| Kaepernick Will Stand For Anthem If He Gets Back In The NFL |
| 2017-10-08 |
| I'm pretty sure that ship has already sailed... As we detailed earlier, in a stunning capitulation from one of the most controversial sports figures in recent memory, former San Francisco 49ers backup QB Colin Kaepernick told CBS Sports that he would stand during the national anthem if given the chance to play football again. Kaepernick, who has been training rigorously in New Jersey in an effort to re-enter league play after severing his contract with the 49ers in March, said he would not kneel for the anthem if he signs with a team. He also said he plans to donate the money from his jersey sales to charity. "He's not planning on kneeling - if given the opportunity," said Jason La Canfora, who sat down with Kaepernick for an interview. |

| #8 apparently this story went ....fail. "Reporter" now says "nevermind". Hard to see how that squares with his reporting? |

| #5 Just think, when we bankrupt the corrupt NFL, we may get two or even three better Leagues. We have nothing to lose as well. Because nothing is there. |

| #3 ESAD you jackass! The tradgedy is that you are too stupid to see what your race-grifter girlfriend got you into. The even greater revelation was how many ungrateful black athletes in the NFL were equally dumb in following your lead and deeply damaging the game. Nothing will undo the damage but time and the financial collapse for many teams unless the salary cuts for pampered little sh*ts are deep and lasting. The only benefit is you publicly humiliated by folding ....and god help the team that takes pity on you! |
