Too bad Lewis didn't murder Kaepernick.

Seems like a harsh thing to do to someone for kneeling

2) He isn't "voicing" his opinion on the sideline. It is a silent protest. He is not doing anything that violates a team rule or the CBA.

1) This remains to be seen during the course of discovery.

Which backup job was he attempting to get? He didn't opt out of his 49ers contract to go be a backup somewhere. He thought he was going to get a starting gig. When that didn't materialize, his agent put out feelers that he would accept a backup job. He overestimated his own value. So then the Seahawks and Ravens started to test the waters. As was already pointed out, his girlfriend called the Ravens owner a racist and a slave owner and called Ray Lewis an "Uncle Tom." He muddied the waters and then tried to play nice afterward. At that point, it wasn't salvageable.

And putting all that aside, who really wants this circus for a BACKUP QUARTERBACK? Not even the starter.

None of this requires collusion. That's what really gets me. None of the owners had to call each other or sit down in a room and agree not to sign him. No one wants to deal with this nonsense.

Oh **** off. Go back to drinking and watching fox and friends....moron.

seems pretty dumb and a waste of a lot of money he probably could use to support his currently unemployed lifestyle instead

I don't know. Someone made the claim he turned down some backup jobs. I was wondering which ones. I was not aware that there was a pending offer from someone.

To people who say he is a backup at best. There is no way he is worse than the Jags and Browns starting QB's.

Oh but he most certainly is voicing his opinion when he kneels. He went out and stated his reasoning for doing it. So every time that he knelt, he was repeating that statement in his actions. His actions are his voice. Don't try to change that because he isn't vocally saying it on the sideline. But I believe that I have seen the NFL policy on player conduct during the anthem. I haven't verified to see if that policy actually exists. But assuming that it does, the policy that I saw posted says that players are to be standing with their hand on their chest. He would definitely be in violation of that.

Right. But it's not a new development.

Weeden Cassel and Hogan had jobs last year too. All while there is some schlub on his couch that put up 500 yards at Nowhereville A&M would be better. This is not evidence. This condition existed before Kaepernick.

Well said

Some court will give it to him as a severance package. I have no problem with it, their are tons of worse lawsuits out there than this one, by far.

Maybe he should add Ray Rice and they can make it a class-action lawsuit. :shrug:

Kaep has some support, Ray Rice would hurt his case associating with him given the video/backlash.

Kap's angling for a settlement. It's the only thing that makes sense.
Gonna be tough to actually prove collusion unless teams were really careless, and even then you'd have to show teams conspiring with one another in hard copy form.
Good luck with that.

Meh. Kaep sucks as well. Cassel at least doesn't poison the team outside his suckitude. Hogan might still be a work in progress?

When Kaep stopped working on his game and believed the hype, then gave more effort to the kneeling stuff, he blew up his opportunity.
