I guess what really hit me with this situation is just the fact that our qb is just a immature idiot. It just doesn't take much awareness and common sense to realize you might not wanna self promote using a tragedy for the back drop. Then you follow that up with a topless pic of yourself. We all know only tools and total douches do that type of stuff. I honestly see why fans of other teams don't like him and the team after this. He's the exact opposite of Anquan Boldin and you just want you leader to be smarter and more mature than this. It's why Marino and Jim Kelly never reached their ultimate goals. They were party boys and just not as locked in as the other greats.

Compare what Kaepernick posts on his twitter feed to a guy like Bridgewater who is only entering his second season in the NFL. Notice the complete absence of general all-around douchiness and immature posts.


As I said, at some point its time for Colin to grow up and stop acting like he's trying to be the most popular kid in the 8th grade.

One thing that annoys me about this 'stupid tweet' conversation is that I've seen occasions around here when someone posts a pic of Kaepernick sitting with a bunch of children with heart disease, playing with them, making their days possibly a little brighter and there will be NO reaction; nada. It's like 'who cares?' Nobody has much to say about something he might have done right outside of football, but when he makes an obvious mistake, it's like a shark feeding frenzy.

This bothers me as well. By all accounts he is a good guy who has done a great deal of good which is overlooked. I guess people expect it or think he's doing it for photo ops, but that's a very cynical view. I would love to see him learn to be a bit more discrete but so be it! I'm not going to bash someone for not being completely mature...would run out of people to talk to...including myself!

Good one! Still, it's hard for me to understand someone who thinks Kaepernick does the Childrens' Heart Disease camp and events for photo ops when it's been reported that the reason he funds the camp is in honor of his parents who lost two babies to the disease.
