Trump tantrums and Trump inspired tantrums have consequences. Thank goodness.

Wow, $60 million? I thought it wasn't about the money? Will he be giving 90% to social activism?

This is why playing the race card and being a victim is such a big business in America, he earned more by kneeling than he ever did playing.
Ha, so the Trumpie "business man" who stopped selling NIKE is out of biz, but this dude is making massive $$$ for not playing foosball.

This is the very definition of intelligence. Trump sued and threatened suit against thousands when he was in biz....but never won anything decent that I have heard.

No it isn't. All the same it was said he should go to the police academy to find out what it's like to be a police officer. One does not need to do that. We have plenty of examples. One of which I noted.

He was a crappy player. So he played the race card and won. No big mystery.

Didn't he make nearly $20M a year? And he has been functionally blacklisted for 3 years. Thats about correct.

Let me see. Kaepernick made his point. Kept his integrity. Brain is still in good shape.

Sounds like he made out okay on the deal.

Why does one have to become a police officer or give millions away to understand how wrong this is?

No, it's about him protesting a whole bunch of black people getting killed by police officers under mysterious conditions, and sometimes just outright murdered. Protesting the way an Ex Green Beret thought was appropriate, and also in a manner football players take a break. You know, take a knee.

And then the hyper competitive NFL chose to employ slugs like Nathan Peterman, because he gives the Bills the best chance to win, rather than Kapernick. You know that, right?
