The National Football League (NFL) is miles apart from the Australian Open both literally and conceptually. There is no reason any decent news reporter will know that and not confuse both sports unless he is an opposite of that.
Tennis player Nick Kyrgios was holding a pretty relaxed news conference following his straight-sets defeat of Rogerio Dutra Silva in the first round of the Australian Open. Then, a liberal lost-in-his-agenda journalist ventured a peculiar question about former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who began selfishly kneeling during the national anthem in 2016 to promote his popularity.
The question to Kyrgios ran as follows:
"You’re friends with the American football player Colin Kaepernick and supportive of him in the past," the reporter asked. "What are your thoughts on his not being signed by an American football team this season?
"I don’t think I’ve ever spoken to him in my life," Kyrgios replied.
"But what are your thoughts about that?" the reporter persisted.
"I mean, I don't even ... Where does that question even come from?" Kyrgios shot back. "We're at the Australian Open, man." Immediately afterward, Kyrgios ended the news conference.
