Awwww CC, fear is your *Friend!* Life wouldn't be so fun without it.

Good business move on his part. Probably advice from his agent.

Pro tip: Niners selected an openly conservative player last year with the 9th overall pick. The reality is nobody cares as long as people keep their political opinions to themselves. If they can play and keep their nose out of trouble, we need them. All that matters is making the 49ers great again.

M4ga

Bosa + 49ers = M4GA!

This was a business decision. It's becoming clearer and clearer that he's going to be a Niner. If he was going to ARI, it wouldn't be a problem, and may even be a benefit to endear to the new fan base. But not in SF. So he's downplaying some of his right wing, social media stuff so he doesn't have to get grilled on it from the media.

Why do people assume Trump is super beloved here? The state overall leans conservative but more of a libertarian form of conservative. Its also a border state that depends heavily on trade with Mexico.


The bottomline is you can believe whatever you like, just don't do stupid stuff that makes you look like an ass. If Bosa was repeating everything Trump said, it would be a cause for concern but most of what we are talking about was stuff tweeted two years ago when he was 19.


He's clearly looking to show that he can adapt to whatever environment he ends up in which I think shows great maturity on his part. I don't think he'll have a single issue wherever he goes.

Love that he knew the overreaction it would cause with the 49ers fan base and judging by this forum he was dead on by how overly sensitive some people are.

I'm sure there are trump supporters everywhere... but on football teams... even if they're top 1 percent and are republicans they would not support trump ..... trump is a different animal and I'm sure most black players want nothing to do with him

Hopefully he's dead on, when he has to guess whether it's a draw play or play action pass on third down in a playoff game!

my issue,. i lack mental toughness. so i am sure i will look and see some comments like,, do not draft him,. bosa is a racist, i will burn his jersey. he is exactly what we need. anyone who is worried about some distraction most likely are the people who will generate or create some drama if he is drafted by us.

That's all that matters. If he's a good player. Now if he's breaking his own child's arm or kicking woman when they are down then I can understand not wanting him. Oh wait there's people who want those guys.

Of course it matters!! This is the San Francisco 49ers for God's sake and not some southern team.

Bosa called Kap "a clown" and siding with Trump's ridiculous extreme far right views. You do remember he called all the players who knelt "sons of b*tches" and called for their firing right?

You also do realize our owner aka Jed York's stance on the matter right? First off, any 9ers player was allowed to kneel during the national anthem before the new policy. Secondly, Jed even abstained from the owners vote on this stupid new NFL national anthem policy. This ain't the Dallas Cowboys!!

And even if we have Conservative players, I think they know better to keep their mouths shut. Bosa is the first time I have heard of any potential or existing 49ers player being pro-Trump.

Just remember this is a San Francisco team and you need to know what values people in San Francisco believe in. And you don't need to live there neither. You just need to know what this team is about.

It should be about winning games, Kaepernick made it about something else.
This makes me like Bosa even more, so don't go including me in your political ideology, not everyone here is a left wing whack job. And no I don't support most of Trumps tweets
