Sacrifice? :russ: That nikka got paid millions and in turn shut the hell up. You're all he wanted was lost wages?

You don't settler with an NDA included if you really with the shyts as ya'll claim he is.

Kaep’s fight wasn’t with the nfl

He was taking a stand against police brutality

You talk as if Kaep was protesting the league

You act like he was super vocal before the check. He wasn't on a media tour prior to the settlement. When he talked it was after games.

His entire movement.

Then he tried to get hired back on an NFL team again

His issue with Jay z isn't making sense to me.

I could see it being an issue for fans, hiphoppers and the conscious community but he took the check and tried to get hired again.

He didn't see it through to the end.

Why is he talking about what Jay z is doing with the NFL ?
He didn't sell out any movement.

Stop making it seem like it's all the same. They're football players, they need to make their income somehow in their profession. Jay-Z didn't need to do any of this shyt.

And why not? He’s in the music business right? The super bowl half time show is a huge platform, correct?

What isn't making sense?

Colin Kaepernick's chosen profession is playing professional football. That is what he has chosen and worked towards doing to make a living for himself.

There is only one employer in the United States at which Kap can practice his craft, and he is being denied the opportunity to do so because of his political views. He didn't violate any league rules. (This is obviously excluding the New XFL, which has already announced rules inspired to prevent Kap's protest )

He's still trying to play in the NFL because that's the only fukking league. That's the best way for him to make a living for himself.

Jay-Z's primary chosen professions are celebrity husband and rapper. He also has a robust portfolio of other income streams that have proven to be quite lucrative for him. So much so that he is now a billionaire.

The issue Kap likely has, is that Jay Z has been very vocal and supportive towards Kap's cause. His wife even made a rare public appearance to present him with the SI Sportsman of the Year Award. Even gave a speech phrasing him.

Jay Z has also been very critical about black people not supporting his streaming service Tidal, and suggested that corporate racism has hurt his company from gaining success.

So.... To see Jay Z sign a deal with the NFL, which is NOT his chosen profession or primary source of income, as well as a company that Kap is at odds with because of racially motivated mistreatment, all while Jay has been complaining about racially motivated mistreatment in the music streaming business, appears to strike a nerve.

I see why Kap's mad.

He sued and in the end it was about getting a settlement instead of a true judgement. Business as usual. Doesn't need an opinion on Jay z business
He sued because they blackballed HIM and stopped HIM from making a living. He didn't sue on behalf of the movement.
