NFL to hold private Saturday workout for Kaepernick

[pmedic920]

As far as the “workout” goes....

If he can get a team to put him on the roster, and he can follow the teams/NFLs workplace rules, he absolutely deserves a job.

The only good that could possibly come out of this stunt is if he actually dropped dead right in the middle of it.

This seems like a bit of harsh reaction.

I have zero respect for that racist police hating punk. He has done nothing to better his so called belief and has even managed to bring disrespect to an iconic American flag on July 4th no less.
What a waste of life.

I love how he talks about oppression from his 2 million dollar house.

This is my take on it as well. Full disclosure: my father is a Canadian veteran.

Sitting on the bench & doing other things like nothing else is going on(this is what pissed Jim Kelly off in Buffalo a couple years ago) is totally disrespectful. Kneeling is respectful.

Sure in certain scenarios kneeling is a sign of respect.

Everyone knows that wasn’t what Kaepernick was portraying.

kneeling quietly is not a peaceful protest?

That’s not at all what I said but I’ll address it.

Yes, kneeling quietly IS a peaceful protest. Peaceful does not equal “respectful”
In this particular scenario I see it as millions of others did/do, completely DISRESPECTFUL.

No real reason to debate it, no one here will change their mind.
Some see it as disrespectful, some don’t. Each side is entitled to the opinion they have.

Those millions of people being disrespected are probably sitting down on their couch complaining about why are these rich black guys kneeling during the anthem.

Seems like it hasn't change. I remember a baskeball player for the Nuggets, Chris Jackson got blackballed from the NBA for doing the exact same thing. People got all butthurt and racial slurs/deathreats and burned his house down.

Bet you cheered for him endlessly when he was wearing number 7 for your Niners.

No one was cheering for Kaep in 2016. Or even 2014 for that manner.

This is yet another troll salvo in the three-year drama between Kaep and the NFL.

Some people call this a demeaning cattle call, but it's an opportunity no other free agent has ever gotten. Actual GMs have reportedly called Kaep's "team" apologizing for not attending, which doesn't happen for anyone else either.

If Kaep has the skills to come back, he needs to come back under what applies to everyone else.

Triggered would be the endless and pointless political drivel that is created by this.

What the hell does the price of his home, that HE worked hard for, have to do with his stance on oppression?

Someone above saw this as you being triggered.
I say it's more like projection. Clown shit.

Wishing for someone's death? Straight triggered to a frightening degree. Hopefully you don't have any authority over anyone.

You should really go back and read that again. There is no “wishing” anything. I simply stated a best case scenario. But you choose to see tit different. That’s the problem with social media. Words on a screen don’t carry emotion. Some of us are better at writing it and some some of us aren’t.
That aside, tell me you didn’t smile when Osama bin Laden was killed. And don’t give me that “oh that’s different” crap. Happy cause someone died is happy cause someone died.

Oh, so a football player engaged in peaceful protest is comparable to an international terrorist.

Ok, yeah. Gothcha.

I think you are struggling with your emotions. I don't expect you to realize it.

What the hell are you talking about??

 

[SoulfishHawk]

What in the actual hell? Peaceful protest and this guy is getting compared to some of the worst scum of the earth.
I'm STILL waiting to hear what he did that was so bad? He broke no rules, he broke no laws.
And show me how he "hates cops" what?????? And show me how he hates the Military.
Talk about missing the point. I wish Doug Baldwin could sit down with you and school you on what Kaep is ACTUALLY trying to accomplish. If he was a White QB or played for a team other than the Niners, how differently would you be thinking about it? How is he hurting you personally? What has he done to YOU????

 

[SantaClaraHawk]

The Lions are starting Jeff Driskel for the second straight game. Matt Stafford has a broken back.

Man, this guy. The 9ers got him in 2016 but still, when they really sucked, they wouldn't start him.

Lions were among the first to RSVP. If Kaep's going anywhere with this, I'd put Lions at pretty good odds.

Only half? Those things are delicious!
