Colin Kaepernick Is Trending, But It's Not What You Think

So I'm scrolling through Twitter last night, minding my own business, when I come across a picture. I'm shocked by what I see, and go in to investigate more. That's when I hear it from my girlfriend. That awkward "you're busted" kind of question -- fellas, you know what I'm talking about.

"Uh, why are you zooming in on a naked picture of Colin Kaepernick?" she asked in a concerned manner.

Busted.

At this point, I've got some serious explaining to do. Yes, I was zooming in on a picture of a naked man, but it's not what you think -- I promise. You see, my girlfriend was actually proving my point by her question, and she didn't even realize it.

This photo in question was a naked man being escorted by police out of a Granda-Manchester United game on Thursday night. And guess what ... the man looks EXACTLY like Colin Kaepernick! Back me up here.

See, I'm not crazy.

Granted, it still made for an awkward conversation. But we got things cleared up rather quickly. It's just unfortunate that my girlfriend's little sister and her boyfriend were there to witness the entire exchange.

Now that I think about it, why did she have to call me out like that?

Anyways, I wake up this morning to find that Colin Kaepernick is trending on Twitter. After my recent experience, I know exactly why that's happening, but others don't. And now you know too. Whatever you do, don't zoom in. Trust me, it's not him.
