All the dog whistle vitriol against Kaepernick has been renewed only because Kap and Geragos just got the NFL and Goodell to kneel and suck. The NFL clearly decided the price was right to keep a lid on their racist collusion (or risk of it being found if the case had proceeded).
And how stupid was the NFL? Kaep was already about washed-up as an NFL passer and starting QB and if the NFL had just not overreacted to Kaep's protests, they could've actually for once not billionaire-derped the moment, while naturally egged on by the right-wing outrage spewers. (/no CR). And then of course there's the little fact rarely thought about, which is that the NFL is usually about 65%-70% black each season in its player demographics. The NFL would be wise to sponsor an annual in-season Black History month. But instead it's just all about White Billionaires and their Yachts and their Cheesy Massage Parlor handies by trafficked sex slaves and threads started by Surly ***NFL Correspondent*** Mic Vackey.
Imagine the NFL coming out when Kaep started with a statement that said "We respect our players' expression of protest regarding issues in society. However, we are disappointed the protest occurs while in the wearing of an NFL uniform, when one's focus professionally and personally should solely be on their team and the game they are about to play."
