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.

    • fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally
    • Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations. 
    • 5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
