I'm taking this as good news. I didn't like how the Raiders dismissed him. Someone dug through years worth of emails that they weren't supposed to read. They were meant to go to a particular person. If you read through years of emails, you would probably find something objectionable with almost anyone...yes sir. Hot off the press. Grudy involved with Saints org. Likely working back stage over there.

I think it was very careless and dumb of him to put stuff on email. But then if someone was to take any person's PC and look at everything there, how many people would be pure as driven snow?I'm taking this as good news. I didn't like how the Raiders dismissed him.

I remember when we only had landline phones and no email. I remember that phone calls were supposed to be private. It was strictly forbidden to listen in on someone's phone call. It doesn't mean it never happened, of course, but listening in on someone's private call was considered a big invasion of privacy. I wanted emails to be treated like that too. If you wrote an email to someone, you considered it for that person's eyes only. Now if we're going to have the mind police dig through everyone's emails for the purpose of mud slinging and getting someone fired or wrecking their business, that's a problem. I want everyone to butt out of everyone else's private communications. Some bozo online was saying to me, "Did you hear the terrible thing that Gruden said?" And I'm like, "If it was said in a private email, I have no right to know what he said." It was like when some creepo hid a camera in Erin Andrews' hotel room to make an unauthorized naked video of her." Disgusting. I refused to look at that footage. I felt like, because Andrews didn't agree to that video being made, I had no right to watch it. It wasn't the same as when an actress agrees to a nude scene in a movie, and has specific rules in her contract about it.
The reading of Gruden's emails by someone other than the recipient was an invasion of Gruden's privacy. So was the hidden video of Erin Andrews. I wish everyone would get the bleep out of everyone else's business.
Not many. You're right that it was careless, but I still don't like today's trend of sifting through years, or even decades, of someone's email trying to find dirt. I remember back in the late 90s, we never dreamed that our stupid emails might be important decades later, or at least important to some hostile, trashy person looking to dig up dirt.I think it was very careless and dumb of him to put stuff on email. But then if someone was to take any person's PC and look at everything there, how many people would be pure as driven snow?
Wasn't his contract guaranteed from the start? No need for a smear job, could have just fired him.One of the league's billionaire owners wanted out of a massive long term contract. The league had it's own reasons to not like Gruden.
So smear job. Truth, actual wrong-doing, fairness got nothing to do with it.
I don't believe the owner wanted to fire him. So they had to keep the pressure up by releasing more info.Wasn't his contract guaranteed from the start? No need for a smear job, could have just fired him.
He needed to be fired for being such a idiot in emails. I don't know how any team would even align themselves with him.One of the league's billionaire owners wanted out of a massive long term contract. The league had it's own reasons to not like Gruden.

We know one side of the story. As usual the side we know is that of the richer and more powerful. Maybe Gruden is an idiot and worse. Maybe.He needed to be fired for being such a idiot in emails. I don't know how any team would even align themselves with him.
You think the emails were fake?We know one side of the story. As usual the side we know is that of the richer and more powerful. Maybe Gruden is an idiot and worse. Maybe.
No. But I bet there's a lot way worse, more malicious e-mails circulating around NFL. And we never got to see the two-way communication, did we? What ugly dialog was getting bounced around by all the parties.You think the emails were fake?
Oh of course. Im sure there’s worse…doesn’t negate what he did though.No. But I bet there's a lot way worse, more malicious e-mails circulating around NFL. And we never got to see the two-way communication, did we? What ugly dialog was getting bounced around by all the parties.
Ultimately they paid Gruden to be the best coach of the league. When he wasn't they found a way to dump him and get out of the contract.
Why is he a scumbag?Keep the scumbag off the computer
