Ones a singer, ones a former football player who is more known for his national anthem protests than football. Rich is angry because Nike is using him in their ad campaigns
I get his point, if you wanna call Kaepernick a political activist, that's fine, but why is Nike using a political activist to sell sports gear?
What they are really doing is appealing to the Kaepernick's sympathizers. And they know who their customer base is.
It's a shame. The guy had great talent. Made it all the way to a superbowl, then like many athletes, couldn't sustain it for a long period of time.
Is he good enough to be backup on some team? Probably, that's where all the controversy is coming from. He claims hes being blacklisted from NFL. He's better than at least 10 backups in the NFL right now, but he would have to be paid backup money, and ride the bench.
The bottom line he's not a great quarterback, if he was nobody would care. But a marginal QB with a bad attitude probably wont land a gig.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
