    You most certainly did not answer the question, in fact he lost 10 games and won 1. That's an awful record, but what was his record the year previous? Oh right, he was 2-5 before being benched for a rookie. This isn't about kneeling, its about sucking...

    I'm a Packers fan, so honestly, the Bears doing dumb stuff isn't new or surprising. Culter was a huge mistake, but that doesn't make Kaepernick a better choice. Anyway, Cutler was pulled out of retirement to pass Kaepernick by this year. The NFL is about money, even Mike Vick got a second chance. This all about talent, and using Vick as the example pretty much squashes the race card...

    The Bears have a First Round QA with no one to throw to, thus he had 6 or 7 throws last game. They Won because the defense scored 2 touchdowns.

    Does Colin Kaepernick know what Colin Kaepernick is protesting?

    The problem with his protest is it is not police brutality and whether they are armed or not is inconsequential.

    Police abuse of power is becoming more the rule rather than the exception. This is to be expected as we move closer towards a quazi totalitarian police state. It is always the minority class that first get's hit.

    As we increase police powers more abuse can be expected. Power corrupts and more power corrupts more.

    Ever heard of actually doing some homework on the real statistics ?? Read this "The War on Cops: How the New Attack on Law and Order Makes Everyone Less Safe" - Heather MacDonald - 2017. The narrative that police attack black youths indiscriminately is completely false.

    1) I did not say police attack black youths indiscriminantely. Usually they make up some nonsense excuse .. like "selling cigarettes" abusing (in this case killing) black folk.



    2) Bad law in conjunction with increased police powers that make us less safe and less free. Your pathetic apology for the plague of control freak and bad Cops is duly noted.

    3) My comments on police power and our move towards a quazi totalitarian police state were not restricted to blacks.

    What is hilarious is you defaulting to name calling and demonizing the left for all your troubles because you have no material.

    Getting shot by the cops for refusing to comply with lawful orders is not police brutality.

    Fwiw... I think many people now are protesting in solidarity with kap and in opposition to the attempts to silence him

    Of course we do, he hates America and shows it by disrespecting flag and everyone who has ever fought and died to keep America free so he can make millions of dollars a year playing a child's game for the people's entertainment.

    NFL's TV numbers still sliding; 2017 figures down big from same period in '15

    I hope the kill off Pro Football so we can get something better on TV Sunday's.

    Have you ever heard of statistical inference? YouTube? Are you trying to prove my point that this whole movement is concocted?
