He's coached to be short with the media because Harbaugh is paranoid. Kaepernick is emulating him. His answers relating to football are always short. Answers relating to other things are usually much warmer and are accompanied by a smile.
This thread is full of ignorance the likes of which I'd expect on the 49ers webzone. Congratulations. You have sunk to their level.
Kind of how the media was lightheartedly asking him about his time With Russell Wilson on the Madden set and their bet about the eyebrow...and Kaepernick just stared coldly at them and said "I don't know, I only met him that day...you'd have to ask him about that."
That was at least longer than some of his other answers. Even though there was no smile. And certainly not warm.
I just haven't seen the "warm interviews" you are talking about.
Ah, the old "I have not seen it personally therefore what you claim never happens" argument. Here you go, from the very video that everyone is quoting from in this thread (@ about 3:25 I think):
As I said. A lot of ignorance in this thread. Of course, I don't blame you; you guys are Seahawks fans. I don't expect you to know a lot about the 49ers. That said, if a 49er fan points something out that you might be incorrect on due to the fact that you don't watch 49er videos or read their articles very much, it would behoove you to bring some evidence to the table if you want to claim they are lying or full o'crap. Just saying.
*by the way, I didn't say he had a lot of "warm interviews," I said he has given warm answers with that ridiculous smile on questions that don't relate directly or even vaguely to football and scheme.

I don't remember Alex Smith being a jerk to the media. Just sayin'.
Actually, Alex Smith started getting shorter and a little more combative during media interviews at precisely the time he started becoming a respectable quarterback. He was never mean, but he did start getting a little more attitude in his answers- "well I just managed myself to a victory" comes to mind.
