Bummer. Fake news.

[George II]

5. That's great news, good for him. Hope he kicks ass. I may now root for Seattle!!!

[spanone]

6. K&R...

[underpants]

7. Damn!

That's awesome.

[gratuitous]

8. Conservative meltdown in 3 . . . 2 . . . 1

From the same folks who didn't see anything wrong with their hero, the Emperor Trump, hold up the 75th Anniversary D-Day Commemoration so he could chat with the nazi Laura Ingraham and slag on his enemies back home.

[Odoreida]

10. A corporate shill who promotes slavery is OK if Trump doesn't like him for some reason? n/t

[malaise]

26. ROFL

I'll drink to that

[cwydro]

51. If the shitstain reads DU, he'd be having a big laugh because this is fake news.

And all these people are falling for it.

[Odoreida]

9. Kaepernick? The one who promoted slave labor in Vietnam?

Pro football is a form of corruption and so is college football.

We'd be better off without it.

[TwilightZone]

11. That's a fake Twitter account.

Check out the comments.

And this link:

[eissa]

12. Fake news

I believe the original story was from a satire account.

Kap has settled with the NFL, so his playing days are effectively over.

[Leghorn21]

15. eissa, you are totally right!!!

I knew he’d settled but thought he was back in

Thanks for digging deeper than I did!!

It was GREAT while it lasted though

wannhhh

[TwilightZone]

21. Yep, it's a parody.

The first hint was that "Colin" is spelled incorrectly.

The second was that the account linked to a prior story about said account being a fake, right in the first few comments.

[Hoyt]

13. Here's to Kap and Seattle. Edit: Darn, it sounded good before reality set in.

[Blue Owl]

14. Mike Pence might as well just leave now

n/t

[Bigredhunk]

16. Not real

Fake. Bummer.

No coverage on PFT or ESPN. Somebody's having a laugh at us.

[KPN]

17. K&R. Great news. Glad to hear. Good on

Pete carrol and the Seahawks for bringing onboard and back into the league even though they have their starter Russell Wilson. About time someone finally stepped up and did the right thing. Not surprised it was the Seahawks. Their players and coach supported Kap from the get go.

Best thing. This has got to be really irritating the fat bastard occupying our WH illegitimately.

[StarfishSaver]

18. YAY!!!

[cwydro]

47. It's not true.

Surprised you’d fall for that.

[marble falls]

19. About time.

[demmiblue]

20. Fake... dude doesn't even have 4,000 followers.

[edbermac]

22. Delete this, it's a fake account.

[Brother Buzz]

23. Here's some more fake news:

Richard 'Dick' Tator, Harvard class of 2005, wrote for The Harvard Lampoon

[Bonx]

25. I knew this was going to happen. Great to hear.

[bearsfootball516]

27. It's not real, people.

And posters on DU wonder how conservatives fall for fake news so easily.

[demmiblue]

40. No kidding. n/t

[Scarsdale]

28. GREAT news!

Congratulations to Colin. He was punished for doing the right thing. He knelt for his principles, and was punished. Great to finally get back to work.

[bearsfootball516]

29. It's fake news

[Kurt V.]

31. well hell. thanks

[democratisphere]

30. Finally. Great news!

[CatWoman]

32. wonderful news!!!!

[ffr]

33. Show 'em Kaep!!!

[sop]

35. Don't tell Trump it's fake news, he'll spend the whole night tweeting about it

[left-of-center2012]

36. So many posting, celebrating fake news

They're celebrating a fake news story.

[TwilightZone]

38. In fairness to those celebrating...

The OP should have put thirty seconds of effort into confirming the "story" prior to posting.

[cwydro]

48. DU is frequently gullible. I still remember when someone posted that Nancy Reagan was

supporting Hillary.

OP should self-delete.

[left-of-center2012]

53. OP should self-delete.

yep

[BlueJac]

37. Fake news

Shit

[demmiblue]

39. I am always amazed to see the copious amount of recs...

after numerous posters pointed out that this is false. 78 and climbing (when I first posted, it was 47).

[Igel]

46. The death of concern for truth and accuracy

has one constant refrain: "I want to believe."

[ismnotwasm]

41. Please delete.

This is not true

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

42. Nothing on Seahawks.com, ESPN or Field Gulls which is the Seahawks SBNation blog

Clearly fake news

[flyingfysh]

49. why are we all discussing a fake story?

There is no link, and no link anywhere on reputable sources indicating that this is real. I find nothing about it on Espn.

We should know better than to be taken in by trolls.

[CentralMass]

52. That is great for him but the Seahwaks are atill one of my least favorite teams.

[kpete]

54. I was told his story was a fake

Deleting

[liberalmuse]

55. Bless my Seahawks!

Yessssss!

[demmiblue]

56. 92 and rising.
