On Wednesday, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) didn’t just answer questions from adversarial reporters at a Michigan rally — he spun them into rallying cries against his opponents, leaving the crowd roaring with approval. At the heart of the event, a question from a New York Times reporter about the country’s current economic climate sparked a scorching response from Vance.

The reporter’s question about the latest economic data showing inflation at under 3% — the lowest since mid-2021 — was meant to be a straightforward request for comment. Instead, it became an opportunity for Vance to critique the current administration. “I wanted to ask you about the latest economic news from this morning with inflation now being under 3%, the lowest rate since mid-2021. What is your reaction to that news?” the Times reporter asked.

“Well, I think the crowd reaction says it all,” Vance began, gesturing to the energized audience’s audible boos to the question. “Look, when they say that inflation is down, they mean from a baseline where groceries are already 30% more expensive than they were when Donald Trump was president. And they’re not saying it’s coming down, they’re just saying it’s not going up as fast as it was three years ago. That is not a reputation or a record to brag on, that’s a record to be ashamed of.”

WATCH:

Inflation slowed down in July, with a notable decrease in prices for essentials such as food and energy, along with items like new and used cars. According to the U.S. Department of Labor’s report on Wednesday, the consumer price index, which measures inflation, increased by 2.9% from the previous year.

“Why did it take them so long to get inflation to where it is, and why are prices so high? It’s because Kamala Harris failed to do her job,” Vance said. “So if they want to go around and this is, you know, it’s funny… Kamala Harris on the one hand will say on day one we’re going to tackle the affordability crisis and like I said earlier Kamala Harris has been the vice president for three and a half years, and I think, ladies and gentlemen, she’s in effect been the acting president because we all know Joe Biden isn’t home. So she’s been the one controlling government policy for three and a half years.”

“She says she wants to tackle the affordability crisis on day one and then on the other hand she’ll say well we’ve already got inflation under control. Well, which is it, Kamala? Which is it?” Vance asked.

“The simple truth is America’s credit card debt is getting higher. Americans are finding the basic necessities in middle class life less affordable. Americans are becoming, especially young people, are becoming paupers in their own country. If we don’t do better, our young generation, they’re not going to own anything, they’re not going to have anything, they’re going to be renters in the country that their parents and grandparents built. Inflation is a disaster.”

Backlash against Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran has turned into a booming endorsement of his popularity. After being suspended for two games for using a homophobic slur in response to a heckler, Duran’s jersey sales have skyrocketed, topping sales charts on MLB’s official merchandise site.

During a tense game against the Houston Astros on Sunday, Duran, struggling with his performance, lashed out at a fan taunting him from the stands. Caught by microphones and broadcast live, his reaction has sparked a whirlwind of controversy, but also a surge in public support.

“Tennis racket, tennis racket, you need a tennis racket!” shouted the heckler during the game.

“Shut up you f*cking fa***t,” Duran chimed back.

Duran, who made his MLB debut with the Red Sox and quickly rose to prominence this year, found himself in hot water when he retorted to the heckler’s jab with a slur. The moment, captured during the broadcast, led to immediate repercussions. The Red Sox swiftly suspended him for two games without pay, a decision supported by Major League Baseball. The team announced that Duran’s forfeited salary would be donated to PFLAG, an organization that supports the LGBTQ+ community.

“During tonight’s game, I used a truly horrific word when responding to a fan,” Duran said shortly after in his apology. “I feel awful knowing how many people I offended and disappointed. I apologize to the entire Red Sox organization, but more importantly to the entire LGBTQ community. Our young fans are supposed to be able to look up to me as a role model, but tonight I fell far short of that responsibility. I will use this opportunity to educate myself and my teammates and to grow as a person.”

The Red Sox issued a statement as well: “The Red Sox addressed this incident with Jarren immediately following today’s game. We echo Jarren’s apology to our fans, especially to the LGBTQ community. We strive to be an organization that welcomes all fans to Fenway Park, and we will continue to educate our employees, players, coaches and staff on the importance of inclusivity.”

Despite the disciplinary actions, the reaction from the public has been supportive. Following his apology, Duran’s jerseys began flying off the shelves, becoming the highest-selling item on the MLB shop.

Duran has played in all 116 games for the Red Sox, boasting a .291 batting average with 36 doubles, 13 triples, 14 home runs, and 58 RBIs. He has also successfully stolen 29 bases. Following his two-game suspension, Duran made a statement by wearing a specific shirt during his pregame press conference today that read: “f*ck ’em.”

Republican JD Vance (R-OH) threw a punch at Democratic rival Tim Walz (D-MN) for misrepresenting his military service in the latest flare-up of the vice-presidential campaign. Vance’s jab comes at a time while both candidates are under the intense pressure that accompanies a presidential race.

During a speech to the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, Walz, recently tapped as Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate, sought to bolster his credentials amid swirling accusations. “In 2005, I felt the call of duty again, this time of being serviced to my country in the halls of Congress. My students inspired me to run for that office, and I was proud to make it to Washington,” Walz stated.

“I was a member of the Veterans Affairs Committee and a champion of our men and women in uniform. I am damn proud of my service to this country. And I firmly believe you should never denigrate another person’s service record. To anyone brave enough to put on that uniform for our great country, including my opponent, I just have a few simple words. I just have a few simple words. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.”

WATCH:

Vance, not missing a beat, took to X to voice his critique. “Hi Tim, I thank you for your service. But you shouldn’t have lied about it. You shouldn’t have said you went to war when you didn’t. Nor should you have said that you didn’t know your unit was going to Iraq. Happy to discuss more in a debate,” Vance wrote.

Vance has escalated his criticism of Harris’ running mate, prompting a swift response from Democrats who have rallied in support of the Minnesota governor. Both Vance and Walz have “served” —the former as a U.S. Marine Corps officer and the latter in the National Guard. Veterans and military personnel often adhere to a strict code that values straightforwardness and honesty about one’s service. Missteps in how service is presented can attract fierce criticism, as seen in Walz’s case.

“He has not spent a day in a combat zone,” Vance told reporters about Walz in Michigan last Wednesday. “Do not pretend to be something that you’re not … I’d be ashamed if I was him and I lied about my military service like he did.”

Vance served in the United States Marine Corps, which significantly shaped his early career and personal development. His time in the military included responsibilities like managing and handling media relations and other communication tasks, which were pivotal during his unit’s deployment to Iraq. Vance’s military service is a central aspect of his memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy,” where he discussed how his experiences in the Marine Corps helped him develop discipline and provided him with the educational opportunities that eventually led him to study at Ohio State University and Yale Law School.

Wednesday’s political trail will continue to be ablaze with action as Vance steps up to the mic in Michigan, while Walz swings through Denver before landing in Boston.

In a major blow to the Minnesota Vikings, the much-anticipated debut of quarterback J.J. McCarthy has been delayed until 2025 due to a season-ending knee injury. Head Coach Kevin O’Connell confirmed the unfortunate news on Wednesday, revealing that McCarthy’s recent surgery on his torn right meniscus was successful but revealed damage severe enough to necessitate a full repair, sidelining him for the entire 2024 season.

“It was a successful procedure, but it did reveal that a repair was necessary which will end J.J.’s 2024 season,” O’Connell explained to reporters. The setback comes at a tough time for McCarthy, who was drafted 10th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Last month, the young quarterback faced backlash from rival Chicago Bears fans after claims that he posted—then deleted—a pro-Trump video on his Instagram story. The alleged post came right after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

Despite the criticism, McCarthy reposted a video by former NFL player Robert Griffin III, calling for prayers for Trump. The move showed McCarthy’s support for the former president, aligning him with a significant portion of the NFL fanbase.

“Love you Viking nation. I’ll be back in no time. Amor fati,” McCarthy wrote on X on Tuesday.

McCarthy’s success peaked in 2023 when he was named Big Ten Quarterback of the Year, leading Michigan to a 15-0 season and their first national title since 1997. Over three seasons, McCarthy guided the Wolverines to three Big Ten championships and three playoff appearances, achieving an impressive career record of 27-1 as a starter—the highest winning percentage in NCAA Division I FBS history.

As the Vikings prepare for a season without their headline new starter, the team and its fans must regroup and realign their expectations.

In a major blow to the Minnesota Vikings, the much-anticipated debut of quarterback J.J. McCarthy has been delayed until 2025 due to a season-ending knee injury. Head Coach Kevin O’Connell confirmed the unfortunate news on Wednesday, revealing that McCarthy’s recent surgery on his torn right meniscus was successful but revealed damage severe enough to necessitate a full repair, sidelining him for the entire 2024 season.

“It was a successful procedure, but it did reveal that a repair was necessary which will end J.J.’s 2024 season,” O’Connell explained to reporters. The setback comes at a tough time for McCarthy, who was drafted 10th overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Last month, the young quarterback faced backlash from rival Chicago Bears fans after claims that he posted—then deleted—a pro-Trump video on his Instagram story. The alleged post came right after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

Despite the criticism, McCarthy reposted a video by former NFL player Robert Griffin III, calling for prayers for Trump. The move showed McCarthy’s support for the former president, aligning him with a significant portion of the NFL fanbase.

McCarthy’s success peaked in 2023 when he was named Big Ten Quarterback of the Year, leading Michigan to a 15-0 season and their first national title since 1997. Over three seasons, McCarthy guided the Wolverines to three Big Ten championships and three playoff appearances, achieving an impressive career record of 27-1 as a starter—the highest winning percentage in NCAA Division I FBS history.

As the Vikings prepare for a season without their headline new starter, the team and its fans must regroup and realign their expectations.

MSNBC host Joy Reid launched into an insane critique of what she described as former President Donald Trump’s agenda to combat what his advisors label “anti-white racism.” This comes on the heels of Trump’s upcoming speech in North Carolina, where he’s set to address economic issues—a crucial point of debate in the 2024 election race.

Known for her off-the-rails commentary, Reid took aim at Trump and his allies suggesting that their policies under the so-called “Project 2025” are a thinly veiled attempt to roll back racial progress in America. “Republicans like Vance and Trump advisor Stephen Miller, who is tangentially connected to Project 2025, have made it a point to block these disbursements,” Reid claimed.

She then peddled that the project’s goal is to “nationalize their long-term goal of putting a stop to what they call anti-white racism, which is just another way of saying we’re sick of America being held accountable for actual racism.”

According to Reid, the proposal would significantly alter the role of the Department of Justice, particularly the Civil Rights Division. “They would force the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division to refocus, moving away from affirmative discrimination and ensure, quote, ‘lawfulness’ which essentially means protecting the people who’ve had access and opportunity all along.”

WATCH:

The Presidential Transition Project, also known as Project 2025, kicked off in April 2022 without any ties to Trump’s campaign. In response to the Biden campaign’s strategies, Trump slammed the project, calling it “absolutely ridiculous and abysmal.” Project 2025 is detailed in a 900-page blueprint and was authored by the conservative Heritage Foundation.

Recently, Trump has distanced himself from the project, which has faced significant criticism during his latest White House bid. “I have no idea who is behind it,” the former president declared on social media.

Reid has long proclaimed falsehoods about her opponents, developing a reputation for unhinged rants and broadcast segments in which she goes off the rails. After former President Trump was shot, she even made the comparison that it was the “same” as when Joe Biden got COVID-19.

“These two men are both elderly,” Reid said during the RNC. “Donald Trump is an elderly man who, for whatever reason, was given nine seconds to take an iconic photo op during an active shooter situation. Weird situation, we’ll figure that out one day. But his survival of that and bouncing right back and going right to his convention is being conveyed in the media world as a sign of strength.”

WATCH:

“This current president of the United States is 81 years old and has COVID. Should he be fine in a couple of days? Doesn’t that convey exactly the same thing? That he’s strong enough, older than Trump, to have gotten something that used to really be fatal to people his age.”

“So if he does fine out of it and comes back and is able to do rallies, isn’t that exactly the same? I mean, it’s not exactly the same. It’s not the same incident, but it’s an elderly man coming through out of an illness. It should.”

ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit is bringing a refreshing splash of candidness to the table. Last week, jumping into what has become a polarizing discussion, Herbstreit boldly declared his stance against men competing in women’s sports.

Herbstreit, a long-standing fixture in the world of college football, originally shared his views on X, when posed with the seemingly simple question: “Do men belong in women’s sports?” He straightforwardly responded, “Of course not. Ridiculous question.” The tweet swiftly went viral, amassing over 3 million views.

Of course not. Ridiculous question https://t.co/SpwZ07zewv

— Kirk Herbstreit (@KirkHerbstreit) August 6, 2024

On Tuesday, Herbstreit appeared on “Don’t @ Me With Dan Dakich” on Outkick where he didn’t just reiterate his previous statement but doubled down. His reaffirmation that men should not compete in women’s sports came with an underlying message of common sense that many feel is missing from today’s heated debates. Herbstreit’s stance places him at odds with the more liberal leanings at ESPN, making his outspokenness all the more significant.

“I’ve been biting my tongue on a lot of topics for three years,” he said. “I happened to see somebody say what he said, and he said ‘Should men be able to play in women’s sports,’ and I just said ‘Ridiculous question, of course not.’ I didn’t dwell on it, I didn’t give a long answer, that was it. There was way more positive [reaction] than negative, I’m sure people were upset, but I think it’s kind of a no-brainer.”

“I don’t have a daughter, I have four sons, but if I had a daughter I’d probably be way more outspoken about the discussion and topic, but I just kind of made it sound like ‘why are you even asking this question?’”

Herbstreit is a prominent figure in the world of college football broadcasting, well-known for his analytical skills and insightful commentary. Herbstreit’s affinity for sports runs deep, influenced heavily by his father, Jim Herbstreit, who was a former player and captain at Ohio State and later an assistant coach. Kirk followed in his father’s footsteps, playing as a quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes from 1989 to 1993.

“I didn’t give a sh-t. I don’t really give a sh-t, at all. I’m done giving any shi-s, at all, about any of it,” Herbstreit continued. “It’s almost like there are two different sets of rules, and if you have a view that is a little bit more traditional, and you know I’m a Christian guy, it’s like there’s a different set of rules from that viewpoint. It’s hard to turn the cheek time after time after time, so yeah, I didn’t really care and don’t care at all.”

“Which I think is a good thing to get to that place, compared to ‘Oh gosh, I don’t want to get canceled, don’t want to get people upset,’ I just don’t give a sh-t.”

After graduating from Ohio State, Herbstreit transitioned to sports broadcasting, a field where he quickly made his mark. He joined ESPN and ABC Sports in 1996, where he has since become a staple of college football coverage. Herbstreit is perhaps best known as a co-host on ESPN’s “College GameDay,” a pre-game show that broadcasts from different college campuses each week during the football season. His ability to break down complex plays and his deep knowledge of the game have earned him respect and admiration from both peers and fans.

Beyond “College GameDay,” Herbstreit also serves as a color commentator for ABC’s Saturday night college football broadcasts and has contributed to various other ESPN platforms, covering marquee games and national championships. His work has garnered multiple accolades, including Emmy Awards for television sports broadcasting.

In a race against time before the election, a crew of the world’s elite hackers took over a Las Vegas conference room last weekend, turning it into a high-tech battleground. Their mission was to infiltrate and expose the vulnerabilities of the very voting machines set to be used in the upcoming election.

Called the Voting Village at the DEF CON hacker conference, the setup resembled more of a high-security tech lab than anything else, where these cybersecurity experts dissected and tested the machines to help election officials patch potential security flaws. Unfortunately, their critical findings might just miss the deadline to implement any changes, adding an element of suspense to the electoral process.

Politico reported:

In one sense, it’s the normal course of events: Every August, hackers at the DEF CON conference find security gaps in voting equipment, and every year the long and complex process of fixing them means nothing is implemented until the next electoral cycle.

But Election Day security is under particular scrutiny in 2024. That’s both because of increasing worries that foreign adversaries will figure out how to breach machines, and because President Donald Trump’s unsubstantiated allegations of widespread fraud in 2020 undermined confidence in the vote among his supporters.

As a result, many in the election security community are bemoaning the fact that no system has been developed to roll out fixes faster and worrying that the security gaps that get identified this year will provide fodder for those who may want to question the results.

“As far as time goes, it is hard to make any real, major, systemic changes, but especially 90 days out from the election,” Catherine Terranova, an organizer at the DEF CON “Voting Village” event, pointed out to the Politico. This, she noted, is particularly troubling during “an election year like this.”

DEF CON, one of the largest and most notable hacker conventions in the world, annually held in Las Vegas, has developed a unique niche in examining and improving election security. Their “Voting Village” is a dedicated space where cybersecurity experts converge to test the vulnerabilities of various pieces of election equipment. This initiative started in response to growing concerns about election security and has gained significant attention from both the public and officials.

At DEF CON, participants are encouraged to probe voting machines, identify potential security flaws, and develop strategies to mitigate these risks. This hands-on approach not only highlights existing vulnerabilities but also fosters a proactive dialogue among stakeholders about enhancing the integrity of elections. The findings from these sessions have sometimes been eye-opening, revealing weaknesses that could potentially be exploited to manipulate election outcomes.

The efforts at DEF CON have not gone unnoticed. Election officials, policymakers, and manufacturers have started to engage more with the cybersecurity community, taking the insights from these annual events into serious consideration. This collaboration has led to improvements in voting technology and protocols to ensure more secure elections. For instance, after vulnerabilities were demonstrated at DEF CON, several states revisited their election security strategies and initiated upgrades to their systems, emphasizing the importance of patching identified weaknesses.

This election cycle has already felt the impact. On Saturday that the presidential campaign of former President Trump was compromised in a hack, which the campaign claims was orchestrated by Iran.

In a race against time before the election, a crew of the world’s elite hackers took over a Las Vegas conference room last weekend, turning it into a high-tech battleground. Their mission was to infiltrate and expose the vulnerabilities of the very voting machines set to be used in the upcoming election.

Called the Voting Village at the DEF CON hacker conference, the setup resembled more of a high-security tech lab than anything else, where these cybersecurity experts dissected and tested the machines to help election officials patch potential security flaws. Unfortunately, their critical findings might just miss the deadline to implement any changes, adding an element of suspense to the electoral process.

Politico reported:

In one sense, it’s the normal course of events: Every August, hackers at the DEF CON conference find security gaps in voting equipment, and every year the long and complex process of fixing them means nothing is implemented until the next electoral cycle.

Former Arizona Governor Doug Ducey (R-AZ) announced his full support for former President Donald Trump and U.S. Senate hopeful Kari Lake, potentially reshaping the campaign landscape in Arizona. The endorsement marks a significant reconciliation within the Republican Party, as Ducey previously clashed with the MAGA-oriented faction during his tenure as governor.

“Much is on the line this election year & I’m encouraging all eligible Arizonans to vote & prioritize the issues that most affect our state & nation,” Ducey wrote on X. “I will be voting for Republicans up & down the ballot in November — and both Donald Trump and Kari Lake have my endorsement.”

His endorsement is a pivotal moment for Trump and Lake, who are looking to secure critical votes in a state that has shown fluctuating party loyalty in recent elections. The announcement came through a series of impactful tweets from Ducey, where he also voiced strong opinions on national issues such as inflation, global respect for America, the integrity of the Supreme Court, and the necessity of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

In 2014, Ducey won the governorship of Arizona, stressing fiscal conservatism and a pro-business agenda. During his time as governor, he focused on tax reforms, education funding, and economic development, which included significant efforts to attract tech industries to the state. He also took a strong stance on immigration, aligning with conservative policies.

Initially, during Trump’s presidency, Ducey supported many of Trump’s policies, particularly those related to immigration and economic initiatives. The alignment helped Ducey maintain a favorable stance among conservative voters in Arizona. However, the relationship experienced tension following the 2020 presidential election. As governor, Ducey was responsible for certifying Arizona’s election results, which showed a victory for Joe Biden. His decision to certify the results on November 30, 2020, coincided with a public challenge from Trump, who was actively disputing the election outcomes in key states, including Arizona. Trump criticized Ducey via social media, questioning his loyalty and accusing him of rushing the certification process.

“Differences aside, there is too much on the line and only a Republican in the White House and a majority in the House and US Senate can ensure it,” Ducey wrote in his 2024 backing.

Despite the pressure from Trump, Ducey defended Arizona’s election process in 2020. His stance created a noticeable rift between him and Trump. Post-presidency, Ducey has continued to navigate his role within the GOP carefully, balancing the broader party’s dynamics with the Trump-centric base.

Ducey’s backing arrives as both Trump and Lake face intense scrutiny and fervent opposition from both Democrats and factions within their own party. For Lake, who is running a high-stakes campaign for the Senate, Ducey’s endorsement could be particularly influential, rallying undecided Republicans and those who may have hesitated to support a candidate so closely aligned with Trump.

Since her last election, Lake has refused to accept her 2022 defeat to Democrat Katie Hobbs in the Arizona governor’s race, mirroring the former president’s denial of the 2020 presidential results against Joe Biden.

Kamala Harris’ campaign team has been caught red-handed running advertisements that closely resemble authentic news search results, baffling many media outlets. According to an Axios investigation, the campaign has been manipulating Google search ad headlines and descriptions to falsely imply endorsements from major news sources such as The Guardian, Reuters, and CBS News.

“While we understand why an organization might wish to align itself with the Guardian’s trusted brand, we need to ensure it is being used appropriately and with our permission. We’ll be reaching out to Google for more information about this practice,” claimed a Guardian spokesperson.

Axios reported:

It’s a common practice in the commercial advertising world that doesn’t violate Google’s policies, but the ads mimic real news results from Search closely enough that they have news outlets caught off guard.

According to Google’s ad transparency center, the Trump campaign isn’t running these types of ads, but this technique has been used by campaigns before.

The ads say that they are sponsored, but it’s not immediately clear that the text that accompanies real news links is written by the campaigns and not by the media publication itself.

Google said the ads don’t violate its rules, but platforms have in the past wrestled with whether this type of format can spread misinformation.

Facebook clamped down on advertisers tweaking text in Instant Article links back in 2017, citing a crackdown on misinformation. However, the Axios probe revealed the Harris campaign is purchasing search ads linked to news, ostensibly giving voters more context on Vice President Harris. Despite adhering to Google’s regulations, a technical snafu in Google’s Ad Library initially suggested some ads lacked required disclosures, though this was later confirmed as a glitch by Google.

The campaign maneuvers within these rules, but nearly a dozen major news outlets have been roped into this strategy since August 3rd. Outlets like The Independent UK, NPR, and CNN have seen their content co-opted into ads where altered headlines and texts suggest a biased news narrative supporting Harris. The digital advertising grey area forces tech giants to balance transparency with operational effectiveness. While Google believes its efforts suffice to prevent voter deception, the unexpected association of reputable media names with political campaigns could intensify ongoing debates over media impartiality and the murky ethics of digital political advertising.

Democrats have swiftly united behind Harris following Biden’s dropout announcement almost a month ago, in which he revealed via letter that he would not seek re-election and endorsed his Vice President to lead the party as the next presidential candidate.

Harris is now gunning to keep her campaign’s energy high this week, just before the Democratic National Convention swings into action next week. She’s hitting the trail with her VP pick, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who’s stepping out solo for the first time today to woo federal workers at their convention. Later this week, Harris will join forces with Joe Biden for a Thursday event, keeping the Democrat duo in the spotlight.

Colin Kaepernick hasn’t thrown a pass in the NFL for the last seven seasons, but he’s not ready to hang up his cleats just yet. The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, who became a lightning rod for controversy by taking a knee during the national anthem to protest racial injustice, is still itching for a comeback.

“We’re still training, still pushing,” Kaepernick disclosed to Sky Sports when asked about his NFL aspirations. “So hopefully. We’ve just got to get one of these team owners to open up.”

“I mean, it’s something I’ve trained my whole life for,” he explained. “So to be able to step back on the field would be a major moment, a major accomplishment for me. Also, I think it’s something that I could bring a lot to a team and help them win a championship.”

The quarterback’s readiness to return is palpable, and his message is clear: he believes he still has what it takes to make a significant impact on the field. Now, all that’s left is for an NFL team to make the call. However, not everyone feels that way.

Critics were quick to dismiss his ambitions as unrealistic, citing the lengthy hiatus since his last NFL game.  ProFootballTalk took a blunt stance, tweeting, “Colin Kaepernick says he still wants to play in the NFL. More than seven years since he last played, it comes off as delusional.” This sentiment echoed more skepticism surrounding the feasibility of Kaepernick’s NFL comeback after such a significant period away from the game.

In 2016, Kaepernick started kneeling during the national anthem. The move divided Americans nationwide, with many seeing it as disrespectful to the flag and the military. Kaepernick’s protest sparked a movement across the NFL, with numerous players joining in by taking a knee, raising fists, or sitting during the anthem.

The NFL initially struggled with how to handle the protests, oscillating between supporting players’ rights and appeasing upset fans and sponsors. This indecision culminated in 2018 when the NFL enacted a policy requiring players to stand for the anthem if they were on the field, though it allowed them to remain in the locker room as an alternative.

Kaepernick himself became a free agent in 2017 and has not been signed by any NFL team since, leading to accusations that the league has blackballed him due to his political views. In 2019, Kaepernick settled a collusion grievance with the NFL, where he alleged that team owners conspired to keep him out of the league.

Colin Kaepernick hasn’t thrown a pass in the NFL for the last seven seasons, but he’s not ready to hang up his cleats just yet. The former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, who became a lightning rod for controversy by taking a knee during the national anthem to protest racial injustice, is still itching for a comeback.

“We’re still training, still pushing,” Kaepernick disclosed to Sky Sports when asked about his NFL aspirations. “So hopefully. We’ve just got to get one of these team owners to open up.”

“I mean, it’s something I’ve trained my whole life for,” he explained. “So to be able to step back on the field would be a major moment, a major accomplishment for me. Also, I think it’s something that I could bring a lot to a team and help them win a championship.”

The quarterback’s readiness to return is palpable, and his message is clear: he believes he still has what it takes to make a significant impact on the field. Now, all that’s left is for an NFL team to make the call. However, not everyone feels that way.

Critics were quick to dismiss his ambitions as unrealistic, citing the lengthy hiatus since his last NFL game.  ProFootballTalk took a blunt stance, tweeting, “Colin Kaepernick says he still wants to play in the NFL. More than seven years since he last played, it comes off as delusional.” This sentiment echoed more skepticism surrounding the feasibility of Kaepernick’s NFL comeback after such a significant period away from the game.

Adding to the chorus of detractors, former NFL player Taylor Lewan expressed his disbelief on Twitter, stating, “It’s time to move on, this is wild.”
