I normally don't post on the nonsports but I had to weigh in on Kaepernick. The only reason he did any of this was because he was going to be an irrelevant backup NFL QB. He did all to bring attention to himself. Proof: when he decided to go into free agency and a team didn't pick him up he made the comment he wouldn't kneel anymore in protest. Of course he didn't get signed. If he really was doing this for a real cause he would have never agreed to back down. Of course after he didn't get signed he went back and changed his tune again. He is just a former NFL quarterback trying to get attention. What is sad it worked. With politically charged environment we live in he exploited all of these suckers including the idiots at Nike. He is not a martyr. Just a disrespectful punk who feeds on the minds of people who don't want to think for themselves.
