Something happened to Colin Kaepernick when he was aroubd 17 years old...his psychological and mental development is frozen there...he’ll be that way the rest of his life. There’s nothing anyone can do about it.
I vote.... yes.

If Disney CEO Robert Iger has a clue and is willing to understand public sentiment, he should immediately terminate John Skipper's presidency of ESPN and at least bring back George Bodenheimer as a temporary President while ESPN cleans up its act.
Hey Colin, are you stupid or just apathetic.....
Colon Impacternick helped to put Donald in the White House.
Did Smith mention his earlier support of Kap’s actions. He and other ESPN commentators of color all stood behind his right to protest.
I think it’s great that he didn’t vote!
I hope he encourages like-minded folks to refrain with him.
Is this fool suffering from some sort of concussion dementia. What an overpaid, under-talented fool.
No, he didn’t.
I still appreciate his rant, but you’re right; he omitted his previous support for Krapperneck.
