Kap making a business decision man he made so much more money not playing in the NFL 😂 I can’t blame him for not wanting to go back let’s be real he definitely had chances
All those things could be true at once: imagine the press for the one team that didn’t show? Just because they organized the event doesn’t mean they actually wanted him Back. They could have just wanted the good press or for some legal reasons. And Kap might or might not want it anymore. We’ll never know
He knows that he won't get a big contract in the NFL, those days are gone. So, he knows it's more profitable if he goes out, throws the ball around for a team to get some attention, then go on some podcasts.
@@rdalge Maybe so, but if he really wanted to play, he could've gone out there and put on a great performance. That would've put some pressure on teams to answer why they wouldn't sign him.
What about the context of the ravens were going to sign him before Nessa went on a Twitter and compared ray lewis to Samuel L's character from Django Unchained.
But didn’t take advantage of his second chance. I don’t think he was thinking instead he probably thought it’s going to go his way again but it backfired.
They didn't have to do that. It's their league. You come in like every one else. When you interview for a job do they come to you or do you go to them. He was already in the league. Let's be real, he was fast becoming a 2nd or 3rd tier QB. He was not at the top of his game.
Steve knew what the owner wanted he knew Kaepernick was going to be blackball so he played the card to get points with the owner of ESPN and NFL look how his career blowup and he continues to stay the course for his owners
I remember Stephan A once asking why Nike made sleeveless hoodies for the players to wear when they were warming up. Said it would remind the fans of Treyvon Martin. That's the day I lost all respect for him.
You never supported CK7 until you found out that war veteran is the one that suggested CK7 kneel during the National Anthem, because that’s how they honor their fallen soldiers instead of sitting on the bench with his back to the flag. 💯Facts💯
He needs to stop talking about that sham of a workout he don't mention the demands they put on Kaepernick. Unlike Steven A Smith money or playing was not enough for Kaepernick to sale his soul
Im not even a Stephen a smith fan but I don’t think he made a mistake , kap is a idiot. He compared nfl to slavery and calling my man ray lewis a Uncle Tom when Ray tried to get him a contract for the ravens. He did that shit to himself .
He Said multiple times he deserved a job.... He got 26 shots and Denied them all because he wanted a job and not an interview with the excuse that it was a saturday..... He can go to McDonald's
What I’m about to say is a waste of time lol but I will never in any circle say anything good about this dude he is such a front runner. And based on how he spoke concerning Kap tells me more about his character and he still won’t admit he is dead wrong SMH 🤦🏾♂️
@Pastor Victor exactly! He’s such a narcissist, he will not admit that he was wrong especially speaking on the situation.. This clown is continued being told that if a team wanted Kap, they bring players in on Tuesday.. Plus, the contract was bogus and every sane person knows the workout was a sham and only for optics.. Then this joker goes on twitter and makes a video about Kaep not wanting to play! He did their bidding and it blew up in his face
I support him kneeling, there were no rules against it at the time. The reality as an NFL though is you do not create distractions or controversy regardless of whether you are in the right or wrong. If you’re going to do that then you better damn make sure you and the team is successful. Go be an activist in the offseason on your own time
As a Jet fab for 36 years, if the Jets give him a contract to play football, I will burn all my Jets stuff. We do not need to have him get the chance to push his crap on us again. Go Jets. No Kapernick.😢
Maybe it was a show, but the reality is that 26 teams showed up. He tried to play by his own rules, and he STILL hasn't been picked up by anyone. So, he essentially played himself in that situation.
I’m a huge 9ers fan and I loved watching Kap play but even I knew then he was a flash in the pan. He was inaccurate, couldn’t read a defense, and was too run focused. I don’t think he did anything wrong but even if he didn’t kneel he would still have been out of the nfl in 5 years
Stephen A was one of the suckas tryna ask him what was his purpose around kneeling...he kind of help with the bs rhetoric about Colin Kap. once the world became more understanding about Kap that's when the narrative shifted about what he was doing ..but he was out the league for 4 years at that time...
Basically Colin wanted to get back in the league on his own terms, instead of follow their instruction. That’s not going to work, especially when you aren’t that good anyway.

kap asked a veteran how he he could honor veterans/Americans and still make a point for police brutality and he said take a knee. smh everyone forgot this smh.
And the consequences of that action was being ostracized from the NFL. Actions have consequences, even when the original action wasn’t “illegal” “wrong” or any other adjective you can put. Let’s also be real for a second… cap only started his crusade when his starting job was in major question, he even lost the job because he majorly fell off. So he just had to find a way to keep the spotlight on himself… which he did a great job doing that
Yes Stephen A Smith you're absolutely right the NFL wanted and had a tryout for one individual player then tried to force him to sign a contract that said he would not kneel if you got back in the NFL so leave out half the story it's not stress the other half
@@mikerod9555 at the time of the kneeling or after because I’m sure you know plenty can be named lol from Drew Brees to Aaron Rodgers the list can get pretty long if we go past QB. I’m all for Kap but he was declining , everybody brings up that Super Bowl appearance but when you have a Top 4 rushing offense and a number 1 defense before Kap even stepped on the field … any QB would’ve succeeded…. As the run game and defense declined his play declined because the team never really relied on him. I’m a Denver fan and I wish he had come to Denver in 2016 when we requested the Trade , but he didn’t want to take a Pay Cut despite Denver being the defending SB champs with the Number 1 defense we wouldn’t have needed him to do much and he would’ve probably been right back in the SB because we still went 9-7 that year with ZERO QB Peyton had retired
@@ATHTSupply great points. Impressive.. Kap definitely didn’t help his declining stats and spending all the media time away from the team and working out showed.

Crazy team, then yall got Manning lol 🔥 bunch of dirty birds and new Bronco kits back then 🍻
@@ATHTSupply yes this is basically my point. Despite the kneeling or not he’s done now. It’s a natural decline. I don’t think he can even play on a Jameis Winston Level. He’s not even a teddy bridgewater at this point.
I remember him taking his team to the SB and breaking the single game rushing record in a game for a QB so he wasn’t that good 😂😂 please stop the Cap.

All these money/contracts comments, what about what his values were. Does everyone expect everyone else to side with them. Lke we should all be one religion one music one a dress code. Be real. I remember as a kid i didn't understand why people hated Muhammad Ali,. He was the heavyweight champion. Wasnt until i learned his history, i didn't see him as a traitor i believe he said what a lot of people were feeling

Steve why not telling the whole thing. Tell why he didn’t show up to the work outs. Be fair!!!! That work out was not a fair one…
what was unfair about it
Does he want to play or not that’s your job interview nothing unfair about it
They didn't have to do that. It's their league. You come in like every one else. When you interview for a job do they come to you or do you go to them.
He was already in the league. Let's be real, he was fast becoming a 2nd or 3rd tier QB. He was not at the top of his game.
How was it not fair? 26 teams, at an NFL facility, with everthing setup for him to workout. That had never been done. What more did he want?
Clueless
Steve knew what the owner wanted he knew Kaepernick was going to be blackball so he played the card to get points with the owner of ESPN and NFL look how his career blowup and he continues to stay the course for his owners
He wasn’t blackballed. He was still offers contracts he turned them all down. Same a CFL and USFL contracts.
Is it really being "blackballed" when you're a cancer who has very little value and no teams want to bring you in their locker room?
Oh please u just mad he ain’t d riding Kapernick because he’s black ! Its his own fault he didn’t show up
What show is this?
