CBS Retracts Story that Kaepernick Would Stand for Anthem if Signed
Breitbart ^ | 8 Oct 2017 | Dylan Gwinn

Posted on 10/08/2017 12:53:51 PM PDT by conservative98

The woman perhaps, most singularly responsible for Colin Kaepernick remaining a free agent, and out of the NFL, has spoken. Much like you would expect, her words do not bode well for Kaepernick’s chances of resuming his career.

Colin Kaepernick’s girlfriend, Nessa Diab, sent this tweet out on Sunday:

The reports that Colin will stand for the anthem are completely false! He has never discussed this with anyone. pic.twitter.com/tWusUBJMeF

After strong reactions like that from Diab, and reports from Kaepernick’s camp, La Canfora retracted his story the statement he had made earlier on a CBS’ NFL pregame show.

He’s a fool and will regret letting this stinky terrorist sympathizer ruin his life.

Nonsense. Kaepernick is completely and solely responsible for making the choice to ruin his life.

Fake News? Or does his Muslim handler have to approve all his statements? Either way, he should never get another team to hire him.

If the story was somehow true, that would mean he’s asking to be paid to stand for the anthem.

He probably said he would but didn’t clear it with his Communist girlfriend first. She gives the orders and wears the proletarian pants.

Behind every race-baiting, pro-Islamist prog with a hard-on about America, there's a Valerie Jarrett.

This is what you call a sh!tshow.

Kap will stand if signed. Players still kneel. Pence leaves. Kap denies story. CBS retracts story. NFL still in shambles.

laconforna is known in the business as “laconfirma” as he never breaks any news rather lets other people do the hard work of breaking stories then responds with “i can confirm”...

he’s also a left wing, Trump hating bigot- so its nice to see that, once again, he’s made a complete jacka@@ of himself...

Well, Kapernik just tweeted that the story was a lie as well, unless the girlfriend is running his Twitter feed too.

He must have looked at his accounts payable and realized this crapola isn’t working.

Just like The Fake News Media. Can't get nuthin' right.

How long did it take them to get the Tom Petty story right? 2 days? Or have they even figured out whether or not he did die?

she's writing checks his candyazz can't cash

By now, there's probably a large group of NFL players' girlfriends, wives and other assorted family members who'd like to catch this woman and, er, express their concerns re: gravy train derailment.

Reports that Kaepernick would stand for any games in 2017 have been out there even before he ended his 49ers contract. Now his girlfriend torpedoes him again, a few weeks after she compared the owner of the Ravens (who were considering signing Kaepernick) to a slave owner.

Pretty clearly, the people handling Kaepernick don't want him to play again - he's much more useful to them if he doesn't get onto some roster and remind everyone of his deficiencies as a QB. This way, they can go on pretending he's a victim of some oppression.

Yes. It makes it sound like the whole thing was a contract bargaining chip.

And the rest of the NFL followed him like lemmings.

Trial balloon. Maybe he wanted to know if it would make any difference. The response on the FR was quick and negative.
