<p>49er Colin Kaepernick made headlines beyond the football world when he started his National Anthem protest during his games. Well, he is now back in the news after many people are pissed off that the football player decided not to vote and one person who is especially mad?&#8230; Stephen A. Smith.</p>
<p>Smith went off on Kaepernick during his interview on ESPN First Take, even going as far as to call him a &#8221; flaming hypocrite&#8221; who is &#8220;lucky to still be in the league right now.&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked if Kaepernick betrayed his cause, Smith replied, &#8220;As far as I’m concerned, Colin Kaepernick is absolutely irrelevant. I don’t want to see him again. I don’t want to hear from him again. I don’t want to hear a damn word about anything that he has to say about our nation, the issues we have, racial injustices, needing change.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you thought Smith was finished, you were wrong, he was just getting revved up.</p>
<p>&#8220;It is shameful. It is absolutely shameful,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Him of all people, because of the position he took, because of the attention he brought to the issues — the fact that you don’t even have the decency to go to the polls and activate yourself in this election, as our president said, is a damn shame.&#8221;</p>
<p>He goes on to send a message to the media also, &#8220;I would personally make a request to the media in this nation, wherever he is, if he ain&#8217;t on the football field trying to throw another damn incomplete pass, do me a favor and make sure one thing, take the camera away from him!&#8221;</p>
<p>He goes to on to rip his stats on the field and lets just say its ruthless!! Do you agree with Stephen on this one? Check out the rest of his rant and lets chat below!</p>
