NFL Prospect Nick Bosa Deletes Trump-supporting, Kaepernick And Beyonce -criticizing Tweets Ahead Of
Former Ohio State pass rusher Nick Bosa, arguably the best player in the 2019 NFL Draft, used to be a frequent tweeter, unafraid to speak his mind on all manner of topics.
But if you follow Bosa’s @nbsmallerbear account, you might have noticed that he’s become more restrained in recent months.
‘I might end up in San Francisco’
Bosa brought attention to his Twitter feed with opinions like “Beyoncés music is complete trash,” as he did in 2016.
He also posted, “[Colin] Kaepernick is a clown” in 2016, and “Black panther worst marvel movie of all time [sic]” in 2018, and tweets in support of President Donald Trump.
But all of those tweets have since been deleted.
Why?
“I had to. There is a chance I might end up in San Francisco,” Bosa told Kevin Van Valkenburg for an ESPN the Magazine feature posted online Tuesday.
Of course, Kaepernick is no longer with the 49ers, though the city of San Francisco is one of the most socially progressive cities in America, and has been for decades.
Kaepernick may be a clown to Bosa, but at least he had the courage of his conviction and stood his ground, even when it became clear it could - and eventually did - cost him his livelihood and as he drew the ire of those who demonized him.

Chickenshit. If you're going to voice your opinions on Twitter, stand by those supposed convictions.
Regardless, nothing is ever actually deleted from Twitter and if he did get picked by the Niners, there would be guaranteed protests at every home game, at least.
Maybe Millennials will start to see the disadvantages of oversharing?

@R1 I agree completely. He knows there is a possibility that his black teammates may give him the cold shoulder and he may lose out on some endorsements because of those tweets. Colin Kaepernick lost his entire NFL career due to his political views, yet Nick's ass was too scared to stand by some tweets? I saw a lot of his tweets and he had a history of attacking things related to black culture, yet would always show support for Trump. He's entitled to his opinion but the fact that he refused to stand by those opinions is very telling.

He’s right though, Beyoncé’s music is trash.

Not to mention he told an interviewer that he did it, and why. If you're an asshole who wants to scrub your social media, you don't announce it to the world.

I actually think the SF comment was cover to hide his real motivation for deleting the tweets. More likely than not he will be drafted by a team whose fans will embrace a Deplorable, especially if he helps the team win.
His black teammates, on the other hand, may be tempted to beat the shit out of him. Fear of that is what probably caused him to panic.

Most black NFL players are Uncle Tom shoe shiners, happy to keep their mouths shut and collect that paycheck. They don’t give a shit. Out of the thousands of black players in the NFL, only a small handful were willing to cause trouble with all the anthem protests and what not.
He’ll be fine, even if he left the tweets up. In America’s eyes, there’s nothing wrong with mixing sports and politics so long as it’s good ol’ boy apple pie flag waving conservatism. Yee-haw!

@R13 he has a history of bashing black anything black, like Beyonce, Colin Kaepernick, Dwayne Wade , Draymond Green and The Black Panther Movie. When you add that in with his support of Trump, you probably have a racist on your hands.

This will go over [italic] very [/italic] well with an audience reeling with the NFL having bribed Colin Kaepernick to go away rather than sign him with another team. The ratings sure won't plunge again this season.

No, I think he's made it very clear why he deleted those tweets - and it isn't because he suddenly repented or stopped believing them.

If he made the decision to delete the tweets, he should have deleted them and kept his mouth shut, he brought a lot of attention on himself.

Then you would be wrong.
The NFL draft has very strict mechanics and guidelines. Players and rosters along with selections have both money and strategy behind them based on what the team needs and what they think they can get from other teams. Some of these contracts are outrageous with multi-million dollar deals for multiple years. You simply cannot financially afford to be someone who teams won't touch. Additionally, a player needs to play to get top dollar. Of course, if he plays poorly as many top draft choices have done, his value would decline - but in either case, getting stranded or cut won't be good for him financially.
Finally, while he notes he could end up in SF (probably based on where he expects to be selected during the draft, the particular roster needs of that team, and where SF falls in the process), other teams will be watching. Not being selected when he's the obvious choice may also negatively impact his overall selection by other teams. If SF thinks he's such a liability (either PR or because teammates think he's a douche) that may impact him in the wallet.

How many SF queers follow football? I would expect a vast majority of 49er fans are Trumpsters. Assumptions that everyone in SF is a liberal is as erroneous as the assumption that everyone in the Midwest is a Deplorable.

Um, I though Kaepernick opted out of his $13 million per year salary, not the other way round? I also read he refused Denver's $7 million per year salary offer? And then didn’t he also receive a multi-million dollar deal with Nike?
