LeGOATski Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Wow. I was expecting a quote that was kinda vague about a bounty, but still punishable. Nope. That was a direct threat, lol. What an idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an idiot. Stupid yes but he's a commentator. It's not like he can enforce it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Stupid yes but he's a commentator. It's not like he can enforce it. An employer has to right to suspend/fire an employ if they feel that they are negatively impacting the company. NFL Network didn't like it and took actions. Not sure what the big deal is.

boyst Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) What an America we live in now, sigh.agreed He will be suspended indefinitely soon, and fired. Nonetheless, you get just as drastically provocative and incidiary remarks on other topics all the time. Especially when socially acceptable or "hip" and pushed by the media.

reddogblitz Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 agreed He will be suspended indefinitely soon, and fired. In that case we should hire him as an OL Coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyst Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 What does that mean?probably evident if you think about it. Free speech is only free when those who permit it agree. Journalists and commentators can't commentate. Similar to that pitcher whose name I forgot who got so wrongly fired.

sir andrew Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Ugh. This is why people are tuning out of the NFL. Just suspend all the "Analysts" indefinitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Free speech does not mean free from punishment or reprimand from an employer. did not say that. Won't say that. I hate unions. I support right to work states. But, when your job is a commentator and you can only tow the company line toeing the line is not an option. They hired this guy to be a commentator. Someone hired Rush Limbaugh to commentate on football. Someone hired Schilling to write. Why is someone mad and sponsors threatened and the like because someone has an opinion? Sure, what a lot of people say is something we disagree with, but if we didn't allow someone to say something than Cam Newton can't open his mouth about his feelings, Tom Brady knob gobblers can't knob gobble, Chris Klewe can't love him some Jesus, broadcasters can't insert their observations or personal beliefs in to a play or call, journalists can't do their jobs. This guy did 100% absolutely nothing wrong and that is 100% fact. If anyone thinks they did, than they do jot understand free speech. And, of course, someone will chime in his company thought it was wrong... well,his company is a hypocritical joke for one. But, most importantly, his company is the likes of NBC, Viacom, Clear Channel, ABC, Fox, CNN, Disney, etc. and greater political and social agendas must be followed. The idea of safe spaces, the idea of kid gloves for everyone, the idea of participatoon trophies is the message these company support. They're pandering hypocrits to the massively stupid population of this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
