HOOOORAAAAAY, NIGGGGGGGERS
Honestly, I think half of the reason I enjoyed Brady getting his 7th ring was that it shut up the insufferable "Mahomes is the next Brady" narrative that dominated 2019-2020 sports journalism.
I gotta be honest I want the Niners to win and Jimmy to not pass for a touchdown again a) for the memes, and b) I want this Rams strategy of constantly going all in to build consecutive super teams and get endless media hype to die a horrible death
He's in pretty elite company. Marino, Warner, Brady, Roethlisberger, Wilson and...Kaepernick.
Agreed. Rams should win this one, maybe not handily but I really think they have the momentum. Stafford can make it, and I really hope that he does.
Well, 2 of those 6 men never went back to the Super Bowl, so there's that.
Kaepernick had some decent talent. Derailed his career due to politics tho. I’m surprised he didn’t get picked up by a team like Tampa bay when they were shopping for a super bowl winning team with Brady, Gronk, even AB etc. edit: ignore this
Kap was banned by owners. He got a massive settlement from the league because of it - he was deliberately being kept from being hired by ownership despite his performance and his willingness to tryout and do interviews with them.
Yup. Classic blackballing.
It isn’t like he was even doing anything egregious either. Wasn’t disrupting games. Stupid sure, but the overreaction by the league was about five times more stupid.
He derailed his career by sucking. The league figured him out and he was too dumb to know how to change. He then lit his career on fire with the activist shit which inflated his ego to ridiculous proportions and demanded a bunch of money and a starting job so he never became a low-cost reclamation project. This was after he got beaten for a starting job by Blaine Gabbert.
