I really like this guy. Look him up on the world wide web and read some of his work, specifically this letter:

Chris Kluwe: An Open Letter to Emmett Burns

Cherry quotes from this one

"you come across as a narcissistic fromunda stain"

"the mental gymnastics your brain has to tortuously contort itself through to make such a preposterous statement are surely worthy of an Olympic gold medal (the Russian judge gives you a 10 for "beautiful oppressionism"). "

"They won't magically turn you into a lustful cockmonster."

I Was An NFL Player Until I Was Fired By Two Cowards And A Bigot

Fuck Chris Kluwe. This guy openly defies his organization's requests to stop making waves, gets cut for being bad at his job and overpaid. Doesn't say anything about "bigotry" until after it's clear his career is over and he will never play again. Now all of a sudden Prifer is a "bigot" and made remarks. Bullshit. If this really bothered Kluwe why didn't he speak out when he was still with the team? Why didn't he speak out when he was cut? Because Chris Kluwe is a coward. Kluwe wanted a career in the NFL more than any supposed "principles" he may or may not have. Now that his career is long over he "speaks out." He can go fuck himself.

I think you can argue that he was overpaid, but I don't think he was bad at his job. His net was actually better than Locke's. And a 5th round pick for a punter is a steep price to pay.

Heck, they paid way more for the Josh Freeman experiment than they did on Kluwe.

Icky nailed it, and Kluwe is crazy if he thinks an NFL team will stick their neck out for a PUNTER who can't stop rocking the boat, even if his views are just.

Kluwe comes across as a self-important/righteous if anything IMO. Get over yourself dude.
