Journalist Jim Trotter sues league for discrimination, referencing incident with Jerry Jones

[Reid1boys]

yawn.... an absolute nothing burger here. People are dumb, people say dumb stuff.... people wake up searching for things to be "Offended by."

 

[rags747]

You know what? I did not even think about that. In my opinion, this would be the first realistic probable infraction (if true) that stood any remote chance of making that happen.

RIDICULOUS!

Maybe just lock the comments. This is something we should be able to look at on here since it involves our glorious owner Jerry Jones. Maybe Jerry’s defense will be it was the hologram that did it and not him.

No can do. Thread lock is the only locking function on the site. Replies keep any thread from slipping off the Fan Zone first page. Any thread will be automatically locked if it slips off the Fan Zone first page and is bumped back per site #12, "You will not bump old threads for any reason."

The thread could be stickied and locked.

Of course, hell will freeze over first before that ever happens.

No, it doesn't. Perhaps I should have made that clear lol.

NFL owners are a very specific class of people who are all basically the same person, morally.

Don't lump them all together.
For every Irsay, Jones, Kraft, Snyder, there is a Hunt, Rooney, Blank, Ford.

Jerry should be forced to sell the team.

Lol it will go to the kids before he sells it. Lol

disgusting, but not shocking.

shrugs, Jerry, being Jerry.

I didn't click the tweet but are these comments recorded or is this a his word against mine thing?

I will absolutely lump them all together. I don't care if some are better than others.

..another fool, that wants Jerry's money. ..

Post #2 applies to implied comments and insinuations also.​

 

[erod]

This seems so over the top, I need more prove that these comments were actually said.

Not at all. Love the team, but hate the ownership.

 

[shabazz]

Not sure if even that will keep this thread alive for long.

How can a something be discussed in a thread if the topic is something we aren't allowed to discuss?

 

[CowboyStar88]

This is a bad look for Jerry, but I swear I’ve seen this quote before from him.

 

[Runwildboys]

Probably. But Jerry was the one dumb enough to speak it over his bourbon.

Maybe. Is there any kind of proof to back up his accusations, or is he just making a claim?

No idea. I think it‘s wait-and-see on its accuracy. We live in that age when news is instant and maybe they beat the networks to the punch. Also… took years before the whole Snyder/Gruden thing blew up. If it blows up and has credibility I think it’s for sure a private discussion with Jerry and the players. Media will probably scream louder than the organization. NFL will give him leeway because he’s not a maverick anymore, He’s not the Clippers or Commanders type owner and has a lot of players who love him too, so he’ll get the benefit of the doubt. In the end I’m sure it will go away but it sucks when the owner is the one you have to worry about for distractions. This is just more of that “one of any 500 coaches“ drunken type comment.

 

[shabazz]

Bet if you looked hard enough you could find a quote like those from every owner in the league.

Let's leave the NBA out of this...

Subtract the OP and my posts from the 38 that preceded your question. Those are your examples of how it can be accomplished. Keep in mind that anyone can disagree with those examples.
