Based on the news that has come out in the last couple days, danny’s had more to worry about than just the new name. Of course the league covered his backside though. Big surprise 🙄

For the burglary charge you mentioned are you talking about the laptop theft or something else? I believe in the laptop thing he pled down and got probation.

I’m sorry, do you have some on-field NFL news to share in the middle of June that this thread is crowding out? Swear to god you’re insufferable. Anything you don’t want to hear about (or even think about, apparently) is just “off limits.” Your ostrich syndrome needs to end, or you need to go.

wow how long it take you to come up with that one. So original

League statement, for anyone who missed it - didn’t see it posted upthread.

largely a semantic distinction you’re making here but I think I get what you’re saying. The thread is about this news though and it’s significance to the league, not about a broader statement on whether you or anyone else “don’t care if a person is gay, straight or somewhere in between.” So saying “who cares” or “WGAF” seems more of a dismissal of the story or a non-opinion. It certainly isn’t valuable or constructive in any way.

Sure is a lotta people in this thread who “couldn’t give a ____” about this news yet decided to take the time to let everyone know how little they care instead of just moving along with their day. 🤔🤔🤔

yeah because random shootings never ever happen in this country…

not splitting hairs really - he never played in a regular season game so he wasn’t considered “active” by league standards. Still he definitely deserves credit. Sam was the 1st openly gay active player in the CFL.

Pretty simple: because precedents usually are news.

Then blame Beasley. And not everyone trying to educate you is a blowhard.

Not necessarily. If they really are thinking about leveling the ECC lot to build it there, they can get a season in. It will be 1-2 years though i agree. People are gonna be pissed.

“there are a lot of problems today” isn’t even close to an excuse for setting up and propping up a position that will hurt solving an extremely urgent health issue. But you’re right we should always try to the best version of ourselves - that includes actually learning about things we previously only thought we knew about.

honestly if it takes a year playing home games in a remote location in order to finally get this new thing built and don’t have to worry about ever hearing about “needing” a new stadium again, I am down. Sign me up

or at least “living free” thanks. But honestly, just checking a box to opt out is a part of the problem.

i get you, but again, the primary factor in vaccine effectiveness is enough people getting it. Pushing against people pushing for more people getting vaccinated is ridiculous in my book. It’s what we have to do in order for all money, all those shots to mean something. I’m low risk but I got the shot asap. It wasn’t for me it was for the people around me.

Good point. Tommy lost almost a year of development and ended up with a potentially serious complication because, ya know, god’s will. because saying “X number or states think this” is misleading. I’d rather see the number of people that ascribe to A (or B.) states have populations ranging from what 40+ million vs 700K? That’s all i’m saying

Which is what I asked him as well. And citing X States vs. Y States means less than nothing to me. Show actual population polls then maybe I’d consider it.

And that’s all good. Beasley is not trying affect beliefs, he’s trying to change policy to suit both his comforts and beliefs. He’s being selfish, bottom line.

I need to see what “beasley-style livin” looks like now lol. Probably doesn’t involve too many trips to doctors. 😂 Framing that too.

Heh is New York outside “the States” now? Maybe pick a different team then.

Yes. I want to the the requirements for earning those exemptions. Cuz you don’t get them automatically

Link please.

it certainly is - a vaccine in the microcosm means nothing. It only accomplishes the goal it was created for if enough people get it.

It’s extra funny because even among his teammates, Risto was the one singled out by media and others as always looking completely ripped and ready to go. In preseason.
