Kaepernick sits during national anthem

[MichaelWinicki]

On a night that was supposed to be significant for what 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick did on the field, what he didn’t do while off the field will create even bigger headlines.

During the playing of the national anthem, Kaepernick sat.

He's just practicing his sitting for the upcoming season

Deplorable.

Hopefully this piece of garbage never steps onto a football field again. Sad how they treat people of color, now excuse me while I get into my Maserati and drive home to my 4 million dollar house.

Good to know. I'll make sure I root against him even more than I already do. Glad he's been garbage for 2 years now

Kaepernick makes me wish I had more middle fingers.

Americans make too big a deal of the national anthem. Youse lads need to relax.

I heard they are starting a new football league somewhere in the middle east, he{looks} like he would fit right in.

Although I don't agree with his decision to sit during the national anthem, I respect his right to do so. To be continued at the political forim....

 

[CowboyChris]

best thing to do is ignore him, thats what he wants is attention.

Pretty much this. I don't see this being a big deal. He's still getting paid by the NFL though so if they have a problem with it, its up to them.

Where do you call home?

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people and people of color," Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game against Green Bay. "To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."

isn't standing on the sidelines watching the starter because you suck at your job paid leave?

He's got every right to feel the way he does. But he represents his team in that scenario in my opinion. Either be a leader and sit collectively as a team or stand collectively.

I honestly think he's pouting about not being traded and starting more than anything else and just needs an excuse to be the ****** he's shown himself to be.

Sorry, didn't go back to your profile.....understandable now!

Oh, well if Colin feels that way it must be true.

 

[erod]

Doesn't matter. He's in San Francisco, which isn't in the United States anymore anyway.
