Don't worry. The NFL will get more tax breaks and billionaire owners will get tax-payer funded stadiums whenever they ask and especially when they threaten to leave a city. A win-win for all, right?

I'd say a substantial portion of the overstuffed, jersey wearing, $10 a beer chugging honkies that make up most NFL crowds agree with every word Gruden said.

Well another problem I see from those emails

Goodell supposedly pressured the Rams to draft Michael Sam. So he wanted the Rams to fall on the sword and draft someone they didn’t want, and for them to spend money on, a player they may not have needed for the NFL to score political points. I wonder if the NFL reimbursed them for it? Of course they didn’t.

Who has the bone to pick for it all to come out (no pun) now?

He hit a enlisted man. They did not give a "****" about the language. When you are in the Military, you go to bed hearing every dirty word in the book. You woke up to it and you heard it all day. Just don't be a officer and especially a LT. Gen and hit an enlisted man.

this ... but it wasn't Third Army yet. He didn't take over 3rd until France later on and this was in Sicily when it happened

And those types may complain and say "it ain't fair" while being unable to emotionally separate themselves from the NFL. The NFL can do much of what it wants because the "I ain't never watching again" type of fans largely post that to social media, tell that to their friends and still watch the NFL. And our politicians love giving the NFL, teams and owners, lots of money and prizes from the taxpayers. But "that ain't right" and "nobody should lose a job" can be trotted out the next time something similar happens.

Snoop and Dre to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. Promise to sing all songs from The Chronic Album including "B*****es Ain't...." something or other I can't write here and songs that glorify murdering other young black men. Cameo with Ben Folds.

Yeah, but that's different.**

Has the NFL come to a conclusion about Deshaun Watson yet? Since we are on the topic of questionable behavior.

I also feel like Gruden went down pretty easy for a guy that was supposedly fighting for his job. The e-mails obviously weren’t a good look, but I still haven’t read anything that I would consider 100% damning either. Just seems like Gruden kind of shrugged and said… whatever y’all, I’m out

The emails were subpoenaed, not leaked. All these emails are coming from the Washington investigation for workplace misconduct. Gruden fired these emails off to then Washington team president, Bruce Allen.

What's going to be chef's kiss is if this Gruden thing becomes the only issue that come from this whole investigation into Washington.

Racial Slur ^^^^^ another example of the hypocrisy of social justice warriors. Also our society as this board won't delete this racist post.

Agree, privacy is under attack like never before

And it needs to stop. I don’t condone what he said but we should not be talking about him losing his job over this. It’s outrageous and quite frankly pretty scary where social media and the media in general is steering this country.

That's what freedom gets you. The ABILITY to say what you want... But it doesn't protect you from consequences of your choice... Why is this always forgotten about when discussing freedom?

Because there is a large mass of Americans who demand freedom & liberty without accepting the accompanying responsibility & consequences. We used to call such behavior "adolescence".

Gruden violated our new blasphemy laws that limit what you can say about newly designated, sacred groups. I love Mississippi and lived there for years. And I'm a Christian, but every so often I'd say something I thought was harmless about religion or some of my fellow Christians and someone would let me know how offended they were because I supposedly denigrated an entire category of the population. They felt a need to announce how offended they were and how I violated something they hold sacred. There was no chance of me being cancelled, though. Our culture is different now. And, before anyone misinterprets me, what Gruden said is different. I do think saying genuinely racist and sexist things should be condemned. And yes, I'm aware of double standards in the NFL and elsewhere in America.

Dude. That was a sarcastic line I wrote and not one intended to be historically accurate. BTW, he actually hit two guys and was yanked from the front only when Ike couldn't cover it up. But, well never mind. You missed the point.

I got your point. Use this when being sarcastic.**********

Not to be outdone on whataboutism, I'll submit so called "small government, conservative, personal freedom Republicans" celebrating Abbott (the government) telling private business what they can/can't do via executive order, demonstrating yuuuge government overreach.

We just want freedom to impose our will on others without anyone imposing their will on us. Que problema?***
