of the year one.al but it s pretty irrelevant, because the only people who read time are the people who readea time are liberals in the upper east side and the parents of the writer s. greg: it reminds me of the person who made a lot of money, didn t really go pay too g much attention to the world aroundd him and all of a sudden thought that he had to be relevant. he didn t want to be seen as of the jocks, and he found this new celebrity. he got new friends, got a new, cool status. he s on the cover of a magazine. but at the expense of his team and this sport, so he made a trade. it was really about him. the thing is like kiersten w said, it s so easy. all he did was kneel down, and t now he s a national phenomenon.l he doesn t really influence anybody except for people who write articles like this. see, they look at him and say, well, of course is influential look at these 15 articles i wrote about him last year. it bums me out. as a 49er fan, pretty much a lifelong one.
