metzelaars_lives Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) who really gives a sh%t.chris kluwe? please.. It's an interesting read. And I'm sure if in 1963, a special teams coach made a comment about sending the blacks to an island where they would be subsequently nuked, there would be plenty of Dwight in Philly's out there saying who cares just the same.

FireChan Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 It's an interesting read.

The problem with Chris Kluwe is that he could've written a piece about the intolerance in the Vikings org. But he didn't, he made it all about himself and how much of a hero he was for standing up to them. I hope his arm doesn't hurt from patting himself on the back.

Are you saying it would be inconceivable that a football coach could have been racist in 1963? And once again, in 1963 when black people were being hosed down the street in Birmingham, there were plenty of Dwight in Philly's who were indifferent to that situation as well.

But he didn't, he made it all about himself and how much of a hero he was for standing up to them. I hope his arm doesn't hurt from patting himself on the back. Don't disagree with you at all. I'm not diehard Chris Kluewe by any means. But I also found it an interesting read, I believe him and I found that what the ST coach said was something that, 50 years from now, will seem as outrageous as it was to say something like that about black people would be today. Dwight in Philly doesn't care though, this much we know. Edited January 3, 2014 by metzelaars_lives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's be civil for a second and I'll ask you two questions. 1. Did you read the article? 2. Do you find what the ST coach said to be acceptable behavior in 2013? i am quite sure there were racist coaches in 1963, there were racist school teachers, lawyers, salesmen, fireman. it is not inconceivable.. is there a point somewhere????? you are attempting to make ??there is nothing worse on here than bills fans weighing in on social issues.. it is pathetic.. keep it to football.. AGAIN.. WHO CARES WHAT CHRIS KLUWE THINKS.. But Dwight in Philly, don't you understand that by you saying "who cares" in response to a coach saying that he believes that all gays should be sent to an island and then the island nuked, you are weighing in on the social issue yourself??

And Dwight need I really remind you for at least the tenth time that in 2010, almost exactly four years ago, you blamed Obama for NBC covering the women's figure skating gold medal round over the US-Canada round robin game?

Passepartout Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 He really needs to keep his mouth shut. As that is what cost him to lose his job with MN. He probably will be a great activist one day. But he needs to keep his mouth shut if he wants to have another job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably will be a great activist one day. But he needs to keep his mouth shut if he wants to have another job. There are many people who feel that way and I understand those who. But I imagine from Kluwe's perspective that if he never gets another chance to kick, yet that there is someday soon a gay NFL player who feels comfortable enough to be himself, that it will have been worth it for him to speak up. I fully understand those who say "keep your relationships at home," but no one asks that of a straight player. I can't imagine that an out player would be bringing his partner to the locker room any more than straight players are bringing their wives.
