Thats fair. I don't like yellow mustard.

But I must admit... I do like some ketchup for some fries from time to time.

Only in America does an ultra wealthy athlete give the metaphorical finger to the majority of the working class, act like hes better than everyone while being pampered, and then make money off of them. Lets talk about privelige and irony lol.

Might come in handy if you have an unbalanced table,or perhaps a coaster to match Hillary's new book,once they go for 50 cents each at a warehouse sale

Over $1 million for a book from the ex-San Fran quarterback. Random House is the lucky publisher to partner up for the book deal.

Colin Kaepernick has inked a book deal worth just over $1 million with Random House
Ex-San Francisco 49ers quarterback Kaepernick launched the current movement of NFL players protesting during the national anthem, and he’s recently filed a controversial collusion grievance against league owners. He’s still looking for a job in the NFL after opting out of his 49ers contract earlier this year.

The story doesn't go into the subject that Kaepernick's book will cover. I look forward to hearing what the subject is going to be and wonder how big of a market there is for this book.

Kaepernick had been seen “taking meetings with publishers in the New York offices of WME” to shop the planned book. He’s repped as an athlete by agent Carlos Fleming, and the book deal, we hear, went through Andy McNicol on the Hollywood agency lit department.

Will it be called: How I Knelt for Oppression.

I do buy some ketchup now that we have a kid because kids and ketchup are a known item, but because it's a child, I don't tend to invest in name brand ketchup.

Well he better get well paid. Do you know how hard it is to balance a laptop on one's thigh to write?

Maybe his family will buy a copy I sure as hell won't.

He has received the Mohamed Ali award for social justice. I suppose they are trying to fix his hurt feeling over football. I didn't realize he was the point person for social justice.
