    Default Colin Kaepernick Can’t Get a Job

    Colin Kaepernick Can’t Get a Job After NFL Executives Say They ‘Genuinely Hate Him’

    Last year, the NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick made the headlines when he refused to stand for the national anthem before his games. He made the unthinkable and said that he was doing that because the US is a “racist” country. Since the moment he did that, his career began to fall down big way. However, his move just hit him in his head in a BIG WAY, when not a single team wanted to draft him as a free agent. Today, Kaepernick got blindsided by more BAD news.

    Kaepernick’s career was reaching a high point since he decided to disrespect our country and those who defend it. The NFL quarterback didn’t think he would pay for this move, since Barack Obama was in the office at the time. However, in the time when Colin made the headlines, President Trump was elected and put an end to these anti-American dirty games.

    When the free agency first began a couple of weeks ago, Kaepernick was reminded that no one would forgive him for his anti-American attitude. The NFL teams didn’t and definitely don’t want to do anything with this kind of behavior at the huge risk he is to a team’s reputation. The NFL executives aren’t just avoiding him for his attitude and his bad form, but because, as they said, they “genuinely hate him.”

    “First, some teams genuinely believe that he can’t play. They think he’s shot. I’d put that number at 20 percent,” an unnamed general manager said about Kaepernick and why people are avoiding him. The manager also said that there is a general “fear the backlash from fans after getting him.” He’s practically public enemy number one in sports, writes Freedom Daily.

    “Third, the rest genuinely hate him and can’t stand what he did [kneeling for the national anthem]. They want nothing to do with him. They won’t move on. They think showing no interest is a form of punishment. I think some teams also want to use Kaepernick as a cautionary tale to stop other players in the future from doing what he did,” the insider said.

    This is definitely something that every disrespectful person deserves. He thought he was a smart boy, but he soon learned a little humility. Americans don’t like disrespect of our flag, hymn or country. Good lesson Kaepernick!

    Maybe he can convert to Islam and get a job as a suicide bomber.

    i think we are fooling ourselves to think it's anything beyond him completely sucking. If the GOAT Brady was a free agent and kneeled people would still want him because he's the goat. Crapernick just sucks

    There have been several reports that have said his ability was highly overrated and that as a player, he sucks; but even then, it appears that no other team is even willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and are citing his "undesirability" as the reason.

    IMHO his "ability" was not over rated, other than his questionable passing ability, especially under pressure...

    His running game~him running w/ the ball was what got him to the top but most/all teams in the NFL are afraid their starting QB is gonna be hurt..
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    YEAH, that's got to be it; because everyone knows that no NFL team would ever sign a better QB, then the one they've already got.

    Brady? Goat? You know as much about football as you do politics. I mean don't get me wrong. He's one of the all time greats but he's no Otto Graham. Brady GOAT? That's funny. LOL

    Can you count to 7? As in two more than Brady?

    Or should I really say 8? Graham won a championship playing in the NBA too.

    I read he is worth around $2 million. He will probably be ok.

    I find it strange that Kaepernick gets so much attention, when there are so many actual criminals in the NFL.

    There are 27 players in the NFL who have been arrested multiple times. No one seems to bat an eye. But don't stand up for the National Anthem in protest of a system you believe is unfair, and people lose their minds.

    6 players in 2015 alone were arrested for domestic violence. Beat a woman and you are still fine. Don't stand for the National Anthem and people cheer your unemployment.

    Multiple DUIs? No biggie? Weapons charges? All cool. But you better stand for the national anthem.

    The guys who do all that crap don't pretend to not be lowlifes. Kaeperpick's anti-Americanism is a lowlife behaviour, but the left considers it virtuous, and encourages him.

    It wasn't that he didn't stand. It was the automatic, go-to, typical bullshit reasons given.

    What makes you think that those of us opposing Kaepernick's bullshit REASONS are OK with those doing the things you listed continuing to play. Sounds to me as if you came up with your own bullshit in an effort to support nothing but an excuse making spoiled brat.

    It's interesting that you bring up DUI and domestic violence. A quick search produced results showing that in 2015, 6 Alabama football players were arrested for a variety of reasons. They included:

    Gunnar Raborn - Driving under the influence of a controlled substance
    Cyrus Jones - Domestic violence, criminal mischief, and domestic violence harassment
    Tyren Jones - second degree possession of marijuana
    Jonathan Taylor - domestic violence third-degree assault and domestic violence third-degree criminal mischief
    Geno Smith - DUI
    Orlando Anderson - domestic violence third degree criminal mischief

    Only two of those, Taylor and T. Jones were dismissed from the team. The other 4 were allowed to stay.

    2016 didn't change things with the arrest of Tim Williams.

    Going into 2017, it seems that 3 more have been arrested. De'Shawn Hand, Deionte Thompson, and Lester Cotton arrested for DUI, assault, and drug possession, respectively.

    There is a difference between players in college and the NFL. But that aside, the details of the cases and the punishments show the coaches are concerned about the players and their future.

    A perfect example? De'Shawn Hand. Yes, he was arrested for DUI. Looking at that, it sounds worse than the reality. The reality is that Hand got drunk, realized he should not drive, so he decided to sleep it off in his car. Being in Tuscaloosa in July, it got hot in the car. He started it to run the a/c. He never moved the car at all. But in Alabama, the keys in the ignition, whether you are moving or not, makes it a DUI. Hand was admitted for a 48 hour observation to see if he has alcohol problems. Apparently Saban thinks it is better for him to be treated, helped and mentored rather than just tossed.

    But it is nice to see that my Crimson Tide is still in your head. lmao

    It's nice to see, as usual, you make excuses for the criminals at Alabama.

    What it shows is Saban is concerned about winning and could care less about the law.

    Looks like, from the list, Alabama has a lot of fine characters. I guess winning is more important that holding people accountable for their actions. Never would have been allowed to happen at a respectable institution.
