On actual GOOD health news, it seems Chris Mortensen has Brock Lesnar’d the fuck out of cancer. He’s actually planning to come back to work in the near future.
Never forget stories like Bo Jackson. It was just a regular tackle and it ended his career. Same with Daryl Stingley.
Lots of freak injuries happen. People need to realise how often people get hurt in sports like Tennis without tackling
Its going to stay where it is. If by chance you couldn’t make Friday but could do Sunday I was going to flip flop some people around. Next year I’ll have to be more conscious of where people are time zone wise.
Today marks the 10-year anniversary of the day this man entered our lives.
10 more years!!
I will get it to you today. When do I need yo be available for drafting? I have some events happening next couple days so I am trying to see if I need to switch days around
If that Vick to Vikings rumor is true lol
Not even sure who they’d start at this point, Hill?
Im in Chicago so that time works for me
There’s also a LOT more stress on your body (sans tackling) playing Tennis. It’s why careers don’t tend to last too long.
They won’t get Vick. They would far rather go for like Kaep, Mccgowan, or even Sanchez. They need a legit starter because Teddy is scheduled to MAYBE make it back for start of the season next year so they need a legit starter and actually legit backup for if/when teddy even returns.
Alright, now I’m with whoever said that Kaep was doing all of this for attention.
Sit out the national anthem, hey it’s a free country, but if you’re coming to press conferences wearing a Fidel Castro shirt and socks with pig cops on them…
Triggered :lol:

Translation: Just be glad you’re not a slave anymore picking cotton, but instead be privileged enough to have the opportunity to be hand chosen to get paid millions to play a game white people play
“We gave you wealth and allowed you to become a quarterback in our beloved game. How dare you acknowledge the unjust treatment of Black people. White people raised you; you are not one of them…” said the racist…
So funny how the main people CONSTANTLY bitching about people being so easily offended and are too “PC” nowadays are the ones bitches and moaning about Kaepernick. But thats none of my business Sips tea
Now then, time to destroy you.
You want to be angry at Kaepernick but you made DAMN sure you’d keep ya mouth shut about Ryan Lochte huh? Making excuses for him for what he did and how he EMBARRASSED this country, you wanna bitch at Gabby Douglas for not putting her right hand on her heart during the national anthem when Donald trump did the EXACT same thing and you said not a WORD about him tho. Oh but still, both he AND Lochte gets a pass tho right.
I find it so HILARIOUS how white people have the NERVE to wanna hold black people to a patriotic standard whenever they do something they deem “unpatriotic” yet whenever their own white kind do something even WORSE, they dont dare question or discipline them in anyway.
Their only response to black is “uh DURR! If Joo dunt like eet Juz leeve DUUR”
But whenever Whites do it its free speech and they have a right to feel that way.
I find it hilarious how white people twisted this story and kaeps stance by making it about war vets and not about the constant oppression by blacks in this country. Oh white people. Always diverting away from the issue. Classic.
If you people are so butthurt about Kaep not standing for the national anthem (That was composed by a white supremacist slave master btw)
Maybe you all should move to North Korea, where flag appreciation is mandatory or punishable by death. =/
Fuck outta here before you get educated ya closet racists.
young black men are 21 times more likely to be killed by cops than young white men
when taken together, the number of people of color killed by police — Latino, black, Asian, and indigenous people — surpasses the number of whites in 2015, although whites account for nearly 2/3 of America’s population
In 2005, Black drivers (4.5%) were twice as likely as White drivers (2.1%) to be arrested during a traffic stop, while Hispanic drivers (65%) were more likely than White (56.2%) or Black (55.8%) drivers to receive a ticket. In addition, Whites (9.7%) were more likely than Hispanics (5.9%) to receive a written warning, while Whites (18.6%) were more likely than Blacks (13.7%) to be verbally warned by police
In 2010, the U.S. Sentencing Commission reported that African Americans receive 10% longer sentences than whites through the federal system for the same crimes
A study conducted in 2015 shows that While white-sounding names spurred 50 percent more callbacks than the ones with black-sounding names, even with the same credentials, black-sounding names were 33 percent less likely to get responded to.
Between 1934-1962 the government refused to give out home loans to black people, forcing black people to live in ghettos and segregating America to this day. Property taxes funds schools, so families that live in better homes get better education, which in turns gets them better paying jobs (money that’s used to buy houses and the cycle begins again).
Black people make up the majority of the prison population (arrested at 6 times the rate of white people). The average sentence for a non-violent drug offense for a black person is 58.7 months, the average sentence for a violent offense for a white person is 61.7 months (a 3 month difference only).
The sentence for possession of crack (low purity, cheap, common among blacks) is 18x harsher than the sentence for possession of cocaine (purer, more expensive, common among whites), only recently changed from 100x harsher
84% of officers say they’ve witnessed the use of excessive force, 1/5 say they’ve witnessed harassment based on skin color
Racism IS STILL alive and well, just presented more subtly. America is set up to prevent the advancement of people of color.?
whites are 77% of the population so of course more are killed but even the minorities (less than 50% of the U.S. population) are killed more annually than whites
I never said everyone was racist I said the system is and it’s fucked up, obviously not all of America is
All lives do matter but atm people of color are most vulnerable. That’s like is you said “my room needs to be cleaned” and I got upset and said “my room needs to be cleaned too, your room isn’t more important than mine stop trying to make everything about you”. BLM movement isn’t about putting blacks above anybody, it’s about spreading awareness of the discrimination blacks are facing
And no I don’t believe you’re racist, only missing the point.
I just wanted to specifically stress out what I said to your first comment. Whites account for 77% of the US population. Which means that the other 33% are minorities (13% being black). More minorities (33% of the US population) are killed annually by cops than whites (77%). Not throwing in other races to boost “our” numbere, it’s because other races are also being discriminated against and we’re fighting for their equality also. It would be normal to see that the majority are dying more than the minorities simply because there are more available to be killed (not saying that they should be, no one deserves to die), but it’s highly abnormal to notice that more minorities are dying than the majority. Not many people know that so they simply think the BLM movement is a bunch of bullshit black people came up with, but if you show facts and stats, it shows that we are being discriminated against. What people fail to understand is that we are not trying to start a war nor are we trying to call anyone racist or offend any other race. We are simply trying to EDUCATE others and spread AWARENESS of the bullshit that we face on a day to day basis so that it can be stopped. No one is saying all whites are racist or that blacks are better, America’s too argumentative and quick to jump to conclusions instead of sitting down and actually listening with an open mind. We’re trying to get people to realize how fucked up this is and it needs to stop?
I know, it’s easier to believe something if its just repeated over and over again on the internet, and that’s cool. Unfortunately, while you rely on what you believe, I have actual FACT on my side. According to the FBI, Whites actually commit more crimes in the US than any other ethnic group.
From the FBI (Federal Bureau Of Investigation) website:
“In 2013, 68.9 percent of all persons arrested were white, 28.3 percent were black, and the remaining 2.9 percent were of other races”
. (See Table 43.)
Now this is the part where people like you usually respond with, "Uh, you just made that up, blah, blah–one idiot even accused me of somehow “inventing” the FBI website–so for the sake of having to continue this debate, I’ve included the link:
And By truth I mean you’re full of shit.

Like I said, bullshit stereotyping is one thing, but FACTS are something else entirely.
And of course you WOULD bring up black on black crime.
Oh? You mean this? A more up to date one when, first off, Blacks are at 37%, yet Whites are at 59% violent crime? Or when it comes to White murders only 13% are committed by Blacks while 84% is by other Whites? Drugs are 69% Whites, 29% Blacks, yet much more Blacks, 60% are in prison?
C’mon. Get serious. Its time that you and every other suspect White supremacist admit that this country has always had in, and will have it in for Black people.

Have that seat. You are hereby debunked from head to too. There IS no coming back from this irrefutable factual. Period. Your L has been validated. So much so don’t even bother to reply back cuz I won’t read it. Get fuckin educated ya white racist.
NEXT!?[/details]
I’m triggered by people taking advantage of a sensitive social topic for personal gain and then saying anyone who calls them out on it is a bigot. I was on Kaep’s side but the longer this goes on, the worse he handles it. If he had just said what he had to say, someone would have picked him off waivers and his career would have continued. Now he’s ensuring that no team is going to pick him up after this so that when the Niners release him, he’ll be made a martyr and the franchise will be painted as racists. It’s a scummy move against a team that made him a very rich man, and even publicly defended him when all of this went down.
I’ll say this.
The Right Message said by the Wrong Person and/or at the Wrong Time can warp the message itself.
This seems like a pr move on his part, he didn’t care about any of this until he was about to be released. I would be willing to be of the media quit covering him, this would stop.
Wouldn’t realistically though teams would be turned off from picking Kaep up (say if he wants to be start or start fresh) if it brings a shitshow like this?
It’s evident he’s not gonna start,his contract is looking poor now, and his relationship with the team even before this has been fractured for some time.
What’s even gonna happen at this point?
SF already announced he is starting to avoid the shitshow if he didn’t.
It’s Preseason Week 4, all the teams are starting bums. He was going to start this week regardless of him doing this shit.
someone on facebook came to the same conclusion. if this was the case, it doesnt really make any sense, why would any team want to keep someone that becomes a distraction?
