If you ask me, Colon's a shoo-in with the new Mexican American Football League!

Up until last week, the man who first took a knee had been giving the world the silent treatment.
Even as NFL players knelt in stadiums across America, as President Trump scoffed at them, essentially labelling them a "son of a bitch," and as seismic debates ensued on every network from CNN to Fox News—Colin Kaepernick evaded the bait, opting to let his charitable contributions do the talking.
The onetime rising star and franchise quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers is, of course, without a job.
He has been living in New York City, keeping a low profile and working out, only to occasionally publicly surface at small community events and on TMZ. He has turned down or ignored media requests since January. Even his social media presence has been sparse. An Instagram like here, a retweet there—most of which are related to his equality and social activism instead of his football career.
So, it's been difficult to gauge Kaepernick's feelings every time quarterback-thin squads such as Miami, Tennessee and Green Bay pass on him.
Despite public pressure to sign Kaepernick, who threw for 2,241 yards and 16 touchdowns in 2016, 32 NFL owners have dodged the move so far, under the guise of making football decisions.
Now, Kaepernick is calling them out.
On Oct. 15, through his famed lawyer, Mark Geragos, the 29-year-old Kaepernick filed a grievance against the NFL and its team owners, alleging collusion. They accused the league of essentially cohesively agreeing to blackball him.
While the complaint may force the NFL to be held accountable for collaboratively conspiring, it will likely eradicate any future Kaepernick might have still had in the league.

Now your just obsessing.
Reconsider your condemnation of the entire country of Canada.
I’ve had good experiences, great experiences and some anti-American experiences like when I didn’t know what the hell Putine Fries were at the London McDonalds.
I drove a snowmobile into the unfamiliar town of Kapuskasing up by the Hudson Bay right down mainstreet to look for an ATM.
I stopped for a second and asked a local if it was okay to be driving the snow machine on the street.
He looked at me and said “Son, your in the norther territory, you can ride that anywhere you like, just don’t get hit by a car”.
I mean, that was cool.
Did you know there is a street in his hometown named “Flutie Pass?”
A SJW Ryan Leaf led around by the nose/b@llz by a Muzzie.
That would piss me off.

My relative later told me. Because Flutie won the Grey Cup in BC, I am almost sure that if they polled one American QB they like, Flutie would beat Tom Brady.
Yup
He should go play soccer. Flippin loser.
I doubt it. Canadians dont like Americans in general.
Yea, maybe you should of told them you thought hockey was just like baseball, and see how they liked you.
Since I never thought such a dumb ass thing, it never came up.
Sorry, I was wrong, its even worse, you compared hockey to soccer,LOL
Most of my gaffes had to do with attempting French. I may have told an employee I loved him...
CK’s CFL rights are owned by the Hamilton Tiger Cats. He would be a backup there too.
