But honestly I don't even care

Wrong Joe lawyer

"Some have speculated that Kaepernick might have told teams, or at least implied to them, that he wants to start. It’s also possible that Kaepernick has turned down overtures—perhaps even offers—from teams that want to sign him.

None of that would prevent Kaepernick from proving collusion. Why? Because an alleged conspiracy might have involved other teams and their officials. If two teams colluded against Kaepernick, and the 30 other teams did not collude, Kaepernick would still have been victimized by collusion."

Well, the burden of proof is still in kap's lawyers hands. He has to prove two team leadership positions talked about not signing him because of the kneeling or some other civilly protected reason. They could talk about his recent playing skills and it wouldn't be collusion.

I still don't care enough to continue talking about it, I don't think it has merit, and further I think the lawyers/Kap are hoping for a settlement.

He's kind of like Sam in a couple of ways. First off, he can't just be a player - he has to be a HEY HEY LOOK AT ME AND MY CAUSE WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVERYTHING ELSE kind of player. Nobody wants that distraction on their team in an age where the liberal media is like a swarm of locusts destroying everything in its path in the name of progress.

And second, also like Sam, he's nowhere near good enough to justify the baggage.

It's obviously going on, but Barry Bonds had a .480 on-base percentage and a 1.045 OPS in his final season before MLB teams colluded against him and he didn't win his collusion case against MLB. Kaepernick won't either.

Is he better than many collecting checks? absolutely! That being said if none of the owners want to deal with the headache then they have the right to not touch him with a 10 foot pole.

This is probably going to be a difficult suit for Colin to win. I absolutely think he is being blackballed.

Mark John Geragos is an Armenian-American criminal defense lawyer. Clients that he has represented include Michael Jackson, actress Winona Ryder, politician Gary Condit, Susan McDougal, and Scott Peterson. He was also involved in the Whitewater controversy. Geragos represented suspended NASCAR driver Jeremy Mayfield; Paul and Kulbir Dhaliwal, two brothers injured after a tiger escaped in San Francisco Zoo; and musician Chris Brown, who pleaded guilty in the assault of his then girlfriend Rihanna. In addition, he assisted the family of David Carradine in the aftermath of his accidental auto-erotic death.

Clearly the argument isn't whether he's better than a lot of the backups in the league and possibly a few starters as well. It's whether a team wants the PR bull that comes with signing him. If he was good enough, he'd be on a team somewhere because the pros would outweigh the cons.

Let's keep things in perspective - this ****ing turd lost his job to Blaine Gabbert.

inget that he may not be a starter for a team. But who is going to say with a straight face that he is not better than some teams backup? He's worse than Clevelands backup? Really?

You want all the bullshit that comes with him just so he can be your backup? The media coverage? The fan outrage? Over a ****ing backup?

NO, you don't. That's why the loudmouth one who sucks the penis doesn't have a job. Well, that and he sucks.

oh I agree he now has a lot of serious baggage that comes with him. That is a legitimate part to consider.

But, we have people on our team who beat their pregnant girl friend. Committed crimes. These are not Boy Scouts.

Hill never beat his girlfriend on the sideline while the National Anthem was playing.

In some cases "Allegedly"

I worked with an Eagle Scout who sold 5lbs of coke to the feds on Noland Road
