Ahem

In re Colin Kapernick:

  • If he doesn't want to stand for the national anthem, that's fine. It's a free country.
  • While it's difficult to suss out exactly what he's trying to say, he's not entirely wrong about police being, at times, too violent.
  • Having said that, I suspect he's more concerned about these things now because he sees his career slipping away and being a jock SJW would be a good gig.
  • Maybe we could get him and Tim Tebow out on a new-fangled muscular Chautauqua circuit, since neither of them are likely to play much football anytime soon.

It must be kinda rough going from super 'star QB' to 'bucket of suck' in such a short time.

I'm currently amused, and saddened, by people apparently comparing him to Rae Carruth. OK, you don't agree with him and don't like him, I get that...but Carruth? Seriously?

And per Gino's comment, I'm consistently amazed by how quickly QBs go from stellar to rotten. It is as if there is a knife edge that you've got to walk to stay, and that edge wobbles with a new coach, offensive scheme, year, whatever.

Holy moly. Seriously, someone made that comparison? That's preposterous.

Figure I'd better provide evidence for that one.
