Cost nothing? His identity was and (based on his constant whining) still is football. His protest cost him millions and millions. Half the country thinks he's an unpatriotic asshole and, with the exception of Nike, nobody wants a damn thing to do with him. I don't consider his protest successful, especially when you consider virtually none of his "pie in the sky objectives" have materialized (there's a shock) and the perception being pushed by liberals in the media of his cause today.
A better question is: How is it considered anything other than ineffective?
Extremely well said!! Kapernik lost MILLIONS in a potential contract and trade. His little tirade made him someone that NO ONE was willing to take due to his demands to keep protesting. In other words, NONE of his actions were about "team" but 100% about himself and his "cause" that few if any actually supported. And now, we have discovered that all the "money" he helped raise for BLM was basically EMBEZZLED by their "leaders". THAT is not in dispute.
Liberals are spoiled children, miserable, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic & useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats ~O'Rourke
The Democratic Party seems intransigent on their position of keeping the party ‘woke,’ detached, exclusionary, and totally insane.
