Kap is not the bad guy here, the NFL is. 

NFL tried to put Colin Kaepernick in legal checkmate

Thats exactly what I said those waivers where in the other Kaep thread...the NFL is not going to let him sue them again, it was basically a waiver saying that the workout does not guarantee a contract...

He really is...it pisses a ton of people off but this guy made a stand and deserves respect.  Football wise he isn't very good though.  I don't see it.

Totally agree with this and always disliked him after the 49ers playoff game.

Pretty much this. I respect the stand he took to call attention to an issue he felt strongly about. Anyone claiming offense that he disrespected the flag, anthem or troops is actively ignoring the fact that he sought out advice from a special forces soldier on how to protest without disrespecting any of those things and kneeling is what this combat vet suggested he do.

If you don’t like the kneeling, you are taking offense at something suggested by a US Special Forces combat vet based on their own practices. IMO this says more about your unwillingness to confront the issue he is calling attention to than any legitimate umbrage you take with the gesture. 

Having said that, I also think he was not playing well before the protest began and I’m skeptical of the notion he is a starting level talent now. I think his track record shows that at most he deserves consideration as a backup and there are indications he has been resistant to accepting this reality. So while I respect the stand, he seems to be shooting himself in the foot by not being realistic about his path back to playing.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
