“We can’t have the inmates run the jail.” I’m not sure I’ve ever heard that figure of speech before this past week. Even if “all it is” is a figure of speech, given the initial “cause” for the protests, that would be one of the worst figures of speech you could’ve possibly used there. The guy deserves all the backlash and more that he gets for being stupid enough to use those words in this situation.I was all on board for Kaepernick’s “protest” being stupid and ineffective, but between the Commander in Tweet being unable to close his mouth and now this guy using those words, the problem is showing through and through just based on the reactions by the rich white males.
So you can’t be treated unfairly if you make millions of dollars?
It's a good thing the players aren't saying stupid things, like playing for million paychecks is the same thing as slavery. Oh waithttp://dailycaller.com/2017/10/19/michael-bennett-thinks-being-a-millionaire-nfl-player-is-similar-to-slavery/
So it's ok for the players to call the owners slave masters? Is that being treated unfairly?
Which has literally nothing to do with what I was talking about. But classic Chicolooper. The rich white man makes an embarrassingly stupid statement so let’s find a case of an African American saying something somewhat stupid and say, “Hey, it’s all good for the rich white man to say what he said, the rich black man said something else.”Sad.But, since you bring it up, it appears Bennett isn’t all that far off. I guess those owners don’t think of the players as slaves, just as inmates. This case kind of just proved his point. So you, the persecuted white man you always point out that you are, “just” brought attention to something that seemed stupid at the time, but...
All but 10 of the Texans took a knee today. Good.
Loved watching them lose!
You’re used to watching teams you love lose!
6-2. Holla

It is sad, for anyone to suggest Bennett isn't that far off to compare Dred Scott and slavery to anything remotely of that a NFL player deals with. Agree, incredibly sad and stupid for him to make that comparison. Anyone that suggests he isn't that far off flunked history or is willfully ignoring it.
Other great posts: The one showing that NFL ratings are not going down as much as TV prime-time ratings overall; and, especially, the one showing that the VAST majority of Americans disapproved of Trump's inane and ridiculous handling of the NFL protests.
Vast ......... customers?
Scoopers: you're not going to be 'that guy' and continue to ruin threads by being argumentative, elitist, antagonistic, or a jerk are you?Chicos: absolutely not! I understand moderation.............also Chicos: here's a bunch of alt-right stuff and i'm convinced i'm not the one who started this.
Bears are gonna have many years of regret for screwing up the QB pick in the draft.And Houston really lucked out.
If Watson was on this Bears team, with this coaching staff, he wouldn't be doing what he's doing in Houston. Watson is/was way further along than Trubisky.The team that should really regret passing on Watson? Jacksonville.
Naw man, skip the first step and the stuff about moderation. It was about not wanting to be on Scoop because the love of his life, a different person than his wife, opened his eyes up to more important things in life.And like 4 months later he was back to being chicos, best buds with hoopaloop.
I am just glad that he has recovered enough to be back to normal. Not that chastened guy who had figured out what really matters in life.
I'm a big Zach Miller fan. Suffered a horrific looking injury today while attempting to complete a 1 handed TD catch. (Terrible review). May have been the worst overturn since Megatron. Feel awful for Miller. He was also a security blanket for Trubisky
The Megatron call was brutal but at least you knew why they called what they did. The call on Miller's play was brutal but no one can even figure out how they could have called that pass incomplete. There was absolutely nothing there to overturn that call.
