Who would hire a qb that can't play? Makes no sense. It sucks he can't find a job as a clerk somewhere though. Maybe an office assistant fetching files and coffee? Someone should check into that make sure he isn't being marginalized.

 

Dunkin Donuts would hire him

I'm gonna have to disagree on this one. I'm 2016, Colin put up some decent numbers. In 11starts he threw 16 TDs and 4 picks. He ran for 468 yards with a 90.7 QB rating.  that rating puts him ahead of Eli and Rivers for the year. This was on a dumpster fire team with its coach with one foot out the door and another on a banana peel.

 

Taylor and Kaepernick both stink.      You go too far when you vouch for bums.

:blink:.... Cosby was defended for decades

 

I have friends who think he’s innocent and he was set up.          

 

Because he’s black ?

You know why Kaepernick isn't in the NFL right now?

 

Because his girlfriend couldn't shut her race-baitingh piehole long enough for the deal to be made.

 

Period.

Jimmy Kimmel must be looking over his shoulder given the attacks he rolls out on a nightly basis aimed at the current POTUS.  (Oh, but wait, Trump is a Republican.)

 

You do realize that if Roseanne called Condi Rice a cross between the Muslim Brotherhood and Planet of the Apes, she'd get a public slap on the wrist and private congratulations?

They both suffer from the same problem of "option QBs that can't throw over the middle, and being mobile doesn't make up for that."  

 

People tell me "Kaepernick's great!" and show me highlights, two-thirds of which are him running from pressure because he held the ball too long because he won't throw over the middle.

Most people probably have no clue who Condi Rice is

When ABC execs greenlit the “Roseanne” reboot, they did so knowing full well that Roseanne is a ticking time bomb and it was only a matter of time before she said something awful. This week, she did just that when she referred to Valerie Jarrett as the lovechild of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Planet of the Apes. Not only did she lose her show, but she’s essentially cemented her status as a Hollywood pariah. The same celebrities who indulged her unhinged ravings when conservatives and conservative causes were her targets suddenly want nothing to do with her because she went after Valerie Jarrett.

 

And you know what? The Roseanne cluster says even more about Hollywood than it does about her:

ABC was justified in firing Roseanne. I also believe they have no moral high ground for hiring that nutter in the first place. I also think it's funny that Hollywood is more comfortable with rapists than bigots. Confirms that, for the left, thought crime is the biggest sin.

 

 
 The Hollywood Left will tolerate or bury sexual predation, but vile words directed at liberals? That’s a bridge too far.

When anyone tells you that media bias is a conservative fantasy, send them this headline.

Of course .........................now there has been countless apologies and retractions, because that's allowed when a liberal "mis-speaks"

Samantha Bee called Ivanka Trump a vulgar word. Conservatives and the White House aren’t happy. https://wapo.st/2L735dB

I know what she did was pretty ridiculous, but you're lying if you aren't enjoying the strength of this leftist meltdown. There is no way I thought we'd see it so often, on such a grand scale, for as long as it's lasted.

 

It's beautiful. Trump should be well into his second term before they finally realize how badly they've FUBAR'ed things for their party.

What Barr said was bad and it deserved the consequences it got, but if you wanna play the "firing game".............

 

Why does Samantha Bee still have a job? What Bee said about Ivanka is much worse than what Barr said. I guess it is ok to use the C word to a conservative female, especially Trump's daughter.

 

Using the C word to a woman is much worse than saying the N word to a black person............. to womanhood anyways.

 

The hypocrisy on the left is downright astounding. Truly, truly disgusting.

ABC wanted to avoid the public backlash they would have received had they not fired Barr. What she said was racist (whether or not she is actually a racist herself) and deeply offensive to many people. That obviously reflects on them as a network, and they stand to lose a lot of revenue if viewers decide to boycott. I think most agree that ABC was well within their right to react as they did.

 

TBS will do the same if they begin to believe that Bee's comments will draw the same kind of reaction, but there is a significant difference between the two controversies: Barr put hers out there as a late-night tweet, from home, acting strictly on her own. Bee's comments were part of a TV show, and as a result may have a degree of insulation from fallout (maybe DR or others here have better insight into this) - the controversy may even generate a spike in Bee's ratings (sad as that may be).

 

Something else I think is worth consideration is the fact that profanity and classlessness is one thing, while racism (real or perceived) is quite another. Many people can handle the controversies they may generate by using edgy or profane language, but people (especially white people) treat accusations of racism like kryptonite or leprosy. They can't get out of its way fast enough, and many will instantly turn on their peers over it if helps to insulate themselves from similar accusations.

Because the party of Tiberius/gator/baskin believes that the message was right, even though maybe the word was wrong.

 

They piss their pants when Trump refers to MS-13 as animals, but calling the president's daughter a c**t, and suggesting she get some incest going with him, is perfectly acceptable because it's more important to defend MS-13 gang members than it is to defend the president's daughter.

 

There's your mid-term message.

 

Best meltdown ever keeps moving along.

Things that make you go, "Hummmm..."

 

 

Did Michelle Obama successfully lobby ABC TV’s president to fire Roseanne?
by Peter Barry Chowka

 

Original Article

 

 

 

There are many angles to the this week’s Roseanne Barr controversy, but this one caught my attention: On Tuesday afternoon, about twelve hours after Roseanne tweeted and quickly deleted her comments about Valerie Jarrett that almost instantly eviscerated her TV career, a Twitter user name Josh Cornett tweeted this: BREAKING: According to sources ABC President Channing Dungey had a long conversation via phone with former First Lady Michelle Obama before deciding to cancel the Roseanne show. Michelle Obama was reportedly enraged and insisted an apology was inadequate......

 

 

 

Again .....................what she tweeted was stupid and unnecessarily degrading, 

 

but note, it was more important WHO she said it about...............than WHAT she said.
