When Chip Kelly was selected as the 49ers new coach last January, it seemed to be the the perfect coach-player marriage in the NFL. It paired the high-paced offense of Kelly with Colin Kaepernick’s unique physical tools and the strong arm that saw him get to a Super Bowl and 2 NFC Championship games in his first three seasons as a starting quarterback in the NFL. But the 2016 season has not gone according to plan for Kaepernick, after the 49ers' were unable to work out a trade for him last offseason and then declined to draft a quarterback in the NFL Draft last April in the early rounds.

Of all the countries in the world that this might describe today, China would be at the top of that list, but in fact I am describing Argentina at the beginning of the 20th Century, and their story had further to go.
