I was taken aback when I saw this pic on nfl.com, I only knew he was the QB when I saw the jersey number. Made me realize that just about no QBs in the league have any prominent tats (other than Mike Vick. Doesn't count since he's so very black). :laugh:

Nevada Wolf Pack QB Colin Kaepernick's life story a powerful tale - ESPN


Kaepernick was adopted at birth by Rick and Teresa Kaepernick. His birth mother was 19 when he was born and wanted to give him a better life, according to his family. His birth father left the picture as soon as he found out a baby was on the way, the family said.

Rick and Teresa had two children of their own, but lost two babies shortly after birth because of heart defects. Never mind that Colin was black and they were white. They just wanted another baby. So they took him in, remaining open and honest about his adoption. Though they often get puzzled stares and quizzical looks, nobody in the family thinks much about his place in it.

His birth mother stayed in touch with his parents off and on, but three years ago, she reached out to Colin through Facebook. One day, he logged into his account and had a note and friend request waiting.

They have exchanged messages every once in a while, but have never spoken on the phone or met in person. She did attend his game at Colorado State last season but never made a move to meet him. She told him she was in the stands a week later.

"I think the main thing is she wants to know I'm doing well, and she wants to know that everything worked out for me," Kaepernick said.

Not as bad as i thought. She stayed in touch with is adopted parents to make sure he was alright. Most people don't do that at all. He doesn't seem to hate her, prolly just it what it is with him.

LOL at her claiming him now that he's a NFL star. Just like n**gas who aren't there for their kids till they hear he has potential at something that makes money.

I remember watching a college vid on Kaep. He had posters on his wall of thick bad black models and VY, Cunningham, Vick, and Moon. :myman: I knew he was 100%.

She did what alot of 19 year mothers should do, give their kids a better life instead of raising them in ratchet environment
