play00:00

I want to transition to a subject that I

play00:02

know is going to ruffle a few feathers

play00:04

it's going to make some people upset

play00:07

I want to say for the record

play00:10

I don't care

play00:12

at some point in time truth has to

play00:14

matter

play00:15

and we have to get back to that

play00:17

Colin Kaepernick wrote a letter to the

play00:18

New York Jacks to the New York Jets

play00:21

essentially asking that they consider

play00:23

him

play00:25

to play on their practice squad

play00:29

Kaepernick's letter to the Jets was

play00:32

shared on social media by rapper J Cole

play00:37

with permission from Kaepernick just to

play00:41

be clear

play00:43

ladies and gentlemen

play00:45

I'm not going to tell you that I'm sick

play00:47

of this story

play00:49

and the reason I'm not going to tell you

play00:50

that is because I respect the hell out

play00:52

of Colin Kaepernick

play00:54

in 2016 when he kneeled during the

play00:57

national anthem

play00:58

to bring attention

play01:00

to racial oppression and strife in this

play01:02

country

play01:03

I don't believe there's a minority in

play01:05

this country who should have a problem

play01:06

with him

play01:09

he did that for us

play01:11

he did that for the desolate and

play01:13

disenfranchised out there along with

play01:15

various others who were being abused by

play01:17

the system

play01:18

who happened to be

play01:20

a black and brown descent

play01:23

and a lot of people would not have made

play01:26

the sacrifices that he made

play01:28

he used to be supported

play01:31

as much as reasonably possible

play01:35

where I feel left

play01:37

is when folks act like we're supposed to

play01:39

ignore the facts

play01:42

and ignore the level of culpability and

play01:44

accountability he has and how things

play01:47

have ended up

play01:50

I would remind you that Colin Kaepernick

play01:52

once sued the National Football League

play01:55

and when he sued them

play01:58

essentially for ostracizing him and what

play02:00

have you

play02:03

they reached the settlement

play02:05

I don't know of too many people on this

play02:07

planet who sues the company reaches a

play02:10

settlement and then ends up seeking

play02:12

employment from that same company in the

play02:13

future

play02:15

that's what Colin Kaepernick did that is

play02:17

a fact

play02:19

and we know this

play02:22

yet and still because of the NFL

play02:25

League's office association with Jay-Z

play02:29

and Roc Nation

play02:31

because of Jay-Z's role Within

play02:35

the power structure and fabric of the

play02:38

National Football League and the fact

play02:39

that he has the air of individuals like

play02:41

Roger Goodell along with various owners

play02:44

in 2019

play02:49

just nearly 10 months after reaching the

play02:52

settlement with the NFL

play02:54

the NFL scheduled a workout at the

play02:57

Atlanta Falcons facility

play03:02

Colin Kaepernick at the time along with

play03:05

his lady and others in his camp

play03:07

we're looking for one team

play03:09

to show interest in him

play03:12

2016 showed up

play03:14

26.

play03:17

I personally at that time went on

play03:19

national television and announced to the

play03:21

world that I was being told Colin

play03:23

Kaepernick would have to throw the

play03:25

football into the stands

play03:27

in order to not have a job in the NFL in

play03:30

two weeks

play03:33

so what does Colin Kaepernick do just

play03:35

hours before

play03:36

that practice session

play03:39

that tryout session that workout session

play03:41

at the Atlanta Falcons facility

play03:44

in November of 2019 was set up just

play03:47

hours

play03:48

Kaepernick chose to hold it at Charles

play03:51

Drew High School

play03:53

60 miles from the Falcons facility

play03:56

NFL Personnel who was in attendance who

play03:58

flew from all over the place didn't know

play04:01

about the workout until approximately

play04:02

two hours before it took place which

play04:05

means they were going to have to drive

play04:06

about an hour and 20 minutes to a high

play04:08

school field

play04:09

because Colin Kaepernick wouldn't sign

play04:11

some waiver that the NFL had Drew up and

play04:14

he went to The Practice Facility or to

play04:16

the high school facility to conduct his

play04:18

own workout separate and apart from them

play04:20

his belief his his Mantra was hey you

play04:24

know what

play04:26

they want me to sign a waiver that no

play04:27

other player had to sign the NFL says of

play04:29

course how waiver is different

play04:31

we're conducting a workout for an

play04:33

individual player which is something

play04:34

we've never done in our history

play04:36

and since we've never done that in our

play04:38

history

play04:39

why in God's name

play04:41

will we not protect ourselves when it

play04:43

comes to conducting a workout for a

play04:45

player for the first time in league

play04:47

history who had just sued us

play04:51

now Kaepernick is quick to talk about

play04:53

how he's training three hours a day

play04:55

Monday through Friday for the last six

play04:57

years to stay in shape for a potential

play04:59

comeback

play05:00

stop

play05:02

bro

play05:04

I I hope I'm wrong

play05:06

I pray I'm wrong I know you've been

play05:08

blackballed

play05:09

I know you were unfairly and

play05:10

unjustifiably blackballed Colin

play05:13

Kaepernick violated he violated no

play05:16

constitutional rights he exercises

play05:18

constitutional rights as an American

play05:19

citizen he violated no laws he violated

play05:22

no bylaws of the National Football

play05:24

League the National Football League said

play05:26

with this collective bargaining it

play05:29

strongly encouraged one to stand for the

play05:31

national anthem it did not mandate it

play05:33

like other leagues like the National

play05:35

Basketball Association Major League

play05:36

Baseball it did not do that

play05:39

the NFL did not mandate it it strongly

play05:42

encouraged it

play05:43

so since we know that and we know he was

play05:45

in violation and no laws about or NFL

play05:48

bylaws we know he's been blackballed and

play05:51

we know that the former president Donald

play05:52

Trump hijacked it hijacked the narrative

play05:55

for his own political gain

play05:58

just and and just to gnaw away at the

play06:01

National Football League because he knew

play06:03

it was going to piss them off

play06:05

because it was going to bring unwanted

play06:07

attention to their Direction and cost

play06:09

them money compromising their bottom

play06:12

line how do I know this because of 2014

play06:14

Donald Trump called me personally

play06:17

and said quote he want to buy the

play06:19

Buffalo Bills

play06:21

who was on the market for over a billion

play06:22

dollars at the time

play06:24

and when reports were surfacing that

play06:26

other owners were going to get in this

play06:28

way Donald Trump said to me

play06:31

personally Stephen A Smith

play06:34

quote

play06:37

if those get in my way

play06:42

I'm gonna get them

play06:44

I'm gonna run for the presidency of the

play06:47

United States

play06:49

those were his exact words

play06:52

and damn it he did it

play06:55

so the man was true to his word at least

play06:57

in that regard

play06:59

I say all of that to say

play07:01

these are all things that were laid out

play07:03

for Colin Kaepernick he was doing all

play07:06

things that were told to him

play07:08

whether directly or indirectly through a

play07:10

myriad of people from what I've Been

play07:12

Told

play07:14

I personally told this

play07:16

to his lady

play07:19

it didn't matter

play07:21

he chose to bypass the workout

play07:25

and that next day that I went on the air

play07:28

when he bypassed the workout and didn't

play07:30

show up I said it's over

play07:34

he doesn't want to play football bad

play07:36

enough I'm not accused enough of not

play07:37

wanting to play football I know he wants

play07:38

to play football but I said not bad

play07:40

enough

play07:42

not bad enough

play07:44

because there's no way in hell they're

play07:45

going to go through all of this and then

play07:47

you're going to bypass the workout and

play07:49

they're going to turn around and say

play07:51

cool it's no big deal all right we'll

play07:53

figure out another way they're done with

play07:55

you they're done with you coaches GMS

play07:58

players in the league contemporaries

play08:00

they all know you deserve to be there at

play08:02

least once upon a time I don't know how

play08:03

you deserve to be there now seven years

play08:05

when you ain't played come this January

play08:07

1st it'll be seven full years you

play08:08

haven't played an NFL game I don't know

play08:10

if you deserve it now based on what you

play08:12

could do but I know you should have

play08:13

never been Blackboard you should have

play08:14

never been mistreated you should have

play08:16

never been ostracized No Doubt

play08:19

it was wrong

play08:22

but in the end

play08:24

that was your decision

play08:29

that was your decision

play08:31

that's what happened

play08:33

and so as we look at it from that

play08:35

perspective you made that decision

play08:38

and there's no getting around it the

play08:40

owners are not they don't have to

play08:40

collude

play08:43

as of today ladies and gentlemen did you

play08:45

know that this week that this season at

play08:46

the start of this season

play08:48

14 black quarterbacks were starting in

play08:50

the National Football League

play08:52

did you know

play08:54

that of the top 11 quarterbacks being

play08:58

paid the top paid 11 quarterbacks seven

play09:00

of them were black

play09:02

these owners don't think they ain't

play09:05

worried about Colin Kaepernick

play09:06

compromising their bottom line anymore

play09:08

him not being there they're like hell

play09:10

people are watching us we're getting

play09:11

more money every single day we on

play09:13

YouTube now we're on Fox we're on NBC we

play09:16

on CBS we on ESPN we on ABC

play09:21

and we on YouTube

play09:24

hell give them some time they might be

play09:25

on tick tock

play09:27

they worried about Colin Kaepernick

play09:31

yeah

play09:33

out of sight out of mind that's what

play09:35

they wanted

play09:37

and if I'm being totally honest the

play09:39

disappointment that I feel towards Colin

play09:42

Kaepernick

play09:43

is primarily one thing and one thing

play09:45

only

play09:47

he didn't trust us

play09:49

I'm talking about the public

play09:52

who supports him

play09:56

if he has shown up to that workout

play09:59

cameras would have been everywhere

play10:01

because by the way the league gave him

play10:02

permission to keep the film

play10:04

they were going to give him the film and

play10:06

he could have disseminated it any way he

play10:07

wanted to

play10:09

but understand

play10:11

why he was doing the workout the eyes of

play10:13

the world would have been watching

play10:14

reporters everywhere would have been

play10:16

watching the public at large would have

play10:17

been watching ESPN and fox and everybody

play10:20

else would have been all over it if he

play10:22

had gone out and performed there is no

play10:25

way they would have been able to deny

play10:27

him

play10:29

didn't trust anybody

play10:32

he didn't trust the public he didn't

play10:34

trust the public outcry and the fuhrer

play10:37

that would have presented to force their

play10:39

hands he didn't trust it

play10:44

he went the other way

play10:46

and as a result he's on the outside

play10:47

looking in

play10:50

I hope I'm wrong

play10:52

I really do

play10:56

but I said it in 2019 that I thought

play10:58

Colin Kaepernick's NFL career was over

play11:03

it's nearly far it's nearly five years

play11:06

later am I wrong

play11:08

have I been proven wrong yet

play11:13

I know he deserves better

play11:16

I know he doesn't deserve

play11:18

what has happened to him

play11:20

I pointed this out

play11:23

and I pointed this out today this

play11:25

morning on First Take

play11:30

Colin Kaepernick didn't work out for NFL

play11:32

teams in November of 2019.

play11:35

play11:37

quarterbacks who who made starts backup

play11:42

injuries That season

play11:43

Brandon Allen Jeff Driscoll Matt Moore

play11:46

Chase Daniel Brian Hoya Sean Manion Colt

play11:50

McCoy and AJ McCarron you're trying to

play11:52

tell me a Super Bowl quality quarterback

play11:54

like

play11:56

Colin Kaepernick could not

play11:59

have been on the team of course he could

play12:01

have

play12:03

once upon the time being a backup was

play12:05

unacceptable now he's asking to be on a

practice squad

play12:10

he is revered and should be revered in

play12:12

the African-American community and a

play12:14

minority communities throughout this

play12:16

nation for the battles that he has

play12:17

fought on our behalf

play12:19

he deserves not just our respect but our

play12:21

love

play12:22

and our support

play12:25

all of that is true

play12:27

he's he got screwed

play12:29

I don't like it one bit

play12:32

but it's undeniable that there was it

play12:35

was potentially avoidable

play12:39

if he had trusted somebody

play12:42

and he didn't

play12:46

and because of that

play12:48

he's on the outside looking in

play12:52

he's received numerous awards for his

play12:54

courage his bravery

play12:56

his conscientious opposite observance

play12:59

all of that's true

play13:03

but if you really wanted to play

play13:04

football that bad

play13:07

why did you just

play13:08

show up

play13:10

for the workout session

play13:12

and left to rest to the public at all at

play13:16

law true loves and support you

play13:19

you didn't do it

play13:22

and that is why he is not in the NFL

play13:25

I believe

play13:27

forever

play13:28

I hope I'm wrong I pray that I'm wrong

play13:34

but I doubt it
