I called it early in this thread he was a fan of HC....they saying Nessa and him ain't together anymore but she's a pretty big Tariq fan. Pretty damn sure she put him on

Also Kaep started becoming more woke last season from what I noticed. Also how he answered those questions and kept it on topic is such a Tariq influence. Probably the only guy out here mainstream who preaches to keep it all facts and don't react too emotional. Says that's what the white supremacist want :yeshrug:Kaep answered those questions with so much precision.....worded perfectly :wow:...he might miss targets on the field but he hit them that day :lolbron:

If anyone watches Total Acess on NFL Network I just want to know if had the same reaction or thought when the army kicker was talking.

Like, Did he say he would hope on Sunday Colin will stand up and realize that racism/the situation isn't that bad.

I want to make sure I heard that right.

Basically Cam said

• It's not his place to say if how Colin is protesting is right or wrong because it's a personal decision for him.

•He said he can't understand how 1/8ths of an in. (Skin) can determine so much when we're the same underneath.

•He said there is always an issues when athletes acknowledge anything when it comes to rest.

•He said the things that we have done/gone through has been a disgrace. (Interpret that as you will)

• I believe the last point he made was in order for us to work on the issues we're going to have to listen and love one another.

He might have said more but that's what came out of the preview.

Kap gets money off that, too. Right now, it's the only way to directly support him monetarily.
yep

players get a % of merchandise sold in all sports

with that said I'm definitely getting a jersey if he isn't cut. If he is hopefully they don't dry up

kinda wild it took this late for it to blow up...usually media folks be on it or a player would leak it out. Most of the team must be behind him :obama:

Naw the media folks been watching this shyt and following his Twitter.

Only when he starting not standing they began to push the issue.

Mahmoud Abdul Rauf mentioned that the media began following him more carefully when he became a Muslim. Actually they noticed for awhile that he was not standing for the anthem. But what he was doing was pretending to stretch and or practice shooting.

But one day he just stood there and then the media folks started to go back retroactively and add up all the games he did not stand for the anthem.

Media folks always and I mean always know what these dudes are doing. They hold this shyt in their back pocket until the time is right. Same with teams when they leak info with players when they cut or trade them.

We can also look at Brandon Roy who would stand in the tunnel during the anthem. One writer was keeping this in his back pocket for months. He then wrote an article about it but it never picked up steam. Then months later ESPN.com took that same article and re-released it and it began to pick up steam but that week Tiger had the car wreck and the story was dead.
