An attorney representing former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick sharply criticized rapper Jay-Z on Tuesday after Jay-Z met with NFL officials to speak about social justice issues while Kaepernick remains unemployed.

Mark Geragos, who is representing Kaepernick in his dealings with the NFL, told ABC News that the partnership amounted to crossing an "intellectual picket line."
"This deal between Jay-Z and the NFL crosses the intellectual picket line," Geragos told ABC.
"I can confirm to you that the deal was already done prior to any conversation that [Kaepernick] had with Jay-Z and he certainly didn’t have any conversations with the NFL," Geragos added.

These publicity hound attorneys like Geragos and Gloria Allred never do this for the fees. They are only in it for the free face time in the media on another social justice cause.
This is why I will never watch another NFL game. I have conservative friends who do, and I will never understand why.
I agree. Most blacks just want to watch a game and cheer for their team.
But this is really about race-baiters using race, once again, to gain power and control.
Blacks have been complaining for years about players, coaches, managers, and owners.
This manufactured controversy is just a means to power and control of the NFL.
They smell blood in the water and they're going to keep hammering the NFL until they gain control.
Mark Geragos. Wasn’t he in trouble with avenatti regarding shakedown of Nike?
I did not say it clearly. I meant that hiring Jay-Z is getting the NFL involved in BLM/Social change BS. It still seems to me it is about somehow making the white fans feel guilty because of white privilege...or something...
It does get away from the literal kneeling, but it is still SJW nonsense that does not belong in a sport.
We’ll see your Kaepernick and raise you with a Jay Z........
Nothing would end all this nonsense like an
EPIC FAIL on the field.
So, the Colin K. thing was not actually about social justice, it was just about employing him again. Good to know.
It's about using BLM, white guilt, white privilege, etc. to force the white-owner power structure to essentially turn the NFL over to blacks.
The NFL can't win. No concession will be enough. Everything they say and do will only be defined as racist. Everything.
Demands will only increase. The NFL will make concessions. It won't be enough. Demands will increase because the NFL is still racist.
Black activists won't stop until they gain control of the NFL. That's their ultimate goal.
Kaepernick should understand by now that he is out of the NFL forever. He nearly destroyed professional football and no owner wants him back. But he is so self important that any other person moving ahead of him is targeted and defamed.
Represented Susan McDougal and Roger CLinton.
The first time White defensive end knocks Krapernick to the ground the ferals will react like they’re busting up a KKK rally.
The NFL is run by an old boy’s club that didn’t want their communications part of the public record. For an $8 billion dollar a year revenue company $50 million was pocket change and well worth it to keep their privacy.
“No amount of pandering or concessions will satisfy African Americans.“
Well, big reparations, control of half of our businesses, preferential hiring of blacks and half black TV and movies and music might, maybe, satisfy them.
But, I suspect they actually want white slavery for the foreseeable future.
I dunno why... It’s not like Kaepernick is actually a “black man” to begin with. He’s a “black man” like Rachel Dolezal is a “black womyn”.
If Jay-Z wanted to be a real prick, he could just reply to Kaep with: Shut up, white boy.
Kaep is getting $100 million from Nike.
Who sold out again?
True. Kaepernick is making far more money NOT playing football than he ever did playing.
And he’s had a couple of offers from teams but he’s playing the victim for now.
