I think it was Tom Brady who said something like, "If he can come in our house and beat us, then take his team to the Super Bowl he deserves a shot".

It's completely political. He challenged something that is interwoven into this society. PERIOD.

Dr. Claud Anderson describes a term "Deny and Neglect", which is what a large portion of this city and many others are using. Complete intellectual dishonesty to deny Kaep isn't better than at least half to a quarter of the STARTING QB's.

To cut you off at the pass...

I'm a Veteran, and his kneeling didn't offend me in the least. He never said any disparaging thing concerning the military. While serving I saw many service members run to their car, or stay in the building, or other things we did to avoid saluting the flag. So these Veteran wannabe's and hypocrites can miss me with that dishonesty.

Him not having a job is about ONE thing and ONE thing only: He challenged what is interwoven into this society (which should cause shame to any decent person).

I'll await the mod to come and erase or urge us to not discuss politics which this isn't lol.

I'm sorry, but I'm not buying it.  As I've said repeatedly, if that was the primary factor, some team would have signed him.  Seattle in particular looked at him and decided not to pull the trigger, and if there's any team that would be tolerant of his views, that's the one.  He left without a contract offer to contemplate.

It's not about challenging "what is interwoven into this society".  It's about him simply not being as good as some of you seem to believe he is.  If he was even close to your expert scouting opinions, he'd be on a roster.

At the end of the day, all this Kaepernick love is completely pointless. He's not coming here. You can howl and complain and throw baseless accusations out there until the cows come home, but he'll never be a Jaguar QB. Deal with it.
