SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick sat during the national anthem in each of the team's three preseason games and plans to continue to do so until he sees real change when it comes to racial oppression in the United States.
"Yes, I'll continue to sit," Kaepernick said. "I'm going to continue to stand with the people that are being oppressed. To me this is something that has to change. When there's significant change and I feel like that flag represents what it's supposed to represent, this country is representing people the way that it's supposed to, I'll stand."

Me too. I know some dudes that would make him cry and then decide his fate. We lost a million men for that flag and that piece of rat shit is going down, I bet.
Maybe that’s why Cuban came out in his defense.
Not smart enough to start in the NFL?
Yea, pretty much.
Glad he is on the bench.
Amazing how the racist one-drop rule the Democrats and eugenicists is now being embraced. Another trend we can thank mixed-up self-haters like B. Hussein for, starting from when he identified on the Census not as mixed or 2 races but black. A huge missed opportunity to create a more colorblind society, sadly it seems for every Derek Jeter there’s 1000 Halle Berrys and 0s.
The NFL has been reduced to the level of reality TV, so no surprise here - controversy is what they do to draw eyeballs. Figured the league would back him, PC as they have become. I for one am sick of them and won’t be paying much attention this year.
This fool says when there is “significant change” he will stand again. Have yet to hear from him any ideas, proposals, nothing to make change happen. All hat, no cattle.
So did someone lean on him to “perform this penance”?
Trump might manage to clear away many major hurdles and even get the majority black vote that he has been talking about trying to get ... and would he care?
This is all about politics and appearances, not about facts at all.
But so will you if you keep it up — not because of you frowning on what Kaepernick is doing, but because of what you have been threatening. You will find your agents of threatening will not leave you.
Cut him
Let him go study NOI, BLM, and Koran on his own time
His coach, Chip Kelly, appears to be a very weak coach and a very weak man.
Loser...
Why doesn;t he just THROW the game, giving the ball to the opponents. Why does he play,...even his playing is PART of the system of oppression.
The “oppressed” hang out around 1am in South Chiraq. I doubt we’ll see this pussy ever show up there.
DEFUND totalitarian collectivists and their enablers.
It’s easy to
live - free - republic
And to think John Elway tried to recruit him to replace the great Peyton Manning. Thank goodness that didn’t work out. I’ll detest Kapernik until the day he apologizes for insulting his country and his fellow Americans.
Excellent idea!
That’s why he was fired from the Eagles.
With any luck, Colon will be cut from the team.
I just saw this guy talking. He looks like an inbred POS.
