While that word should never be said I’m not sure if it’s the same as a sober comment made by Desean that involves quoting Hitler and a Jewish conspiracy especially given that this has historically been used to incite riots, wars, and pogroms against Jews.

I really hope nobody follows the NFL anymore and they just fall on their face.

I'll start by saying Jackson shared anti-Semitic propaganda that should be condemned on every level. I tend to think Jackson seemed dumb enough to not understand how evil the stuff he shared was, but that's no excuse.

That said, I don't think a NFL team (or any public organization) would ever use someone being drunk to justify lesser punishment for a racist comment. It would immediately be turned into "the Eagles think it's ok to be racist if you're drinking."

Cooper yelling the n-word at a black security guard is something I wouldn't defend for a second. I think what Jackson did is also indefensible. Both of them issued fairly immediate apologies, and I tend to think the punishment should be roughly similar.

Knowing Cooper didn't get released or suspended, just an undisclosed fine, I don't think the Eagles should go further and suspend or release Jackson. As to whether they should fine him more, hard to know without knowing the undisclosed amount they fined Cooper.

She said Hitler was good in the beginning but went overboard.


Didn’t she also own a Nazi arm band, call a player “a million dollar n-word” Was accused of not hiring black employees by multiple people, And said only fruits wore earrings?

Honestly I’m mostly just looking for consistency. I don’t Think Jackson should be cut. He should get some heat, and he seems to be getting it how.

That's only the stuff she said in interviews or publicly admitted to.

The crazy part with Schott is she praised Hitler in the same interview she gave to explain why she called players "million dollar n-words." She literally tried to excuse the million dollar statement by saying she was only joking, then turned around and said Hitler wasn't all that bad.

The unconfirmed stuff she's supposed to have said in private is significantly worse.

On Jackson, really not a ton of people have lost their jobs over these recent issues. There have been a lot more forced apologies and some pay cuts. Jackson apologized, which he damn sure should have, and we'll see if he gets fined.

Yeah I did A whole Wikipedia search, so I’m no expert but the things she said in interviews.

When you’re accused of owning a Nazi armband just deny it and get rid of it.

"Black people don't have a history of attacking anyone."

Besides each other every weekend in Chicago and other cities like that.

Outside the racism and anti-semitism, Schott's dog stories are probably the craziest part.

She brought her dog everywhere and it wasn't potty trained. So, her dog would take dumps on the floor, on the field during batting practice, and she'd make random employees pick up the dog poop.

She got in trouble with MLB after the dog attacked and bit multiple players during warmups.
