    I'm not making excuses for Gruden, but the quickness, willingness, and cult-like fervor of finding someone to cancel and cancel culture sickens me more than 10 year old insensitive language.

     

    I need to see more facts and information.

     

    Already many of the paraphrased or summarized emails have been deceptive and back tracked.

     

    Many people who actually knew and worked with John Gruden vehemently deny he is racist and speak highly of his character. That means a lot to me.

     

    I have huge privacy concerns about this case, and also need to know more about how and why these personal emails were leaked. 

     

    Lastly, this took place a decade ago... 

     

    Some of you folks licking your lips about finding fresh meat to cancel...the whole thing is sad.

    I apologize for not reading all the pages of content before this post, so not sure if any of this has been said yet. 
     

    Obviously racism/discrimination cannot be tolerated, but no one thinks Gruden is a racist or homophobe. He has the only out gay player on his team and there’s been ZERO issues with the way he’s welcomed Nassibs courage. 
     

    No one ever accused him of ever discriminating. All they have are decade old emails and the assumption that a negative opinion about an individual or an individual circumstance means that he was REALLY talking about EVERYONE who falls within the same demographic. 
     

    Sports “Journalists” are just self important Karen’s. They get each other whipped into a self serving frenzy, demanding this and outraged at that so they can get clicks and retweets. 
     

    Not sure about all fans, but this stuff is about as important to the game as those super tight reaction shots after every single play.
     

    Just show the field!!

     

    I’m sure I’ll get blasted for this, but if you look at peoples motive, you can figure out why they are behaving the way they are. These Sports Karen’s want attention and clicks. There is no benefit to being objective or dig to find the facts and pertinent nuggets to understand the situation. 
     

    Because *gasp* if you don’t have the “right” opinion, you’ll be treated the same as Gruden was.
     

    Full marks for stupidity on Gruden’s side, but I highly doubt he’s a bigot. 
     

    Don’t feed the Karen’s. 
     

    GO BILLS!!

  2. I don’t think that having the Veteran RT line up next to the raw Rookie RT was an accident. 
     

    He should be able to keep Brown from making rookie mistakes and show him the inside info Vets pick up throughout the game. 
     

     
    As long as he’s not a liability, I’d like to keep Williams at RG until Brown gets some more game reps.

    So what's in the secret menu?

     

    I understand if you give me the answer, you'll have to kill me, but I accept.

     

    So far about 2/3 of the replies I've got think In and Out is great, so guess I'm in the minority, but honestly just didn't think it was anything different than McDonald's other than the slice of tomato was much redder in color.


    I only lived on the West coast for a handful of years, so I’m not an expert, but this site has most of what I heard.

    Texas is just slightly closer to KC than California is to Buffalo, so the answer is a resounding NO

     

    On a side note, don't understand all the love for In-and Out to begin with. Nothing special IMO other than more natural ingredients.


    That’s probably because you don’t know the secret menu 🥷

    I'm not sure what position he'd be outside of DT but he's only 6'1 260 lbs right now which a bit small, maybe LB yet not sure he'd have the speed/instincts. 

    Most wrestlers compete WELL under their natural weight. He could probably add quite a few pounds and not lose any of his explosiveness. 
     

    Also wrestled in HS and the commitment needed to get to and sustain a certain weight class requires strong will and discipline. 
     

    Worth a shot…

    I think 40 time is a gauge, but sometimes doesn’t accurately describe speed.  The difference between a decent and great start can be .1-.2seconds.  In live play, DBs don’t really start until the WR starts and then the race is down to how fast do you really run instead of who gets out of the blocks faster.

     

    Inverse seems to be true for pass rushers where quick start over OL is probably more an advantage than pure speed.

     

    Just my $.02 worth…

    And there’s football speed vs sprinters speed. 
     

    I think it’d be more useful if the combine was in full pads. Then the 40 time would be a more effective measurement. 
     

    Come on kickoff!!!

  7. I served with multiple openly gay/lesbian brothers and sisters in arms in the late 90’s to late 2000s. Before it was “legal”.  Again no one cared. 
     

    I think in situations where you work as a team in high stress environments, all you care about is capability, not their “turn ons and turn offs”. You honestly don’t have time to care about that other stuff. 
     

    I think an NFL locker room is similar to a military unit in that regard. 
     

    Great to see / hear.

    Just now, Beerball said:

    Well, the poor baby feels discriminated against. ***gasp***
     

    He most definitely is demanding that the NFL and NFLPA treat him differently than every other player.

    More insults.

    Wait, so are you saying Allied nations 'dehumanized and eliminated' citizens who disagreed (with the war presumably).  Or are you saying the Nazi's eliminated people of certain groups because those people chose to disagree with the Nazis?

     

     

    Both. Have you seen the propaganda our great nation rolled out showing the Japanese or Germans soldiers as caricatures of themselves. 
     

    Remember the Japanese American concentration camps?
     

    If you take a look at the garbage that was WWII propaganda, you’ll see that it was a very racists period.

     

    The intent was to demonize / dehumanize their opponents. Everyone did it and it was all disgusting. That’s why I said WWII not Nazi.

    ^^ not to wade too deep INto it, but I think it's interesting that there are those that say "Beasley is entitled to his opinion", but then look at this cartoon and essentially say "That cartoonist isn't entitled to his opinion".  I saw Poyer do the same...  🤷‍♂️


    Pretty sure Cole was talking about a personal decision while the other is insulting him for it. 
     

    Cole isn’t demanding anyone else do anything. He is just saying he feels discriminated against. 
     

    Then this guy demeans him and by extension everyone who dares agree with him. 
     

    You can see the difference right?

  11. I really like the direction the Bills are going on the DL. Last year it seemed like we relied too much of the refs calling the game fairly. 
     

    Like how Jerry is literally held on every play. 
     

    You can effect speed rushers with holds that aren’t called. Power rushers, not nearly as much.

     

    So with these two additions, we may be able to more effectively push through uncalled holding penalties particularly during the playoffs when the refs “let them play”.
