Loved this image on twitter, especially hearing that Kaepernick was trying to trademark his stupid move.

Kaepernincking: Step 1, Kiss own bicep in idiotic fashion. Step 2, hire trademark lawyer. Step 3, ???. Step 4 = profit?

Wilsoning: Step 1: Volunteer time to help a kid fighting rare bone cancer. Step 2: Repeat every week same time same place at Seattle Children's Hospital.

No but Seriously I dont see anything wrong with his celebrating or the trademarking, the celebration is corny but I don't see the big deal in it. I don't get why people act as if athletes shouldn't try to make money on their phrases/likeness. Would this be brought up if the league decided to sell the shirts themselves instead

Oh, I don't begrudge him trying to make money.

But I do allow myself the right to make fun of him for acting lame, then immediately attempting to extract maximum profit from his lameness.

I think this is getting kind of ridiculous

How can you trademark kissing your bicep?
Wasn't there like a WWE wrestling who kissed his bicep all the time???

Guys... can't we agree that the niners and seahawks are both good teams and they are both good promising younger players in their own right. The obsession with the hatred around here against the 49ers has gotten out of control.

This isn't even in the NFL forum.

You can't...which is probably why he isn't trying to trademark the move. His people are only trying to trademark the phrase "Kaepernicking".

Don't you guys bother reading the whole article LOL?

Why are you guys so hung up on this anyways?

Probably for the same reason you're hanging out on a SEahawks board on a Saturday night when your team doesnt play the seahawks for like 8 months. Because we're rivals who dont like each other.

I dont even read Seahawks articles, i just skimmed through the him.

Probably because its foreign, whens the last time a NFL player trademarked a phrase they created?
Deion "Primetime" sanders but he made an music Album though so thats expected.

9er fans - I'm not saying Kaepernick is a bad player. I'm saying his actions make it very easy to think he's a tool.

Good stuff. Not that I really care, but "Kaepernicking" is just about the dumbest thing I've seen/heard. I would actually be kind of embarrassed by it, in all honesty.

Always have, always will prefer professional athletes who act like they've been there and don't celebrate.

And that's all I have to say about that.

It's awesome that we have Whiners on here to defend them every time we so much as make a comment indicative of their douchedom.

Haha, yeah. I have better things to do than to do the same on a 49ers forum.

So maybe we should stop obsessing about them. So they go away. Just a thought.

It doesn't work that way.

I think it's like vampires or werewolves or one of those where you have to kill the original one and then they all die.

So you're saying we have to sacrifice Joe Montana? (For you 49er fans, he was the quarterback of the team that you've recently latched on to, back in the 1980's.)

Doubt they go away but it is pretty pathetic that the main forum usually has a few 9ers post everyday. We weren't this fixated with the Rams when the team was trying to get over that hump. Though we did usually have the "us and the Rams" are the only teams in the NFC West type bragging.

I guess we are lucky that the Seahawks didn't slip into obscurity with the Rams after XL. Was looking like it would be Cardinals/9ers until Kurt retired. We were like the humans against Skynet, until John Connor (Pete/John) showed the team how to fight back. (okay, I am corny).


EDIT: Just wanted to point out that this same thread already existed in the Shack but maybe the OP wanted an non-PG version here in the main forum.

Somebody get ahold of Will Ferrell and tell him to contact his attorneys, so he can trademark the phrase "ticket to the gunshow" when he kisses his biceps
