AFTER NATIONAL ANTHEM PROTEST, COLIN KAEPERNICK DREADFUL IN LOSS TO BEARS: “With snow falling, Kaepernick failed to generate anything through the air and had one completion, a 4-yarder to tight end Vance McDonald midway through the second quarter. Kaepernick finished 1-for-5 for 4 yards and ran six times for 20 yards. He was sacked five times for losses equaling 25 yards and finished,” the Chicago Tribune reports. Unlike successful quarterbacks, the retired 49ers’ QB turned SJW waited until after the game to start heaving bombs:
Some in the crowd of 46,622 jeered Kaepernick when he and teammate Eli Harold kneeled during the anthem, something Kaepernick has done before games to protest what he believes are wrongdoings against minorities in the United States.
“I will continue to do it,” Kaepernick said after the game. “There are a lot of issues that still need to be addressed.
“And I do think there is significance in being here (Sunday) seeing it’s the anniversary of the assassination of chairman Fred Hampton,” continued Kaepernick, who was wearing a T-shirt with a photo of Hampton, a leader of the Illinois Black Panther Party who was killed during a raid by Chicago police on Dec. 4, 1969. “Being in Chicago, being able to acknowledge that a black figure, a black leader like him is very important and his role in being a leader in this community and bringing this community together is something that needs to be acknowledged.”
Huh – Colin Kaepernick morphed into Leonard Bernstein so slowly, I hardly even noticed.
