I think he really likes socks.

[Warpy]

1. Looks like he's having fun there

My own favorites werre flying pig socks. I finally wore them out.

2. Overgrown teenager.

Sorry, I'm just not impressed by this spoiled idiot.

[KMOD]

3. Yeah, I kind of sensed that.

I'm not sure why he bothers you so much.

[cwydro]

4. Bother me? I never even heard of him until I saw all this nonsense on DU.

Don't care if he sits, stands, or does handstands.

He seems to be a fairly stupid person from what I've read. This is all PR for him.

I don't particularly care about any overpaid athlete, especially in the NFL or NBA.

My sport is tennis. I see superb athletes like Venus and Serena Williams putting their money where their mouths are. They care.

Andy Murray speaks up for women. Don't even get me started on Arthur Ashe or Billie Jean. They both did (and Billie Jean still does) wonderful things for disadvantaged youth of any color.

Silly socks. Lmao at this fool. He will be yesterday's news quite soon.

7. If you followed the NFL you'd know him.

The outrage over his socks and his sitting during the anthem is pathetic. He's been doing it all preseason. Nobody said anything until they found out it was about the Black Lives Matter Movement.

15. The NFL made over 6 billion that we was shared

With 220+ million for each team, the labor (you can't have football games without football players) they, if anything are underpaid. In the NBA, they have smaller rosters to divide revenues so that is why they make a lot in fully guaranteed contracts. Plus many stars don't sign max contracts in order to spend more on a supporting cast so many NBA players don't get their market value.

Overpaid, underpaid is relative to revenues and how much the labor's share of those revenues are.

5. Man, I'm way behind!

We're onto his socks now?

Here's my favorite cycling socks:

9. His socks are the topic du jour.

Those are some cool socks you have there.

[Brother Buzz]

6. He may soon find time to organize his sock drawer AND become a social activist

Tonight, it's do or die for Kaepernick. If he doesn't play brilliantly in tonight's game, and blow the socks off the management, he'll be packing his bag

Report: Colin Kaepernick may dedicate life to social activism if cut by 49ers

Colin Kaepernick could be released by the San Francisco 49ers before Week 1 of the regular season. If that happens, the quarterback may be prepared to give up his NFL career.

Several NFL team executives told Bleacher Report’s Mike Freeman that they believe it is only a matter of time before the Niners release Kaepernick due to “external pressure.” The belief is that the team will wait a short while to allow the fallout from Kaepernick’s national anthem protest to settle before cutting him.

Perhaps more interesting, sources close to Kaepernick told Freeman Kaepernick “fully expected” the 49ers to release him after the public became aware he was refusing to stand for the national anthem. And if Kaepernick ends up getting blacklisted by the rest of the league, he is reportedly prepared to dedicate his life to social activism.

Kaepernick obviously feels very strongly about fighting for social equality. He has already said he will continue to sit during the national anthem until he sees change, and who knows when that could come. When you consider the way some league executives ripped him to shreds, you have to wonder if Kaepernick’s NFL career is close to reaching its end.

8. He'll be picked up by another team if he doesn't make

the 49er roster.

[Brother Buzz]

10. I'm not so sure about that

The Forty Niners attempted to shop him around for a year with no takers. It is well known in NFL circles he's a headcase who has been playing progressively worse every year for over three year; he's become an albatross around the team's neck.

[KMOD]

11. They tried to trade him.

I'm sure GMs who are looking for a QB are going to wait and see if he becomes a free agent. He may be no Tom Brady, but he's no Mark Sanchez either. He'll find a spot somewhere.

[Brother Buzz]

13. The Forty Niners only wish he was a free agent

The team is on the hook for Kaepernick's 2016 guaranteed salary of $11.9 million. It would be a Forty Niners' wet dream if another team bought his contract, but that ain't gonna happen. You need to understand he's a flawed football player (both physical and mental), and on a good day, he's worth only half of what he's being paid.

[KMOD]

14. He'll be free if they cut him.

And yes, I know he's flawed. I'm an expert at flawed QBs, I'm a Jets fan.

[Brother Buzz]

17. They can cut him from the roster but he'll still get paid

That pesky injury clause in his contract is the ONLY reason he's still around.

[JonLP24]

16. Because of the contract

If he was released a team would likely sign him to a 1 year smaller contract.

Besides the 49ers aren't going to release him because they have no one behind Gabbert and Gabbert has had far worse seasons than Kaepernick as full season starter.

[Brother Buzz]

18. I would go with Christian Ponder over Kaepernick in a heartbeat

I really liked what I saw with Ponder two weeks ago, and he had been with the team, and the playbook, a whopping four days!

[JonLP24]

19. I personally would favor Ponder over Gabbert

I don't have a lot of faith in Gabbert but the playbook is new to all these players with Chip Kelly.

No matter who plays they won't have a good season because of the receivers they have. Torrey Smith is a nice deep threat and Jeremy Kerley is solid bit a team like the Cardinals have 6 explosive receivers with Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd, John Brown, JJ Nelson, and Jaron Brown.

12. He'll probably go to Canada and the CFL.

I can see one of those teams taking him. I think he'd be a good fit up there and love living in Canada.

[Stellar]

20. You mean people were making a big frikin thing out of nothing?!

Just because the man got a thing for cartoons on his socks.

[KMOD]

21. Yup.

It was quite ridiculous.

[smirkymonkey]

22. Ridiculous, isn't it?

Some people need to get a life.
