I hope no team is stupid enough to believe his mouth will stay shut once he gets a contract. Even if they write it in the contract, he’ll find a way to make his real thoughts known. He’ll be a nightmare for any team, unless, of course, they really support his position.

Sit, stand, or kneel, colon — As long as you do it somewhere other than SF, I’ll be happy.

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick will stand during the national anthem next season, sources told ESPN on Thursday.

No big mystery here - Kaepernick will void his contract with the 49ers today (before they can cut him), and his new agent has obviously told him to stop his social-activist posing if he wants to catch on with another team. Money talks and BS walks.

I hope no one will hire him.
He only changed this because he wants money.

If he stands for the National Anthem next year then I think he’ll be doing it in his living room.

"Go Figure" what? He's a race pimp attention whore and needs a job. He's like every other piece of liberal filth infesting our planet, viz. he'll say anything to get what he wants.

Liberal broads, for example, to get ahead in business will play the feminist equal rights card. To get ahead in romance, they'll act like the type (they say) they despise.

Hypocrites, every one.

Anyone would be a fool to hire him now knowing who he really is and all the problems he causes.

Since the other thread just got pulled, I thought I'd post my response to this thread:

Anthem-Protesting Former 49ers Quarterback Colin Kaepernick Ignored - Free Agency

If you work for a company, and you want to engage in political activism, you sure as Hell don't do it on company time; you do it on your own time.

This is a timeless business principle.

If you as an employee, and therefore a representative of your company, choose to be controversial, alienate customers, and cost your company money, you should expect to be disciplined, if not summarily terminated.

The notion that such disruptive behavior by any employee of any team (company) should be tolerated*mdash;much less encouraged— is simply anathema to good business. Its bad for business. It is , in a word, ludicrous.

Any team who signs Kaepernick knows that it will alienate fans and consequently harm their bottom line. Why "hire" such an employee?

Now that contracts are up, and options have been exercised, the chickens are coming home to roost for Kaepernick and his ilk.

Colin Kaepernick—the silly goose—has effectively destroyed his career. Or at least set it back in a profound way.

This situation should stand as a powerful lesson: employees should limit their political rants to their personal time, instead of trying to usurp the spotlight from their employer, especially when that employer is a multi-billion dollar juggernaut engaging in the business of making its employees rich by delivering a entertainment product to its customers.

It just astounds me that the Media has ignored this obvious principle, and that—even worse—owners and coaches have submissively rolled over for these idiots instead of standing on principle.

My home team Miami Dolphins took Kaepernick's idiocy and quadrupled it—with four players kneeling—completely infuriating its fan base, of course.

And the worst thing is, their "noble cause" was basically the extremist BLM movement which is based almost entirely on lies, propaganda, and the "racist cop" boogeyman.

Fortunately, the instigators of such activity on the Dolphins are not on the team anymore (Arian Foster, for one), and this year, let's hope that Kenny Stills concentrates more on catching passes than kneeling on the sideline...
