    Does Kaepernick fit in the Black QB theory?
    Not sure what to think here, seems it would be an auto wager on Balt.


    Colin Kaepernick was born on November 3, 1987 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He was adopted as an infant and is the youngest child of his parents, Rick and Teresa. The question of Kaepernick’s ethnicity comes up often and can be simply addressed in that Colin is of bi-racial descent (African American and European) and was adopted by caucasian parents. As a youngster, his family moved from Wisconsin to Turlock, California where he attended elementary, junior, and John H. Pitman High School there.

    Just barely. A mixed race bible beater raised in a white family. He is a better passer than any black QB I've ever seen though. Any

      I think the whole mixed race, adopted by whites offsets the black QB issue. Im still on the fence though. My whole Super Bowl betting strategy will be based on wether I think he is, or is not.

        Has he spoken on the issue? When in doubt a personal statement of race identification decides

              Kid, I assumed the line around 4 and wondered if it might be a bit more for openers. The crazy line difference between SF being a weak 3 @ home to GB and then -4 on the road told me that the public perception went over the top when they beat GB the way they did.

              You might be right with your play. I wonder if Balt. can look better against the read option than they did against Wash. Yes, no Lewis in that one and they held RG3 in check but Morris ran for about 130. I think that game will help them a lot. Also, they looked in cruise control late which allowed Wash. to rally.

              If SF can't put pressure on Flacco, Balt. will be a handful. I think that is the key.

              Good Luck with the Balt. ML. Probably either team can win so why not take the + number makes a lot of sense.

                      Books had SF -1 vs NE before the Bal/NE game

                      Baltimore was +1.5 vs Atlanta............
                      Does not matter what the line is, Niners win.

                          Lville, -1, really?

                          Defense favors SF. Running game favors SF. You could QB a push.

                          Coaching push.

                                                      "Does Kaepernick fit in the Black QB theory?"

                                                      Whats considered the "Theory"? Just curious because I thought there was no African American QB to ever have won a SuperBowl, but I was completely wrong.......

                                                      Doug Williams is the first black QB to ever have won a SB in 1988.......

                                                      Damn I thought this "when will a black QB EVER win the SB" has been going on for years?

                                                      I was wrongly mis-informed .

                                                      So What "Black QB Theory"???? Small % of winning?

                                                          I assume that any theory rooted in race is not actually dependent on skin pigmentation, but the cultural values in which one was raised. Kaepernick was raised exclusively in white christian culture, and thus, would not count as black for the purpose of this exercise.

Nazi-esque. He was adopted by two good parents, he was not raised w/o father in a bad community which is what I imagine accounts for much of the poor leadership and bad decision-making in your aforementioned theory.

                                                                    Oh ya and as you know, parents are white if that helps.
