xaxat November 19, 2019 Share November 19, 2019 I might be one of the few, but I think Kaep played this right. The "rules" for the tryout made it pretty clear the league wasn't serious about giving an opportunity to get signed. He was given days notice, he didn't know who would be running the tryout, who he would be throwing to and who would be in attendance. I think the last part is important because there are only a handful of people in an organization who could make the decision to sign him. The owner, GM and the most senior coaches in the league. The NFL ensured that none of them would be there by scheduling the tryout on a Saturday. I don't care if a team's second best scout (the best scout was at an SEC game) gave a rave review, that opinion really wouldn't matter with the real decision makers. In addition, there was the contract the league asked him to sign. Which Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio (who is also a lawyer) said Quote It’s important here because of the history of litigation between the two sides, and regarding the possibility for more litigation, if Kaepernick continues to be shunned and if he believes that a formal grievance would yield sufficient evidence that collusion continues after the settlement of his first collusion claim in February 2019. As mentioned yesterday, it would arguably constitute malpractice for a lawyer to allow the client to sign the release that was presented to Kaepernick, given the past legal battle between Kaepernick and the league. So yeah. He blew off the NFL, who wasn't going to sign him and primarily wanted to erase any future potential liability. And got to do it his way. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5759927

This wasn't the standard waiver. This is also said he wouldn't sue if no team signed him. They were trying to avoid a second collusion claim. Also, Kaep wanted to film it so he could send it to teams who couldn't make it. The NFL wanted sole control over filming and sending tape to the teams. I.e. edit it to fit the narrative he is not in shape and can't throw. Scouts who were there said he looked ready to play. BTW, Matt Moore who ALSO hasn't played in the NFL since 2017 and was never really a starter or that good, got signed by a team without having to go through a dog and pony show tryout. Kaep was not treated like every walk-on, undrafted, retired player we are trying to lure back. He was treated like a PR stunt to make it look like the NFl was the good guy. He refused to play their game. Now back to actual football. I have to wonder if that 4 daily round trip is getting to be too much for Rivers. He is just not looking good this year.

The NFL gave him only a few days notice, picked the date (and quite deliberately one in which coaches and the number one scouts are busy), location and coach, insisted on no press, and tried to foist the "nope, no collusion here" waiver on him. Kaep let them think they were getting away with this charade, and then exposed it for what it was. As he said, "I’ve been ready for three years. I’ve been denied for three years. We all know why. I came out there and showed it today in front of everybody.” But I'm supposed to give him the side eye? No thanks, sports media, I see you just like I see the league. The Monday before, in accepting Glamour magazine's Woman of the Year award, Megan Rapinoe went all in thanking Kaepernick and calling out not only the unfairness of his treatment, but the discrepancy between his and hers. You can find the speech in its entirety many places, but here's part: Quote So while I’m enjoying all of this unprecedented—and, frankly, a little bit uncomfortable—attention and personal success, in large part due to my activism off the field, Colin Kaepernick is still effectively banned from the NFL for kneeling during the national anthem in protest of known and systematic police brutality against people of color, known and systematic racial injustice, and known and systematic white supremacy.

Danny Franks November 21, 2019 Share November 21, 2019 No NFL team is going to sign Colin Kaepernick, and I think everyone really should understand that. It's not a question of his talent (which is demonstrable but was always inconsistent), it's a question of them hating the idea of a "media circus", which would be of the NFL's own making more than it would be Kaepernick's. He committed the grievous sin of upsetting the delicate sensibilities of a certain demographic (which includes most NFL owners) and instead of backing him as they should have done, using fully justifiable logic and common sense to take advantage of a teaching opportunity, the league let other people set the narrative. Kaepernick did his best to keep it focused on the actual issue he was highlighting, but it's long been twisted far beyond that. But it's become a vicious circle, now - NFL teams won't sign him because of the media attention, and every day no one signs him, the media attention if they did becomes even greater. And the NFL are feeding into that even more, by trying to use him to get some positive publicity, without actually having to employ him. It's too late for them to spin this positively. He was blackballed, because the league didn't have the courage to say 'he's within his rights to do this'. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5765766

But his actions do not excuse my lack of restraint in the moment, and I truly regret the impact this has had on the league, the Browns and our devoted fans. And the NFL can miss me with its "found no such evidence" assertion. The evidence is Garrett's statement.

That's why the indefinite suspension. It wasn't a first on-field offense. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5770303
mojoween November 24, 2019 Share November 24, 2019 I bought a PS4 the other day specifically so my hubby could watch “The Mandalorian” and I could watch “Peyton’s Places” on the TV instead of a tablet. Full disclosure - I am fully aware of Peyton’s history. But damn I love him, still. Watching him try to drive a stick nearly brought tears to my eyes from laughing. It reminded me of my one failed attempt, but I never got the car to move. I’ve only been able to watch two eps so far because we just set up the system yesterday and my son hogged it most of the night to play Call of Duty but I am itching to finish it. The NFL should really look into making this accessible to everyone because they could use some godwill.

Although, Peyton's Places sounds like it could be likable. This afternoon's game (Cowboys - Patriots) represents a rare lose-lose type of situation. It is going to be a 3 hour suckfest as Joe Buck & Troy Aikman shows their alligence to the Cowboys & Patriots. It doesn't matter who wins that game today. We all lose. The only good thing about today is that I know that the Bungles ae going to lose again today. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5772095
xaxat November 24, 2019 Share November 24, 2019 I think someone might of have posted a link earlier, but I just got around to reading ESPN's deep dive into the LA stadium deal. What a mess. Quote Spanos felt burned and betrayed by the vote and the entire L.A. decision process, and therefore few expected him to exercise the tenancy option. But he did, and now these unequal partners are locked in a bitter fight, stoked by Kroenke's fury over cost overruns exceeding $3 billion, questions over the Chargers' long-term viability in the market, a lawsuit seeking billions over Kroenke's departure from St. Louis that has engulfed the entire league, and an increasingly fractious and sometimes petty civil war between Rams and Chargers officials, according to documents and nearly two dozen interviews with owners, league and team executives, and lawyers. I don't understand how the league allowed Jerry Jones to inside deal as much as he did. He helped dictate the deal that led to the Rams and Chargers developing a stadium. His company Legends (which he owns with the Steinbrenners) was then put in charge of its construction, handled the seat licenses for the Chargers and will handle the concessions for both teams. (BTW, two of those things aren't going so well.) Schadenfreude level is high. The only person I felt bad for was this guy. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5772143
Bastet November 24, 2019 Share November 24, 2019 My friend works on the L.A. stadium construction project in a financial capacity, so I hear a lot about the budgetary clusterfuck (granted, I hear a lot of the same on all projects) - and then fill in the NFL soap opera behind it all, as my friend pays no attention to the sport. I forwarded that ESPN article in an email that said, "Here's everything I've been babbling about". Thanks to CBS, I'll finally get weeds pulled this afternoon, because there is no 1:00 game on my affiliate, leaving the only afternoon football option the Cowboys-Patriots shitfest on FOX. Not that I'd actually want to watch Jaguars-Titans, but at least I'd just be uninterested rather than repelled. Go, meteorite! 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5772268
Ohwell November 24, 2019 Share November 24, 2019 I've made my peace with hating the Patriots, so I'm pretty calm and defeated when it comes to them winning; I've given up. However, I go into a blinding rage whenever the Cowboys win a goddamn thing. So yeah, I hope the Patriots kick their arses. 1 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5772296

Ohwell November 24, 2019 Share November 24, 2019 (edited) Well, I'm happy my 'Skins won today, and doubly happy for Dwayne Haskins. Now we're 2-9. 😃 Since we're out of the playoffs I hope we can just have some fun. Aaaand the Steelers won. It's a good day.

mojoween November 24, 2019 Share November 24, 2019 If I forget who they are playing, this Dallas cavalcade of mistakes is art. And as my husband pointed out, the rain is a good start to get that sinkhole action happening at Gillette to swallow both teams whole. 2 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/242/#findComment-5772464
