Something a black friend posted on FB talking about Kaep.
Wanna know what an AMERICAN hero looks like then look no further. No cape, just shoulder pads and an awesome fro. History will shine on him just like Ali. Just like Ali he is hated and vilified in his time, they find a new excuse daily in an attempt to justify his exile, but we all know it's not what he did or how he did it...it's who he did it for and his message. Also to ensure his brothers fall in line. Even if he gets signed eventually, they made their point. I'm disgusted with this league and to those who make him out to be anything less than a real American patriot.
The thing he doesn't get is this isn't about race. It's about cash. Recent surveys proved many folks didn't tune into the NFL last year because of Kaep and his kneeling protest. Why would you sign that person? Why would you, a business owner, intentionally go sign a player that people actively avoid watching and supporting? That's not good business.
In the age of personal brands where LeBron, Jordan, and others are very cautious about what they say about anything because they don't want to hurt their brand, Kaep goes and does something very polarizing. He only has himself to blame for the results. (And while the MSM doesn't remind you, I will, he opted out of his deal in SF. He could still be playing this year.)
As Jordan once said, "Republicans buy shoes too."
In different news,
coach Manziel?
Yeah, who wouldn't want a selfish prick of a human being with addiction and anger issues coaching your kids?
