Colin Kaepernick compares NFL tryouts to slavery

[Yinny]

Ownership in certain spheres with disregard for the person’s wellbeing and such can be compared to property. But it’s still pretty disrespectful to invoke slavery itself.

And didn’t he want to play again several times despite all this?

 

[Conan]

The problem with this analogy is that it's open to everyone. They're not forcing you to do it.

The most famous combine picture is of Tom Brady so I get what he's trying to say but it falls flat once you realize all sports do this.

All sports do not do this

KP is tripping on this one

 

[the artist known az]

He's not the first person to say that. Marcellus Wiley had said the same thing for years. IDK if he'd still say that today

ESPN LITERALLY HAD A SHOW
WHERE THEY AUCTIONED FOOTBALL
PLAYERS OFF LIKE SLAVES.

Forget it. Let me watch it first, before I talk shyt.

 

[2Quik4UHoes]

When the full scope of the brutality that enslaved people had to go through is fully disseminated and understood throughout the country then this kinda shyt won’t be as commonplace.

CACs already infiltrated the Coli and TLR...

 

[staticshock]

He compared the way the NFL nitpicks players to the way cacs would nitpick slaves bodies on the auction blocks.

I genuinely don’t see the issue

the issue is nfl players make millions and black men aren’t the only race of people who go through the combine

 

[DaHNIC82]

The series is pretty good

Lets also not act like they treat/ask the white players the same questions during the interview process, as they do white players.

Miami GM sorry for Bryant prostitute query
