Look up the graduation rates of the football players at each school.

I know several agents and runners that specifically work with 5rd to undrafted players.

How is Trump considered racist by these people?

Politics is really just a team sport at this point, I guess.




If you don't vote for Biden, you ain't black.

I do...that's part of the point. Every player isn't Bennett. But, he's running his mouth off not thinking about what happens to anyone else.



Those players are speaking about it as well.

When their salaries decrease due to lower attendance I wonder if they will be happy.

I'm really not trying to be difficult with you...i'm seriously asking that in the future, in the event that all of us somehow break the NFL...what are these 1600 or so guys going to do that puts millions into their bank account?



I don't think you are that concerned about their livelihood after football. Break the NFL? Are you referring to viewership? The NFL is not going anywhere. The players have other skills and interests.

Team + random terrible fans of team are all apparently the coach's spokespeople.

It's like saying Nick Saban burned trees at Auburn.

ETA: bad analogy, as he probably would.

Can someone show me something that BLM has done other than protest?

Seriously any community centers they have opened, funded any schools, fed any kids?

I'll hang up listen

They will still be making plenty of money. They understand the consequences.

Because Black Lives Matter is a left wing political organization masquerading as a civil rights group.

I imagine that there will be 3-4 ownership changes to come in the not too distant future. Jerry and Kraft could be part of those to sell. The NFL bubble has burst ... tax breaks will come to an end, games will be at 50% capacity so atmosphere will suck, viewership will be way down, and there are better things to do on the weekends than be guilt shamed by millionaires saying that we are the problem.

These pussies sure are getting cocky.

It will be interesting to see how they perform this season.

Being soft, making excuses, pointing the finger, being inauthentic, being divisive, taking the easy path.. Those are usually not characteristics of winners.

He needs to let Jack Brewer know.

As an Aggie, I find his political views almost offensively stupid, and I am pretty tough to offend.
