Sio Moore Calls Colin Kaepernick a Chump
By Ernie Padaon
Oakland Raiders LB Sio Moore wasn’t done talking trash to Colin Kaepernick after the team won on Sunday. He had to post something on his Instagram account about the game and called Kaepernick a chump in the text of the post. You can check that out here.
Oakland Raiders head coach Tony Sparano talked about the situation:
“I guess it has kind of got out there and it seems to have gotten some attention, but I just know that Sio plays with a lot of passion,” Sparano said. “A young player, plays with a lot of passion, and that part of it I like. I need to sit down, I need to visit with Sio, find out exactly what went on, but I know there was a lot of jawing going on out there and it wasn’t just one-sided.”
These players are passionate and are jawing back and forth on the field all game long. It is part of the rivalry between the two teams in the Bay and it happens in all games.
There is going to be trash talk back and forth and when a team that has been struggling to get wins like the Raiders, beats a quality opponent, they will let them hear about it. The Raiders might not have a ton of wins this year, but they have done a nice job of knocking out some teams that are fighting for playoff spots. Both the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs are now on the outside looking in at the playoffs. You can thank the Raiders for that.
Sio Moore can celebrate. The best trash talk is the scoreboard. I don’t know the history between Sio and Kaep, but there definitely had to be a lot of jawing going back and forth for Sio to post something after the game about it. Now which one of the two will stop the talking back and forth and what will happen the next time the two teams meet?
