i would agree with his assessment of the coverage but the second part is going to earn him major scorn

im willing to bet that golfer isnt gonna say any of those things to sam's face

or behind his back

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

was his comment a jab at Sam or a knock on ESPN for making such a big deal out of him? im sure Sam isnt gonna be a fan of the handbag comment but it might not have been meant specifically as an insult to him.

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

but it most likely was

Elk has a long history of poorly timed jokes

That's the thing of course it's ridiculous. NPR did a story about Jason Collins and his 5 fouls and 2 rebounds in 10 minutes. It's a story that people who don't watch sports care about so ESPN in a desperate attempt to get 3 new viewers are on it because there's not much else really.

How do pros not know to keep this off social media?

Now this just extends the non football side of it further.

Elk will publicly apologize and the nonsense side of it grows. Sam will be asked to comment and he will take the high road because he just wants to play football etc.

It would be a story if Sam's type were old white golfers.

i heard it's the only thing that gets him off

Eagles are getting shit done. Peters, Kelce, and Cooper have all been extended over the past 48 hours or so. warehouse should be pretty pleased with how well-oiled the FO is looking.

I wonder if they will resign Maclin.

I really want to see Maclin in Chip's offense.

[warehouse]

i think signing kelce was the best move they made. this guys is a stud, and is entering his 3rd or 4th season.

i think the eagles will end up signing maclin for 1 year for a little more $ than cooper got. cooper actually got more than i expected. if jackson/maclin/cooper are the eagles top 3, this offense should be fun to watch. cooper and maclin are also good down field blockers, so shady should have another big year.

So Darren Sharper has now been accused of rape in five different states. Sickening how he allegedly got away with this for so long.

Kaepernick’s mom takes issue with columnist’s criticism
Posted by Michael David Smith on March 6, 2014, 12:53 PM EST

Kaepernick seems to get an inordinate number of idiotic columns written about him. And his parents have taken notice.

In 2012, Kaepernick’s parents were offended by a moronic column from David Whitley of Sporting News, who ripped Kaepernick for daring to have tattoos on his arms. Now we have a ridiculous column from Lowell Cohn of the Press Democrat, who takes the report that Kaepernick wants $18 million a year on his next contract as a personal affront.

It’s completely reasonable to argue that Kaepernick isn’t worth $18 million a year, that the 49ers could better allocate their salary cap space elsewhere, or that the 49ers should wait to negotiate Kaepernick’s next contract until he has played the final season on his current contract. But Cohn’s bizarre personal attacks on Kaepernick are way over the top. A sampling:

– “If Kaepernick doesn’t get that kind of dough, he says he’ll go back to kindergarten and knock over his blocks and hold his breath until he turns blue.”

– “Someone should slap a Boston cream pie in Kaepernick’s smug face.”

– “Colin Kaepernick is not an attractive personality. Usually he doesn’t say jack. And that’s not attractive. When he says jack — and more — he’s even less attractive.”

– “It’s like he’s saying, ‘To hell with the team. I want mine.’ There are words to describe his position starting with ‘hypocrite’ and ending with ‘phony.’”

– “Advice to Jed York: If Kaepernick persists in his unrealistic, impertinent, rude demands, give him jack.”

Cohn also writes, “If he wins the Super Bowl, sure, give him Cutler money.” Cohn is apparently unaware that Jay Cutler hasn’t won a Super Bowl with the Bears, and that Kaepernick has come closer to winning the Super Bowl with the 49ers than Cutler has with the Bears.

All of that made Kaepernick’s mom unhappy.

“When one has an inability to articulate their thoughts intelligently, they often resort to name calling,” Teresa Kaepernick wrote on Twitter. “Talking about lack of decency and professionalism.”

Kaepernick’s mom is right. Calling Kaepernick a “hypocrite” and a “phony” because he wants to be well paid is silly. The idea that it’s a “rude demand” to ask for a certain amount of money is ridiculous.

Look, Kaepernick is entitled to ask for whatever he thinks he’s worth. If what he’s asking for is more than the 49ers think he’s worth, the 49ers are entitled to refuse to meet his demands. (The 49ers, thanks to the franchise tag, have the added advantage that they can keep Kaepernick from finding out what he’s worth on the open market.)

There’s no reason that the negotiations between the 49ers and Kaepernick need to grow acrimonious. Cohn seems like he’s going out of his way to create a controversy

The thing is, until today, no one other than Lowell Cohn's mom knew who he was.

Kaep is going to get paid but honestly, I don't see how he's much better than Michael Vick was illegal dogfighting ring and 2 years of prison aside, he's still a better runner than passer.
