Excellent post. The fuel of Kaepernick's stance in some ways backfired and brought out a lot of people who may have voted otherwise.

They always need an excuse to justify their ********.
If Colin Kaepernick never existed...those same trailer trash rednecks and conservative yuppies would have voted Trump just based off of 8 years of a black president alone.
But nah...a backup QB got ppl out to the polls.

Yes they still exist and they vote whether or not he exists, but don't underestimate or deny his influence in the eyes of some who went to the polls because of what he broadcasted. That's just ignorant.

if you want to think like a simpleton, more power to you
if you don't think Kaepernick's stance fueled low end racists to get to the voting booths than you are just naïve

Well football is America and now that "America is great again" the ratings shouldn't be a problem ...if it's still struggling by the end of the season then the league has a bigger problem than they thought n major changes to the product has to be made

This
Not saying its his fault but its reality. Whatever you like it or not, the perception is his activism is in line with liberalism and WS reacted to it.
Kaeps actions compelled many WS and military personnel to take it out on the booths.
And then Kaeps turns around and tells his followers that he is not voting.
Thats double losses right there.
I am not saying it affected the outcome of the election but a couple of thousands of votes here and there in battleground states makes a HUGE difference.

The core issue is that 90+ percent of the people who voted for Trump were going to vote for whoever was the Republican candidate, not because all of the voters are racists and sexists. Or because Kaep fueled the masses. Just like 90+ percent of liberals voted for Hilary were going to vote for whoever the Democratic candidate was, not because all of the voters are lying corrupt crooks with blood on their hands. If you voted for either you're apart of the problem.

You ****** kill me.
White racism manifests itself through the world of politics as it always has, but sure...let's point the finger at the black athlete and say he "fueled" it. The black guy who called out racism may be "responsible" for a few thousand votes. And then you call him out for not participating in the complete ******** that you believe in called "voting" as if that somehow invalidates his stance.
White people being white people and we wanna sit up here and try to rope Kaep into this.
Get the entire **** outta here. Kaep name shouldn't even be coming up right now.

I get your point. I do. But Kaep's name is coming up because he's a celebrity who happens to play for a billion dollar league which broadcasts a product and service across millions of televisions. Anyone in his position comfortable and sharing his or her views is getting exposure by the media. The media is publishing it. People pick up the article or news and read it and those few seconds of attention may spark some reaction. I just think it's ignorant to think that his stance doesn't draw some kind of response. That's all I'm saying. I'm not saying you are wrong i'm just playing the fence.

a lot of things factored into it, but the fact remains the most motivated block of voters in this election were white voters..
and a lot of screwed up things went into that.. that's how racist work.. sure they might not think they are racist.. but they're tired of hiring the complaints of others and what they are being denied and all that jazz
hell look at the people who criticized what kaep was doing.. they are going to criticize him no matter what he did (hell, look at some of the things sad about the BLM movement.. hell, just look at the things said about that simple phrase).. they just don't want to be inconvenienced by any of it.. cause the reality is, until it actually enters their world it doesn't affect them
any form of a black person or minority speaking up for their rights had an impact on what happened last night, sadly

He gon **** it up.
Whether it's his play, him getting hurt again, the locker room. I'm sure there's players on that team that are good with Dak and keeping this momentum going. Jerry sounds like he can't wait to put his boy back in talking about "playing it by ear" lol. It's kinda f'ed up cuz Dak has played great. He ain't Trent Dilfering or Alex Smithing it... But I'll be right there with my popcorn watching their season go up in flames again.

LOL at Carpenter's wife's back peddling due to all the venom she got on Twitter. Talking about a "lighthearted joke relating to my farm life as a kid", *** knew exactly what she was saying

Hoody actually did something rare today and elaborated on that letter. Apparently he's in the same boat as TB being that he's been friends with dude for a while and he repeteadly made the effort to emphasize that he's not a "political person" which I never really took him as one 
.
He also mentioned that another friend of his, John Kerry, visited the locker room and sideline a few weeks back.
Feeling slightly better about this whole thing...just slightly

How do you feel about Belichick and his support for Trump? I asked @Rolaholic this question and he certainly looks at Belichick in a different light...
