You're fighting a losing argument. Perception is everything and Kaepernick has regularly put out a bad perception of himself on social media, he's made constant missteps, something that you would expect a person to learn from and correct but this shows that he has still yet to do so. Like it or not, a QB is judged far more harshly than an offensive tackle or a cornerback. You expect certain players to talk trash, you expect others to maintain an air of professionalism at all times, QB's are it, they are the superstars of the NFL, the last thing you want is the face of your franchise repeatedly sticking his foot in his mouth on social media. Whether what he posted is a big deal or not is irrelevant, it just continues a bad pattern of bad judgment on his part.


Kaepernick needs to either hire someone to handle all his posting or simply go cold turkey.

Nobody is furious, other than perhaps you who seems to take great offense at anyone not being okay with Kaepernick and his social media issues. People are just getting tired of their favorite team's QB acting like a 13 year old spoiled teenage girl run amuck with her daddy's credit card. We all have to grow up sooner or later.


And yes, this is a losing argument for you, when your entire argument boils down to Chris Crocker, it isn't a good one.

LOL really bro? your the one who is lecturing me on how to conduct yourself as professional entertainer and you are the one who is just as passionate as I am about the subject so don't tell me Im taking offense to this especially after just calling him a 13 year old lol , if anything its the opposite none of this stuff offends me.

I just find the entire argument a bit silly. "Stop picking on him, he can do whatever he wants, even if he looks like an enormous douchebag doing it."


Why is it that no other QB keeps having the same social media issues that Kaepernick does. When you're the only one out of your peers who keeps f**king up regularly because of Twitter, perhaps you should stop.

I don't understand why people care about a mistake he TWEETED. the only thing I care about is him working on getting better. It is consistently said that he's the hardest worker on the team and first in last out and he doesn't get into trouble. That's what I care about and that's all any 'fan' should care about. Some of us personalize what he did as though it's a reflection of us as 9er fans.

Once again, people are making their feelings know, you've been the only one getting riled up with the "Leave Colin" alone rants to anyone who acts like he is anything less than a saint. People certainly have the right to express how they feel, as do you, I just don't see how anyone saying Kaepernick acts like a petulant teenager on social media is wrong in anyway, shape or form considering the countless examples of him acting like an overgrown kid we've seen. From "calling out the haters" to getting into Twitter fights with fans to other random acts of douchebaggery, its past time for him to tone it down.
