    Kevin Martin is more well respected in Houston after the harden trade than Kaepernick!

    Kaepernick biggest mistake was letting jay z negotiate nfl contracts.

    Jay z and nfl contract negotiations was a domino leading to catastrophy.

    Seriously? Just because he’s not condemning Brees he hates minorities?

    this is a big problem with our debates. Everything has to be absolute and there is no room for understanding nuance..

    The extreme right has bastardized nuance since Trump took office. Theyve adopted these dog whistling tactics that are getting more and more brazen as the days go by. I was taking a "wait and see" approach to Trump until I heard his son use the word shekel on live TV referring to a Jewish man. I had to Google the word. That, to me, was clearly a xenophobic dog whistle. They say something racist and then they backtrack and say that the left takes things too seriously.

    Even this wouldn't be a problem if it it didn't actually embolden real right wing nut jobs to go out and commit atrocities like the cop who killed Floyd. Everyone's tired of the act. Clearly.

    Cam Newton is still better

    what team would pick him up? Not Houston

    Kap got hit too much and he got concussion.

    Kap avoids national anthem because he can't remember words due to head injury.

    Cam won the MVP and is a more accurate thrower

    in 2016 Kap had a 59% completion rate, his last season
    while Cam had a 68% completion rate , his last full season
