    Oh I know what it's called. It still looks terrible, and as out dated as bell bottom pants, and wing like collars on your shirt.

    By the way the "Ouch" in the the tread OP title (Ouch: GQ magazine names Collin Kaepernick man of the year) is a lame bit of editorializing
    that implies somebody gives a damn about what GQ puts in their glossy waste of paper magazine or that it has some impact in the greater world.
    There is no "ouch"...only a "meh" as in Meh, who cares?


    Kaepernick is this year's Caitlin Jenner and as time goes by less and less people will care about this fool who threw away an NFL career
    to please his radicalized girl friend, who already cost him a chance to go back to work in Baltimore. He's a real fool.

    And he's also half white.

    But he's the new face of the Black Panthers, lol

    GQ has a publication rate of just over 100,000.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GQ

    That means 1 for every 3,300 Americans. Nor is really subscribers. Mostly it is in magazine racks such as people at airports looking for anything to read during the boring flights. It evolved from a trade publication for high dollar men's clothing to being a publication for metrosexuals with a major shift to a focus on gay men.

    GQ influences no one and likely made this selection deliberately seeking controversy as free advertising and to claim the magazine is relevant to anything. It is not.

    I meant the game played against the Panthers that year, it was 46-27 Panthers, he did the salute while both teams were leaving the field and going into the locker room. The seats are empty because fans have to leave once the clock hits zero, and security comes by to make sure no one stays too long.

    Obama, Kaepernick. Man, why can't you find some actual black guys to cheerlead for?

    He didn't create the "one drop of blood" rule. That was foisted upon him and the Black Panthers. Either change the rule or live with the consequences.

    At least the Black Panthers were actually black. Kaepernick is a pretty confused guy. Must suck to hate half your DNA makeup.

    Not as many as the ones dancing when unarmed Black Men/Teens and Children are Gun Down by Police Officers.

    ... even Cowboys had a Code of Ethics.

    I think we all should move past this Kneeling ... people who want to will, people who don't won't.

    It's called Freedom of Choice ... no a new concept.
