  1. what I meant was he wouldn't be very controversial roster spot due to the fact that the kneeling controversy has lost nearly all of its steam over the years. That leaves a more likely reason for his still struggling to get looks by the NFL being that teams feel he was on a significant decline before he left the league and hasn't played football in 6 years.
  2. Nah. No one cares about kneeling or not kneeling anymore. Players in every sports league are allowed to express themselves. The NFL is all in on social justice awareness.
  3. i was refuting your post about Blackmon as incorrect. No one is saying predatory behavior is not “a lot worse” than not being able to function without getting high. But all those guys wrote their own tickets out of the NFL, despite many second chances. So yours is not really a point worth making..
  4. Blackmon was an alcoholic with multiple DWI's. Plus he was too stupid not to keep failing his drug screens. For those reasons, he is out of the league. The Jags never released him, he could have come back after a vetting process.
  5. Sure, pettiest balls…but how thick is he now?
  6. They were never going hire Whaley. zero point zero chance
  7. This was already covered here not long ago...
  8. Uhhh wut? Have you read anything about this at all? It doesn’t seem so, at all. There is no prosecutor. He’s being sued. It’s a civil deposition. He was asked why he sent an apology text after that massage. HE decided to answer by disclosing to the plaintiffs lawyer that she was crying at the end of the massage.
  9. Can't always control their clients. But I really don't think they are sweating this. It's a high profile case that only keeps their rep as a go to firm, win or lose.
  10. He brought up the fact that she was crying at the end of the encounter. He wasn't asked that.
  11. True but sometimes the played games prove them correct.
  12. Assisting him with…what?
  13. Grant, Marv and Gil Brandt should do a podcast. Their combined 272 years of lifer experience could really change the game as we know it.
  14. Perhaps the ketamine plus the alcohol veers away from simply "alcoholic".....
  15. What would be the point of any of this?
  16. Goodell doesn’t make the rules..
  17. Not at all. There was no public broadcast of the deposition. The transcripts were released by the plaintiff's lawyer.
  18. The plaintiff TV/HBO interviews? Pretty typical in high profile civil cases--go right to the public.
  19. True, but not really for the reason you cite (which is repeated over and over and over... This is more likely: https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/raiders/why-tim-brown-blames-bill-callahan-barret-robbins-missing-super-bowl "For a team to have a great week of practice, and then get an entirely new game plan to learn and perfect just days prior to the biggest game of the season was something almost no one could believe. "It was a shocker to everybody," Rod Woodson said. "I know for me, I just couldn't believe it. I dropped my book in the meeting when he said it. I know in my 17 years of playing, even in the preseason you don't do that." While every member of the Silver and Black was stunned, Robbins was the one it impacted the most. Brown believes the new game plan was devastating for Robbins. "The guy who this is going to affect the most is Barret Robbins," Brown said. "Because Barret Robbins is the one who has to make all the calls. He is begging Callahan, 'Don't do this, I don't have time to prepare for this. Please don't do this.' I was with him, and he's begging him, 'You can't do this to me.' 'No, this is what we are going to do. This is what we are going to do.' Well, it's that night that Barret went out and went AWOL -- that night. Now, does one have to do with another? I say yes. You may say no. I say yes." After the sudden game plan change, Brown and the Raiders knew their title dreams were over. "So we go into the Super Bowl knowing that we don't have a chance to win," Brown said." Robbins went AWOL.
  20. neighbor is certainly "wearing the horns"...
