Ike any hot woman, she’s the one who drove him towards his political stance form what I can tell.
One fair question I think should be considered w Kap is:
Is it ok for a private business owner to avoid hiring a person who’s not critical and certainly replaceable If it’s clear said employee will likely be a distraction and potentially be a net negative to a trans performance?
I applaud the stance he took and his willingness to give up his career which was already at best as a good backup until he started suing and complaining about losing the job. Protests come with consequences sometimes. LeBron James can say whatever and every team would still sell their mother out to sign him, but Kap just wasn’t good enough anymore to justify the related probably costs to the teams performance, having cameras and excessive news up their backside.
I support the guy but don’t support the idea he has to be hired. Wouldn’t mind the antitrust exemption for sports going away. Stupid IMO and this league that setup and failed recently (AAF?) wasn’t bad product in the few games I saw, so I’d like to see that happen but until they are required to play by the rules of every other business (sort of these days, antitrust/monopolies don’t seem To be of importance in our country anymore) I don’t think anyone should be forced to hire him just because he’s better than the worst second string QB in the league.
(stats say Kap was below Replacement level After that one magical year they got beat by the better Harbaugh)
I never thought much of Kaepernick as a QB. Just not the type of QB I liked. He has a right to protest and the teams have a right not to hire him. Not sure if collusion is an issued but pro leagues have gotten away on cases more solid. I don’t think Kaepernick is entitled to an NFL job. If he were a high performer he would have a job.

When Kap’s gf equates the owner of the team considering hiring him as a slave master, is it a surprise he didn’t get hired?

Agreed. Feel like I’ve felt the wrath of some who immediately would call me racist or respond a bit over the top at the suggestion which is why I ask the question.

If owners had just come out and said, “he is not worth the headache” it may have been more palatable. It wasn’t purely talent. He was good enough to play in the league but not good enough for the headache. It smacked of collusion but that’s a hard case to prove. Athletes get blackballed often. It was really common in the NBA.

Agree. He should be fine.
But he can’t complain about why he’s not in the league when he had a shot to get back in and his gf pooped on it.

Yes, Pete, we must all conform, and follow our government leaders without question. Having different ideas offends you.
We get it, comrade. What did you call your fellow Americans who conform, don't make waves, and follow the government herd? Oh, right---"the normals".
You have a funny idea as to what America is all about, I'll give you that.....Happy 4th!
Isn't it great that Collin saved his remarks for the 4th of July. Make all Americans doubt the kind of country they live in. Good stuff.
Someone should show Collin the streets of Hong Kong where citizens are risking life in prison waving "American" flags in the face of their Chi Com oppressors.
In that article there's a great quote from your Presidential candidate. A guy that's been in power in Washingtonn for nearly 5 decades.
Other prominent figures have used their Fourth of July messages to address racism, including presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. who said the U.S. "never lived up to" the promise that all men are created equal.
“We have a chance to rip the roots of systemic racism out of this country,” Biden said. “We have a chance to live up to the words that founded this nation.”
One of the ironies of American political life is the only systemic racism left in America is overseen by Democratic mayors in urban cities. They won’t even allow school choice because teacher union cash means more to the DNC than solving unequal economic outcomes.
… democratic leaders don't support weakening the public school system so that a bunch of fat cats can provide a service no better than the public school system at a higher price. There is plenty of choice, if you don't like the public school system, you just aren't subsidized by public funds thereby weakening the public school system, so that the kids who remain behind have even worse prospects. Got nothing to do with unions, although the unions realizing their constituents are under attack, strangely support politicians who are not attacking them, and do fight back against politicians who do attack them. Strange, how that works.

Got nothing to do with unions, although the unions realizing their constituents are under attack, strangely support politicians who are not attacking them, and do fight back against politicians who do attack them. Strange, how that works.
A buddy’s wife is a CEO of a charter school organization with over 30 schools. They are getting rich off the backs of taxpayers. I asked him why not just go private and you should see the blank look on his face.
Alex, could I get ‘things that never happened’ for $1,000?
What never happened?

Just allow public school choice for all. See what schools fill up and which ones enrollment drops. Close the empty schools. Expand the successful ones. Charter schools were born out of good intentions, the goal of helping kids, and parents' desire for choice. It ultimately turned into a money grab.
Much like youth club lacrosse.
