While many think exiled quarterback Colin Kaepernick made his own bed, liberals continue to blame his ongoing unemployment on systematic racism within the NFL. However, Baltimore Ravens legend Ray Lewis has poked a huge hole in that narrative.
On Tuesday, Lewis revealed on Inside the NFL that the Ravens were all set to sign Kaepernick as a back-up to Joe Flacco until Kaepernick’s girlfriend, radio host Nessa Diab, leveled an extremely racist meme at Lewis:

The meme compares Lewis and Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti to Samuel L. Jackson’s and Leonardo DiCaprio’s characters in the Quentin Tarantino film “Django Unchained.” In that film, DiCaprio plays a cruel slave owner; Jackson is his fiercely loyal house slave. In effect, Diab accused Lewis of being an Uncle Tom.
But why did Diab take such a racist shot at Lewis, someone who was trying to help Kaepernick? Well, just two days prior, Lewis posted a video to Twitter suggesting to Kaepernick that he keep his social activism efforts private as he searches for another opportunity in the NFL:

That seems like perfectly sound advice. However, it seems Diab would prefer that Kaepernick remain a ridiculed outcast.
As for Lewis, he was understandably shocked by Diab’s racism:
“[Kaepernick’s] girl goes out and put out this racist gesture and doesn’t know we are in the back office about to try to get this guy signed. Steve Bisciotti has said it himself: ‘How can you crucify Ray Lewis when Ray Lewis is the one calling for Colin Kaepernick?'”
On a related note, this is not the first time Diab has landed Kaepernick in hot water. In Sept. 2016, rumors swirled that Diab – an Egyptian-American Muslim who was raised in Saudi Arabia – had converted Kaepernick to Islam. Kaepernick denied the rumors – and contended that they were only started due to Islamaphobia caused by Donald Trump.
Colin Kaepernick: not winning on or off the field.
Share this if you think Colin Kaepernick’s career is over for good!
Is Colin taking classes from Tesla, CEO because he’s having a bad week.

They call it karma! ,just rewards ?
Why is Colin Kaepernick being held responsible for, and being punished for, the actions of another person? Kaepernick does not control what Nessa Diab thinks or does. It would be wrong for him to attempt to control what she does. So what does Colin have to suffer simply because of his associating with someone who said something impolite?
Oh. He’s a handy scapegoat.
Got a new respect for Ray Lewis..
Well, that is pretty racist.
i love happy endings!!!
I agree that liberals are often idiots, at least insofar as they are liberals. (They might be good with math, even if they are uninformed or simple-minded about the dynamics of human affairs.)
But whom are you calling “liberal idiots”? Colin? Nessa?
Kaepernick & his ignorant girlfriend are both anti-American whining racists & this stunt just proved it! I sincerely hope he never gets hired again to play football & hope the station that employs his girlfriend fires her! Liberal left idiots!!
