Any 49'ers fans here at the 'Fire? Kaepernick refused to stand for the National Anthem at their preseason game yesterday against the Packers.
His explanation: "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. "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."
Forget that he played like crap last night and looked like a rookie out there, but this will get him a one-way ticket to the waiver wire and no chance of getting on a roster or having a career after football. What an idiot.
Huh, coming from a fellow that has to be in a position to make millions that is somewhat ironic, given his ancestry.
