Not sure what will happen first. The thread gets locked. Or I run out of posting rule reminders.
 
He didn’t but he toed a fine line. But I will also say I hate their stupid city, stupid name, and stupid team but Eagles owner is actually a classy respectable guy. I respect him. He allows his players to speak.
But dudes say the NFL will kick you out. That's not true. Jenkins went to the saints too if I recall. If Aaron Donald spoke up would he get kicked out? Of course not. So again, why do average Joe's seem to care more than star players who would have no repercussion? All I'm asking.

The NFL actively discouraged the behavior. Pointing to pro bowl players being allowed to stay when they have leverage isn't really ccompelling.

You didn't ask me a question. If you want to pretend that someone not answering your question proves something then go ahead. I will happily to continue to post as I have and you can just not respond.
 
Jerry's comment is short-sighted and elitist, but it's not nearly as bad as the Bills owner's comment.....in my opinion. It seems like including Jerry Jones' name would be helpful in any lawsuit against NFL owners. That being said, some sensitivity training might be in order.
this...not a good look, but whatever

Bills owner :omg:
 
So he sat on these quotes for 3 years until he got fired and is now using them to sue? Going to be tough to prove anything without evidence, otherwise it just sounds like a disgruntled former employee.

You responded to a post where I asked a question. Will you answer it or not? If not then why quote it?

It's all about the money with all these cats but people want to play dumb.
 
Jerry’s was inappropriate but man not nearly as bad as the Bills owner comment. Holy crap
For sure. If these comments are substantiated, I don't foresee the Bills owner making it through as well as Jerry.
 
The issue with Jerry’s comment is that it’s not necessarily the R word at its core. But it’s not a way to talk about your employees or run a business.

Any other business if the employees bring up concerns about discrimination that may have merit. The appropriate response is not “they should just buy the company then”

You want to frame the argument in a particular way with the question and I reject the premise. You want it to seem because at no point has a NFL team cut a player and given kneeling as cause for the cut is meaningful. I was just saying that there were other indications.
