T-Bomb Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) I actually agree with McCoy, but he should not have picked Vick to use in his analogy. If he would have said if Russell Wilson was the one who started the protesting, his team/owner probably would have put up with the flames because he is a great player and helps the team win, but because it's Kap, who is a backup at best, why would teams bring that dumpster fire on to their team to be a backup QB, one who is not going to help them win games?

KDIGGZ Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 They asked and he answered,if you don't like the answer then don't ask the question. At least he had the guts to be honest and I agree......Krap sucks thats why he's not playing football. Once his crazy contract demands come back to earth I could see some team taking a flyer on him for 1 or 2m per year next year. I thought it was funny that people were in front of the NFL headquarters demanding Kaep be on a team. As if they are going to force a team to sign him and pay his high price when he isn't any good. I guess teams are religiously biased because Tebow isn't on a team. Would these same people demonstrate for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I am 100% certain that Shady doesn't give a damn about any criticism he receives for his Kaep comments. The man's candor is refreshing, and he is without a doubt my favorite current Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwood for Wall of Fame Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Kaep was dumb to alienate half of the fan base by doing what he did with the anthem but he was mortally stupid to wear the Castro tee shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't he asked specifically about Vick by one of the reporters? I haven't watched or listened to it yet but at least one of the articles I read made it sound as if that was the case.

8-8 Forever? Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) kap doesn't seem to be able to play very effectively any more, that is the final rule in the NFL, and he brings too much baggage to even be a backup. he basically screwed himself. whatever, the guy made a boatload of dough so he just needs to go away and fly his private jets to protest sites for the duration...

The question he was asked was about National Anthem protests in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Shady is right. He said what a lot of people are thinking. Kaep isn't good enough for the circus that comes with him. He absolutley is a top 40 QB in the world but if a team isn't planning on starting him there's a lot of unnecessary attention for a backup. It puts pressure on everyone.

KellyToughII Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I mean, overall I agree with what Shady had to say about why Kaepernick doesn't have a team anymore. I must say though I was shocked by how brutal and blunt he was being. It seems Kaep has quite the race charged following right now and they've got their focus on McCoy. Wouldn't be surprised to see some more drama come from this. Sure he is, he wont' follow the Media and radicals led Narrative. He told the truth. Kaep created a real crap storm pissing on the national anthem, problem is two fold in he sucks as a QB. Shady is spot on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would these same people demonstrate for that? Bingo. The NFL's response to that was what I would've said - it's up to the teams to sign him, not us. Teams aren't signing Kaepernick because of a combination of him not playing well over the past few years and the distractions that come with his protests. In no way am I suggesting his cause isn't legitimate, but stuff like what he's doing just seems to be an attention-grabber. Someone made the point that he started doing this after he lost his starting job...it seems to me that he's just trying to get himself back in the headlines.

Captain_Quint Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) Can someone post the comments or interview? Nevermind, just watched it. And he makes a good point. If teams thought Keap was a starter, he'd be on a roster. You could tell he was looking for the right words, but it sounded like there was a grown man barking in the background. Hard to concentrate with that going on. Edited August 25, 2017 by Captain_Quint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Man, I'm sick of WGR preaching on this topic. If the dude was Tom Brady, he'd have a job. He's not. So he doesn't. Period. He made the decision to stick out his neck, no one else. There's no conspiracy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Glad McCoy spoke his mind. Specifically speaking, I appreciate him discussing the platform for addressing social change. You don't talk religion at the dinner table. Keep and followers should take a note from Anquan Boldin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Hey, don't forget about RG III! Younger than Kaep, and I thought he actually looked pretty healthy at the end of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
