd vs XL.  I was an XL guy.   And again, I would have gone Warren/Jeanty this draft.   I would have invested in small ball talent for him to be the PG for. 
    • @TheBigKatare you going to Arizona? I'm thinking about making a road trip again. Haven't venture out since we got spanked in Miami a couple years ago
