They did it for one man? Or did they do it for PR and to pacify a group to

include a portion of fans to show they were moving these mountains for one man? The NFL wanted to look like they did the right thing in the eyes of the portion of the public that feels he's been black balled. That was their motivation, not being altruistic of Kaepernick. A drop in the bucket of PR money was spent.

Simply put, I don't think anyone looks good IMO and Kaepernick probably helped to ensure he looked even worse with his counter move in this silly PR battle.

I understand it, just don’t agree with it. -- PhotoHokieNC 11/17/2019 1:42PM

So let's break down what you don't agree with... I can tell you -- BG Hokie 11/17/2019 1:49PM

If that was any part -- or all - of the league's motivation, I say -- PhotoHokieNC 11/17/2019 2:01PM

Agree, and it's a PR stunt that's now gone awry on both sides, really -- BG Hokie 11/17/2019 12:48PM

It's not PR; my read is a few teams wanted to, and NFL provided cover -- WestyHokie 11/17/2019 10:45AM

If a few teams wanted it, they would get him to their facilities for a try -- BG Hokie 11/17/2019 12:49PM

I'd have to understand -- `lag 11/17/2019 11:10AM

Trying him out and signing him are two different things -- WestyHokie 11/17/2019 6:25PM

Yep. Deep in the brain of some PR wag, the notion was formulated -- PhotoHokieNC 11/17/2019 10:15AM
