I'm sure him losing yesterday had nothing to do with it.

Just announced during MNF.

So apparently he criticized Goodell, Biden, and others 9-10 years ago in emails.

Chucky got paid way too much and for too long when they hired him.

These e-mails just ended up being an awful convenient way to toss him.

Is this a way for the Raiders to fire him and save money by claiming breach of a morality clause? Who leaked these emails by the way?

Does he get the remainder of his 10y/$100 mill contract?

My guess is someone within ESPN since Chucky used to be a long term employee there.

They were finally winning some. Didn’t he just say someone had big lips?

Goodell or someone at his direction.

They were found during an investigation of Washington by the NFL.

One of them absolutely blasted Goodell. The petty little tyrant decided to get his payback.

quote:

Per the report, Gruden in the emails called Commissioner Roger Goodell a “f—-t” and a “clueless antifootball pussy.” Gruden also said that Goodell should not have pressured former Rams coach Jeff Fisher to draft “queers,” in reference to Michael Sam, a seventh-round pick of the team in 2014


Yep, Goodell.

Committed the mortal sin of referring to Michael Sam as a queer

Such bullshite. I guarantee that all these assholes on TV, all the talking heads that have been pumping this story along to try and cancel Gruden have said similar things in their past to whatever Gruden said. The difference is no one has found a way to dig into their past to try and ruin them with this PC bullshite.

I cannot wait till the day where the pendulum swings back the other way on all this cancel culture crap. I hope I live long enough to see it. The thought police can rot in hell.

I hope Gruden has saved all his emails and goes scorched earth.

From the wild, tough as nails Raiders of the 70s to these woke pussies today.

So glad I quit watching the NFL years ago. What a shitstorm.

They've been trying to cancel Gruden since he went golfing with Trump, Jaws and Tirico back in 2018.

But why now? Sounds like the NFL has known about them for a while.

Woke ESPN will probably fire him in retrospect even though he obviously doesn’t work there anymore.
