  1. No one is just talking police treatment of minorities it's protests in general. There are so many different protests going on that people can not keep them straight anymore. Your right about police treatment of minorities and it got me curious. So I did some research and the topic and found out whites are more likely to be killed by a cop than any other race. https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/national/police-shootings-2017/?noredirect=on
  2. I know some of them do but I would say that group is the minority of the protesters.
  3. If these players cared so much about making a difference why don't they go out and do something about it then. Taking a knee or raising a fist doesn't do anything for a cause they are protesting. Why don't they hit the streets and attempt to make a change first hand. I know some of these guys do but the majority of them would just rather take a knee just to start a controversy. If there is a problem one of these guys want fixed they should go out and help try to fix it because taking a knee won't solve any issue. In fact all it does it create a bigger issue and divide people even further.
  4. No one's forcing them to play. They can walk away from the sport if they want to.
  5. I'm just relaying what he said. He said he no longer has a full time job just does things here and there because his board game allows him the luxury to do that. Whether he is full of it or not I do not know.
  6. The other day he was on and went into detail on why he left. He invented a buffalo sports trivia board game and it was very successful. It was successful enough that he went on to make a bunch of other cities sports trivia board games and now he just kicks back and lives off of his earnings from the board games.
  7. Unless she has a video or photo of him shooting up the league would never even think about testing him. The NFLPA would have a field day if they tested him based on hearsay.
  8. Wgr just had a segment this morning about a successful running game and the impact it has on the play action game. The guy that did the research found there is zero correlation between the two. A successful run game doesn't mean you will have a successful play action game. Also a bad run game doesn't mean you will have a bad play action game.
  9. I thought this myself. Idk the law on child abuse but is one legally obligated to report the abuse of a child?
  10. Definitely thought this thread was about the Nike logo.
  11. What a country!!! Where else would you rather be?
  12. Just because he was one of the most read at TBN doesn't mean alot of people were reading his content. TBN did their research and realized they were losing subscriptions by having his column published. If he was making TBN money they wouldn't have cut his column. He clearly wasn't making them money nor were the others. Hence the overhaul at TBN.
  13. I get what your saying. It's just so hard to speculate anything without knowing the complete details.
  14. I did read it and also read the part where an independent consulting firm polled people and said a number of them would not subscribe if Sullivan and Gleason continued to write for them. The idea Pegula pulled 250k from the paper because of Sullivan is just pure speculation.
  15. If so many people read him then why did they take his column away?
  16. He is definitely not a 2nd wr in the NFL. Maybe on day 1 he is but a year or two down the road this kid is definitely going to be number 1 wr talent. Julio Jones will be 30 after this season. They drafted Ridley now to be the eventual replacement for Jones.
  17. I think the odds of him being traded are very low, however, the Falcons did just draft his replacement and they already have a very solid group of guys at wr. Add that up with his contract situation makes it all the more possible. I still think the odds are low but is not on the same line as Brady or Rodgers being traded.
  18. That's too bad. I was there a couple weeks ago and it was as good as always.
  19. I have to respectfully disagree with you and say Fat Bobs is the best bbq in the city.
  20. Not here to argue the English language just to talk football. Anyhow I showed you a picture of Brady that looks just like the one you posted of Allen. Most everyone agrees Brady has a quick release. John Brenkus broke down Allen's release time and his words were "on par with Brady" for his release time. I get what your saying about turning the football and having a slow release. Problem is that argument doesn't hold water with Allen. He was fitted with all the equipment and tested for his release speed which was .38 seconds in case you were wondering.
  21. He should be excited to learn from Williams. Williams is a true professional who knows the meaning of hard work. He was always the undersized underdog who had to fight for everything he has in the league. Williams doesn't rely just on talent but on grit and determination and is always pushing himself to be the best he can be. Williams is a great player for any young dt to learn from.
  22. Trust me I understand what you're saying. Biggest difference is when you are a rusher as opposed to a receiver you can protect your body much better. As a receiver you don't always have the chance to protect your body. I get his height and weight. He just looks a little on the lanky side.
  23. I know he is that size but he is still a bit on the skinny side. He just doesn't pass the eyeball test as being a thicker guy. That is why i said body type and not size. As far as his rush attempts there is a huge difference between a qb scrambling as opposed to a wr coming acrossed the middle.
  24. Reading comprehension falls short on you. Look up an antonym for quick. You said not quick which would be the opposite of quick. So before you want to slam someone else for reading comprehension maybe you should brush up on your own. When it comes to the release motion Google Brady release images. Brady has many images such as the one you showed of Allen. There are plenty more of these Brady ones out there. quick kwik/ adjective 1. moving fast or doing something in a short time. antonyms: slow
  25. I would agree with you on that, but who knows what they see in practice.
