Tim Tebow?? He of the shotput throwing motion? The one that takes 15 seconds to unfold? Nah.... He was given his breaks. Now he's off playing baseball.

Johnny "I'm Sorry" Manziel?? The guy's been given more breaks than a 2-foot pretzel and he still doesn't get it that he can't be a lawless moron and still play in the NFL. Besides, being good in college doesn't always carry into the NFL.

Yes, Colin IS different. For starters, he led his team to the Super Bowl after the 2012 season. How many Super Bowls have Tebow and Manziel led their teams to? I'll wait.........






Yes, I get it. Colin represents the black resentment toward racism that you and Brock despise so much. That doesn't mean he's not entitled to his opinion, or to express given opinion. Or..... is that only reserved for marching KKK and White Supremacists groups? Kaepernick has done nothing..... I repeat..... NOTHING wrong. You, me, and the rest of civilization know that he's being held out of the NFL for his protests. No other reason.
Tito,


Would you calm down for just a second? Just take out the name, take out the emotion, take out everything but the FACTS and really think this through.

Tim Tebow was not a Pro style QB he simply wasn't. However, dude took a 1-4 Broncos team to the Playoffs, a lot of that had to do with their defense but Tebow was the QB and they get credit for winning just like they get blame for losing. So say what you will, Tebow was a WINNER. And allow me to post this here from his Wikipedia: Despite his success with the Broncos—he compiled a record of 8–6 as a starting quarterback and led the team to the playoffs and a playoff win (after they started 1-4)—he did not start again in the NFL. No other quarterback under 30 in NFL history has won a playoff game and then never started another NFL game.....was THAT racism? was THAT bigotry? was THAT called out ever? NO! Given breaks my ass, he never started again, NEVER AGAIN!!!!! But he didn't whine or complain or bitch on social media, he wasn't a victim about it, he just moved on.

Johnny Manziel another NOT Pro style QB. He was given 1 opportunity, 1.....to play in Cleveland and he had off the field issues and also that entire team sucked but even if there were better players around him his off the field issues made his situation untenable in Cleveland or elsewhere.


Now, as for Colin Kaepernick, 2012....that was his Super Bowl year where he started out as a backup/wildcat QB, Alex Smith goes down with a concussion and Colin got thrown in and he did very well I'm not going to lie, the stats show he did very very well (aided by a great running game and defense, but still credit where credit is due). 2013 he had a STELLAR year and in return the 49ers gave him a 6 year extension. HOWEVER once Jim Harbaugh left Colin Kaepernick didn't do so hot. Record under Jim Harbaugh 25-14 and after Harbaugh he's 3-16. In 2015 Kaep was benched for Blaine Gabbart (a younger more pure throwing Pro style QB albeit IMO not a "better" QB just a different one), Kaep eventually injured his shoulder and missed the rest of the season following week 10. After Jim Tomsula was fired in comes Chip Kelly (after a torrid time in Philly where he was called racist by some of the players whom he benched or traded) and of course there's turmoil in comes a new coach with a different offensive scheme, it's not uncommon to want to get "Your Guy" in at QB and apparently learning nothing from his time at Philly Chip Kelly gets the team to go 2-14 and was fired....now after THAT you figure "Well hey, maybe the 49ers will hire somebody to use Kaep to run their offense"......aaaaaand that's when Colin Kaepernick opted out of his deal because the 49ers were going to cut him because a QB that has gone 3-16 since the Harbaugh era ain't worth the kind of money they were giving him.


You didn't answer my question @TitoFan Where would he start? Who should sign him?


Nobody is begrudging anything Colin Kaepernick is saying or doing, there are plenty of players kneeling for the Anthem now, they're all still on teams. The entire St. Louis Rams team came out with the "Hands Up Don't Shoot" horseshit those guys are still playing even though they perpetuated a LIE. Tito, you've also failed to respond to Ray Lewis attempting to get the Ravens to sign Kaepernick but because Colin Kaepernick's girlfriend posted this....




....yeah, THAT is what she put out there and then the Ravens Owner said basically 'No, I'm not going to sign somebody who has a girlfriend posting that kind of shit about the Ravens greatest player, it's not worth the trouble'




Colin Kaepernick is free to say and do and post whatever he likes, but NFL teams don't HAVE to sign him, it's a privilege to get paid to play football, it's a privilege to have a job....you try pulling shit like that which irritates your boss and see what the hell happens and it doesn't help when you're very recently 3-16....Girlfriend who can't keep her trap shut, 3-16, very outspoken on racial issues to the point where he's comparing the Police with Runaway Slave Patrols....yeah, not helpful. If he really wants to make a difference perhaps he should run for office instead of first downs.
