In the mean time we are waiting to hear from the same players who jumped on Brees for his statement, And where’s ANTIFA on this ?
Totally get it. I noticed you’d mentioned you are Jewish in a few of your previous posts, and while we’ve had our differences in previous threads, I’m sorry you’ve had to endure things like this in the past. Will it get the same coverage as BLM? If I’m being honest, probably not. Is that right? Like I said in my previous post - absolutely not. I’m not excusing the comments or the media’s behavior. It’s unacceptable and DJAX deserves all the criticism that is coming his way.

Truly reprehensible and indefensible. Deserving of similar outrage and criticism that Drew Brees and Jake Fromm received. No disputing that.
However, anyone looking to use this as an example to discredit BLM or legit racial inequalities for POC really need to get a grip. I know it’s hip to choose sides these days, but it’s not an either-or scenario. These comments, as well as those systemic and institutional injustices, are both wrong and unacceptable.

Njoku and Knox would be something. I’d love it for the right price and I’m sure Josh would too.

We’re all humans first and Americans second. We all bleed red.
If it were only this simple, then we wouldn’t be in the position we are in now. For this to be true, people have to actually believe it. Unfortunately, there are still a good number of people that view POC as lesser. Therein lies the problem.

We are heading into Round 2 of Covid 19 and its a lot worse than Round 1.
I understand your point here, but I’m not certain we ever left Round 1. NYC, yes. But I see a lot of folks talking about the “second wave” in the fall, but I’m not certain much of the country has experienced or cleared the “first wave”. If things keep on the current trend, this season will look completely different, if not cancelled altogether (to your point).

Good list! His best play that never was, was the Charles Clay drop in the end zone to win the game against the Dolphins. Little better throw would have helped, but the dude was gassed. Clay still should have caught it.

The NFL has lost me as a fan. To disrespect the flag means you hate this country. If you don’t like it, Americans are free to leave and see if some other country will pay you millions to run around in tights on a 100 yard piece of grass.
I will support and enjoy my country to the fullest with other hobbies than wasting time watching foosball.
and that is MY right .

Awwww, your name calling is sooo cute, sweat heart. ?
I believe you started with the name calling cupcake. Typical deflector response. I’d expect nothing less coming from you based on how enlightened your posting has been. “My whittle tummy hurts when people start to challenge my dated beliefs.”
I’d bet you’re not nearly as tough as you think you are when you’re out from behind that keyboard. Toolbag. -

No. Unlike the social warriors here it doesn't even come up when I am dealing with them.
Or whites.
Or Hispanics.
Or Asians.
Or Indians.
Not once in my 30 year career has anyone asked me how I feel about how their lives matter and we have worked together quite well.
Imagine that you little warrior you! ?
Well aren’t you just so much smarter than the rest of us? Isn’t that cute.
No one on here is trying to tell you how to think. Judging by some of your lovely comments on here, that ship has long since sailed. Ever stop to think your comments or mannerisms around those people don’t foster an environment where they feel comfortable sharing their experiences with you? You saying it doesn’t exist, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist to them. But you’ve never had to think about those things, so why start now right?
But you came in here pounding your chest like a Neanderthal, intentionally trying to antagonize people with how much better you think you are than the rest of us. You sure showed us.

Yes. For the past 30 years and I do quite well with the black community.
Personal responsibility, no matter your race, is an AMAZING thing.
I’d venture to guess your work with the black community doesn’t involve telling them you are against Black Lives Matter. No, that little diddy is just for us special folk here.

Put it in front of as many people as you can. It's... ah I dont even know where to begin.
I'll just say that. It's funny - and again it's by design - how Americans are all so certain we are much too clever to ever be persuaded by government propaganda. Us? Come on...!
Agreed dude. I try to share that link with anyone I can. It’s wild stuff. I think regardless of which side of the fence you’re on with this issue, no one considers themselves a sucker. But that’s exactly what we’ve all been. Duped. It’s no wonder this issue touches a nerve with so many. Years and years (and years) of conditioning. That’s why it’s SO important we continue to educate ourselves on things like this.

For a fun / horrifying read of history, look into COINTLEPRO
This all day. I posted about this last week. Here is the cliff notes version for anyone not wanting to do the leg work:

It’s a long twitter thread, but a fascinating read.

It’s almost like football is the ultimate team game!
I agree. Or even coaching for that matter. Say what you will about Harbaugh at Michigan, but the guy was a damn good NFL coach. Worst season record was his last at 8-8. Coaching matters folks. Kaepernick was still developing when Harbaugh left. Who knows what his trajectory would’ve been if Harbs stuck around. Jim Tomsula and Chip Kelly were awful.

Damn shame we FINALLY have a roster to compete and make a real run at this thing, and this damn coronavirus is threatening the season (yes, I know football doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things). As Bills fans, we truly can’t have nice things.

Do you practice the same? Do you listen to those who might actually agree with race issues but also have a strong affirmation for for the military and their beliefs?This is absolutely a fair question to ask. Whether it’s genuine or not, I appreciate you asking it. The short answer is, no, I have not done enough. No one has. And that has to change. Im
man enough to admit it and I’m committed to addressing my failures.
With respect to how you demonstrate your patriotism, I’ve got no problem with you (or anyone else) feeling compelled to honor the great men and women of our military by standing for the flag/anthem. But the flag represents an ideal. One that quite frankly, we’ve never fully achieved. Certainly, not for people of color. Anyone who is still having the kneel or stand for the flag conversation, or is upset by anyone choosing to do the opposite of what they choose to do, is completely missing the point. And I’m sorry, but that completely baffles me because people have to try really hard not to get it. Harder than they would have to try than if they just accepted the reality of the situation.

If you you’re self would stop yapping for 2 minutes and actually listen , then you would know that NOBODY is disputing that there is legitimate race problem in this country,
BUT please continue on yapping and deflecting from a legitimate discussion that people are having
My last posts were damn near 24 hours apart. That long enough for you? I’ve read many of these posts in this thread, and the only yapping I see is coming from you and people like you. Right on brand.

question, for those who do not support; ever serve your country ?
Great question, but be careful what you ask for with that question on here. You’ll feel the full wrath of the resident Drew Brees’es. The “well my grandaddy served and I’m steaming mad about this” crowd. It’s sad after all this people would rather spend all this time and energy fighting and deflecting vs. stopping to actually listen and ask themselves whether we have a legitimate race problem in this country.

You're pretty sure? Moreover, the fact my race, religion, creed, means more than my views says more about you than me.
Also, this is far from arguing, this is someone trying to project, and failing. I don't need some complete stranger guessing my ethnicity, acting upon that assumption, than trying to insult me.
You are part of the problem.
I’m part of the problem? ? Ok, guy. There’s that white fragility kicking in. Like I said, history has eyes for people like you. Enjoy that life!

You keep assuming I'm white, does that give you control over the conversation?
No, I’m pretty sure I know. But, if I’m wrong and you’re not white (and that’s possible), then you’ve got bigger problems than arguing with me on a message board.

So, you get to change definitions of words to suit your self.
You dont have to wait long to see Obama was the ruler of the free world. Why was that supposed to be a mic drop? Did you blatantly pass over a black president for a reason?
Gee, thanks for throwing a bone. That’s mighty white of ya! It’s sad you think one black president makes up for 400 years of oppression. One who continues to be undermined by his successor and droves of white people to this day. Rolling back any progress he was able to make. In fact, it’s another example of what happens whenever black folks taste a little success in this country. And you said I had no idea if I was talking to someone white, Black, Hispanic, or Asian. ??
Oh, and by the way, it’s not just me who feels the Merriam Webster definition needs a little updating. I know it’s not Fox News like you’re used to but here you go if you care to read it:
(now that’s a mic drop ?)

Who said I was butt hurt? Racism is racism no matter how you slice it.
The true definition of racism - not the one white people cling to in Merriam Webster - is when prejudice meets power. People of color can absolutely be prejudiced, but name one time in US history they’ve ever held a position of power over the white majority. I’ll wait...

Well, there is the racism we are looking for. You dont know if im Hispanic, black, Asian, white... yet let's see how you react to me pointing out exactly how racist stupid comments like yours are.
What’s any of that got to do with acknowledging systemic racism and injustice for people of color in this country? History has its eyes on you and every other person who is butt hurt over this movement.
