Nike’s controversial Dream Crazy ad, narrated by and starring former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, won an Emmy Award for best commercial at the Creative Arts Emmy Awards on Sunday.
The commercial, which first aired in September, features Kaepernick waxing philosophical about the nature of sports, human achievement, and social justice. More
You have to admit that it was quite the performance.
Considering that despite all the ‘white privilige’ and other fortune he’s enjoyed in his life that he can act like such an outraged, self-righteous asshole.
@Anonymous – and get paid million$ for it! USA! USA!
Just another Hollywood slap to middle America’s face.
That’s quite a stretch calling that boob a quarterback.
He can take that Emmy and ten dollars to Starbucks and get a crappuccino!
His personal are sol rating will exceed 100.00.
Jus’ like a baby GOrilla!
Programs showing how America is a racist nation have been winning Emmys + Oscars for decades! NOT NEWS other than a $millionaire won. But Greg Peck was very rich 60 years ago. $millionaire I know not; but very rich!
…Plato’s documentation of Socrates’ “Cave” analogy does a much better job of describing modern Leftist awards that I ever could…I recommend reading the whole thing at the link below, it will sound verrrry familiar to how Leftys see the world, but the relevant snippet is this…
(Concerning a hypothetical prisoner raised in a cave and exposed only to shadow puppets, then suddenly freed to face reality, then returned to where his fellow prisoners who had never seen the light languished)…
”
[Socrates] And if they were in the habit of conferring honors among themselves on those who were quickest to observe the passing shadows and to remark which of them went before, and which followed after, and which were together; and who were therefore best able to draw conclusions as to the future, do you think that he would care for such honors and glories, or envy the possessors of them? Would he not say with Homer,
Better to be the poor servant of a poor master,
and to endure anything, rather than think as they do and live after their manner?
[Glaucon] Yes, he said, I think that he would rather suffer anything than entertain these false notions and live in this miserable manner.
[Socrates] Imagine once more, I said, such an one coming suddenly out of the sun to be replaced in his old situation; would he not be certain to have his eyes full of darkness?
[Glaucon] To be sure, he said.
[Socrates] And if there were a contest, and he had to compete in measuring the shadows with the prisoners who had never moved out of the cave, while his sight was still weak, and before his eyes had become steady (and the time which would be needed to acquire this new habit of sight might be very considerable) would he not be ridiculous? Men would say of him that up he went and down he came without his eyes; and that it was better not even to think of ascending; and if any one tried to loose another and lead him up to the light, let them only catch the offender, and they would put him to death.
[Glaucon] No question, he said.”

…I don’t think they teach Plato any more, and I suspect I know the REAL reason why just from THIS…
Losers giving each other awards. It is all meaningless trash.
When you look at game photos of Kaepernick without his helmet on, what stands out is the total lack of expression on his face — as if there’s nothing going on in his brain at all
That makes him the perfect model for leftie millenials. There’s no independent thinking going on in his brain at all. He’s a perfect NPC. Pull a string in his back and out comes some progg spew
SO?…Barry Soetoro and Al Gore “won” Nobel prizes. I once won a Cracker Jack prize when I was eight years old.
So what about some fake award.
My boycott of all things NFL and Nike will continue until the end of time.
The “Emmys”. Should be “MeMys”, as in, nobody else matters except “Me”.
My hatred of the Entertainment industry just went up a notch. There is not much between that and the summit. Only another Clint Eastwood movie would keep my hate from going to the top.
Why is the entertainment industry so fond of undermining our country? The rotten filthy bastards. It makes my blood boil.
