This is ridiculous.   If we were all held to a standard such that anything we said privately, even 10, 20, 30 years ago, could be held against us, every single one of us would lose our jobs

There will be people out there saying this is "cancel culture" but come on, this is pretty ***** behavior and obviously terrible for someone in a leadership position. 

People that talk like that really aren't worth listening to.  They scream cancel culture, but ignore Gruden wanting to 'cancel' female officials, gays in football, protesters...

"The emails, which span from 2010 until 2018, when the coach signed a 10-year deal with Las Vegas after years as a "Monday Night Football" analyst, include Gruden calling Goodell a "f-----" and "clueless anti-football p----," criticizing Goodell for allegedly pressuring then-Rams coach Jeff Fisher to draft "queers," and messages to Allen that featured photos of topless Washington Football Team cheerleaders."

 

Not me: Googling for topless Washington Football Team cheerleaders

His $100 million was fully guaranteed. It will be interesting to see what he gets paid. 

That’s a good point, I wonder as well how they’re gonna work it out. Maybe Davis will pay Gruden for this year and that’s it. Remember Gruden said if he couldn’t right the ship, then he would give all the money back

Like literally anything electronic you post or send/communicate might come out if you are famous enough.

 

 


some of this was when he worked for espn.  I wonder what treasure trove their servers have.

The thing I hate about this is it seems like people just want to tear someone down for the sake of tearing someone down. Big tree fall hard. Gruden has never had anything said about his views on race or sexual orientation affecting his professionalism. 
 

Look at someone’s actions on how you judge someone, not on their words. 
 

I am not a Gruden fan but this just seemed like a career assassination.

Seriously, I got an email from Uber this morning stating 10/11/21 was "National coming Out Day".

It's Canadian Thanksgiving, Indigenous Peoples Day/Columbus day.  I'm sure there are more that aren't considered "National" holidays but those are the ones I know of.

 

Not googling it because I'm lazy.

How dare he bare the repercussions for the things he said and sent out through the internet?
