The Australian woman in MN...

Chris Reid from Kid n Play fame is dressed as Kap.

You are correct. And Vick went to jail because he committed s crime whereas CK did not go to jail because he did not commit a crime. So now we are talking about the fallout from someone’s actions. The NFL is not the government and it can chose to not employee people that espouse unpopular but constitutionally…

Shit. I just had a final interview today and told the guy that interviewed me that he reminded me so much of Hans Landa. Hope that doesn’t come back and bite me in the ass.

Holly Shit, why doesn’t anyone see he’s not that good of a QB??? With that, he’s not worth the PR shit that’s going to come with him.

Everyone who sucked before still sucks, but that was indeed an incredibly poorly-timed blast. Could it really not have waited until after the Ravens didn’t sign her bf?

I’m not saying he has to do jack shit. If the perception is that taking a knee and doing so defiantly is what is keeping him from being picked up, then he can stick to his values if he wants. I’m not CK and I don’t have to live with the consequences.

Vick was better than CK and contrite. People will forgive almost anything if you apologize and doubly so if you are good at football. Also, It wasn’t smooth for Vick. He and the Eagles took a huge amount of slack for signing Vick who got protested on the regular. I know people who cancelled tickets and wouldn’t…

Voting has never been ‘easy’ in that it always happens during work hours, on a weekday, and only at select locations. It is actually easier to vote now that decades past. In fact, the lowest voting deomographic are traditional Republican voters, doctors, lawyers, upper-middle class people, who can’t get away from…

i mean lesean mccoy probably knows more about football than anyone on deadspin and he said kap is just not that good. i think he even added how much better he thought vick was than kap when he played with vick in philly when vick got his second chance and explained that is why vick got a second chance and kap hasn’t…

It’s a confluence of the drama surrounding him, the fact that a team would be taking on this drama for a backup, the fact that Kaep is almost certainly asking at least $5m plus, and the fact that he’s not that good. To argue that his projected performance has nothing at all to do with the situation he’s in is utterly…

I find it more than a tad disingenuous for the author and Deadspin in particular to act like they aren’t campaigning to get Kaep a job. Because...it’s pretty plain by the endless posting of crappy QB signings and referencing Kaep that’s exactly what you’re doing. Of course he should have a job, but if you want NFL…

It has a lot to do with performance. Aren’t owners supposed to hire TALENT? Name ANY team that could ride to the Superbowl with Kapernick. I’m not talking Kapernick of 2012, Kapernick of today. He just doesn’t have the same stuff. He bottomed out. Did you guys raise a stink when Tim Tebow found himself out of a job? I…

And they sure as shit don’t want that in a fourth-string QB. No one’s signing anyone of Kaepernick celebrity/notoriety to Joe Webb’s roster spot.

I’m not disagreeing with you. I think Kaep has been blacklisted for starter QB positions, and there are worse starting QBs out there than him. But with this guy, whoever the hell he is, and Osweiler in Denver, and others, we’re talking about people who are getting paid league minimum to (as far as their teams are…

Chris, anybody with half a brain knows it’s about a combination of baggage and being slightly above average..either side wants to make it all about one or the other, but it’s both.

I think that one of the issues with Kaepernick is that he is looking for starter money, as has been reported by a few people with sources in several front offices. Kaepernick sees himself as a starter and wants that kind of contract. I think Kaepernick has regressed since his 2012 season. I am not saying he is the…

Is it politics or his desire of being paid as a top 10 qb to play 2nd string ( seattle )

NFL teams do not want Kaepernick. They don’t want the distraction. They don’t want the baggage. They don’t want his activism. They don’t want his divisiveness. He’s not welcome. No amount of pissing and moaning is going to change that.

Maybe I’m nitpicking, especially considering she’s guilty of cultural appropriation. I just feel like considering the Kardashian family’s cultural appropriation using a rumor of plastic surgery is weak tea.
