in a sarcastic way. just assumed you were making a joke, since TBN probably isn't any more on the ball than anyone of us here. They were obviously caught off guard by Manny being cut since they projected him as a starter.

that's my point. Nobody knows. everyone is just guessing. The most sense is that he was beat out for the job. 'nuff said.

But then we can't make ill informed conclusions to fill up a week long post. and he didn't get suspended. So far, everyone is wrong.

You mean , everyone is just guessing?

Why does everyone assume a 1 game suspension? The NFL gets a lot of grief for going 'light' on domestic violence suspensions. I'm guessing if the accusation is true, it's more than 1 game.

I did say "if he's ready" - I'm guessing he will be able to train a few weeks before playing in games. He'll likely rotate like most of the DL does. Maybe a bit more early on.

Why not? He's a first round pick that was expected to start prior to his surgery, If he's ready, get him in there.

Maybe the coaches didn't think he was good enough. Everyone just annointed him as the replacement for Mario, and it just seemed odd to me. Even with Mario's crap season last year, to think Lawson would just be given the job as a suitable replacement never made any sense to me. And I like Lawson, he's a decent player. I'd have to think that's probably not the case.

Unless the coaches see this differently than you do. And you really can't say he was our starter, since he wasn't.

not at $2.4 million, that's horrible value for a backup.

you continue to ignore your falsehood in stating Tamir had a gun, and missing the huge point that it was a toy gun, a very appropriate toy for a child. If you continue to promote false statements to support your argument , there's no point to continue this.

I think you have waded into a turf of race where you haven't done any work and your statements also mean absolutely nothing now.

I bet it still means a lot to the people that are helped by his contributions - but please continue to try to discredit anything positive that he does.

He needs to do what he is told and then he needs to support only the charities approved of by TBD posters.

No strawman argument here. This is an actual case. You asked why it is glossed over that he wasn't questioned for having a gun, you totally ignore the fact that it was a toy gun, something pretty common for 13 year olds to play with. You don't want to address that the premise of your excusing of the cops shooting is totally false.

Right, black kids aren't allowed to play with toy guns. And if they cop isn't sure, just drive up and shoot him in the chest. Case closed. Do you know for a fact that he hasn't tried to help in the community? Or just looking for another way to discredit him?

Innocent kid dead, old news. Move on. you're making me feel old now.

so basically with you , it's all in the timing. Statute of limitation on protesting?

Can you back up that statement with any factual evidence, or are you still just trying to discredit him any way possible.

look how so many are flying off the handle about Kaep, but blacks are supposed to be quiet when cops get away with shooting a 13 year old black kid with a toy gun? fair enough, but still not too long ago. Nothing to feel too good about.

the 60's. Get off the blogs and read a history book. I did some quick research, only a handful in the 50's and 60's. so not too bad, but still not good.

nice of you to edit my full statement to make it fit your argument. Do you work at Fox news?

Maybe not as strongly as now. Lot of crap hitting the fan lately. But you don't know and you're just reaching for reasons to discredit him. But to your point, if he did this 3 years ago, would you be ok with it?

Is there a time limit on protests? Maybe you're projecting your shallowness on him, could we all agree on that? Actually Lynchings were still happening in my lifetime, and I'm not that old.

What would it take for you to listen to him. Should he speak on a local radio station. If you want to be heard, you need to be loud. And honestly, I've always found it odd to be 'forced' to show your respect lest you get lambasted on blogs across the country. It's like the pledge, if my kids don't recite the pledge as they are expected to do, my guess is there will be problems. It doesn't seem right. no Sh#t
