I just went to watch the introductory press conference, oh man they laid into him alright. It wasn't Tim neither, I don't know who it was, I think it was some African American reporter he sounded like. It was just plain awkward.

But, hey this is the real world. You want to comment on stuff and you will be held accountable for it. So, in that sense he totally deserved it. You just don't go hardline right wing (openly) playing for a San Francisco team, it just ain't going to fly.

Hopefully, he has now learnt his lesson and will keep his political views to himself or dare I say may be his teammates will change his views.

But, again I don't think I have seen a high 1st round pick, No.2 overall to be precise being hammered without delay the moment he arrived at the team facility.
I'm still stoked we got Bosa!!
Bosa just needs to sack the qb. Everybody knows if you are conservative you will get attacked. Keep your politics to yourself unless you want to be attacked.


Just sack the qb
I guess those reports forgot when Bosa made the Kap comments. When the whole sitting during the anthem thing started most people reacted negatively to Kap. I don't even think he gave a good answer on why he was doing that at the time and the same time was when he wore those pig cop socks. I remember a few people had similar thoughts about him then...had nothing to do with his race.

People are making into something it's not and I feel bad that the moment for Nick is being tarnished. I hope he takes it out on the field like he said...

It goes both ways. If Bosa was pro-kneeling during the national anthem and if he was drafted by a southern team like the Cowboys or Texans for example, I am pretty sure the press down there would have laid into him too.

Cannot believe we got this guy. I was devastated when we let the #1 pick slip away. Too bad we didn't get Garrett a couple years ago. Imagine Bosa and Garrett together on our d-line. Oh well, Bosa and Ford is a great consolation prize.

Now you know full well if we got Garrett, we wouldn't be in position to get Bosa.

Very true. Or Buffalo. It is what it is.

I believe it was Jim Trotter who asked those questions.

Dude, that is a just plain biased.

You have to look at all his tweets and comments in totality.

So, let's see, he calls Kap a "clown", if that was an isolated case then there would be no case to call him a racist. But, unfortunately he didn't just stop there. According to him, "Black Panther" is the worst Marvel movie ever when it was in fact highly acclaimed at the Oscars that year. He also didn't just stop there and called Beyoncé's music trash. Now, I am not saying I am a huge Beyoncé fan in any way, even I know her music isn't trash. This goes on and on including his Instagram likes on racist and homophobic posts by his mates.

So, when you gather and accumulate the evidence, then the picture becomes clearer and clearer whereby is hard not to think he could be racist and homophobic.

And lol at the media speculating wildly about how he'll fit in the locker room when literally none of his former coaches and teammates have had an issue with him in the past.

Basically the media doesn't like that he has different political opinions than they do. What a bunch of clowns.

Yep.

If you can't tell the difference then I can't help you.

Thanks, don't need your help.

You need someone's help.

I may not like his political thoughts, I love him as a player, and a person. I didn't like him calling Kap a clown, but he was young, and is still young, he may need maturing, I'm happy, actually ecstatic we got Bosa at 2. I thought for sure he'd be the #1 pick before Murray declared.

I called Kap a clown, and I'm a great fan of Kap. I think you should feel free to express your political opinion without sanctions. But that was a long time ago, and now is now and everybody (but mostly conservatives) have to keep their head on a swivel if they really express what they believe in, in certain areas of the country.

Bosa would probably be #1 but for Murray declaring, and also Murray would not have gone #1 without Kliff being hired by the Tardinals.

Yep, and if drafting Bosa helps get rid of the weak-minded fans, so much the better.
