RoyBatty is alive

I think he reinvigorated them for sure. They were down what, 24-0, they were doing nada before fitz stepped in.

Wait a second, the ball was thrown, if he never had possession of it how was it a fumble? I can see where it would not be a touchdown but how can it be a fumble?

I want McAddict to resurface, he was the best of all time.

One of the reasons Trump got elected is people are feed up with the PC police. I understand why he apologized but that was a totally innocent joke. So with that joke were any of his victims "traumatized" by what he said, did his joke trivialize Weinsteins actions? Ridiculous.

Tell you what, I really like both EJ and Fitzpatrick, they just arent that good as QBs. Fitz I think is 2x better, he reinvigorated the Bucs when he came in, the man still can run and is not afraid to take a hit, runs down the field to block. I wish TT would at least once try and be aggressive like Fitz throwing the ball.

1) As I already stated, read some lawsuits and the wild things alleged 2) As stated above there is no such thing as a right to have a job in the NFL Believe what you want but this lawsuit, besides the media blowing it wildly out of proportion has zero merit unless the NFL really did collude. Gonna be really tough to prove since the Ravens wanted to sign him until Cap "sweetheart" compared the owner to a slave owner, Now please dont come back and tell me the Ravens violated Cap's girlfriends first amendment rights because they didnt sign him. Actually that lawsuit would have as much merit as does Cap, as in zero.

As much as I hate lawyers and I deal with them far too often that would be an interesting debate.

As I stated prior, there is absolutely no way CK had his first amendment rights infringed, zip zero zilch. Did anyone stop him from kneeling? Answer is a simple no. And has has been beat to death already why he isnt on a team is not relevant, the only relevance is if teams colluded. CK has first amendment rights do and and say what he wants...there is no right to get a job in the NFL..

I read the rest, very dramatic, brings up everything from the percent of AAs in the league to Donald Trump. I noted the same thing you just did, remember these are lawyers wordsmithing to make it sound as horrific as possible, there are mostly likely "directives" one anyone who can or can not be, basically guidelines. This sounds like there was an order from the NFL not let C K practice at all under any conditions. No doubt if and when the truth comes out it will be nothing at all like it is inferred. But IF the NFL is dumb enough to have issued said "directive" signaling Colin, they would by sunk. Go and get sued sometimes, the crap that is alleged in lawsuits is often laughable, idea is often to throw as much crap (including bold faced lies) on the wall and see what sticks.

Well you may have me there, leave it to California, lets just regulate everything right down to what they believe/ Next you will have quotas based on religion, political affiliation. But what Colin did falls under workplace behavior, had he protested on his own time I dont think anyone would care one iota. But he decided to protest on the field, like it or not the owners and the NFL owns that stage, not Colin.

True that is what is grievance articulates but it not relevant, owners can decide they dont want him because of his hairdo, doesn't matter as long as they didnt collude. And prompted by you I started to read his griwvance and got opnly this far, "To date, and specifically from the 2016 season through the present, there has been no NFL rule prohibiting players from kneeling during the national anthem. Mr. Kaepernick has a constitutionally protected First Amendment right to engage in a silent and peaceful protest." The first sentence is wildly misleading, rules were there and never enforced/tested and the lawyers carefully limited it to "kneeling", no in the rules "kneeling" was never listed specifically. Standing up was though. Second sentence, yes Colin has First Amendment rights, they were never infringed. What he doesn't have is a right to a job and act in any manner he wants to while at that job. How is it players get fined for pretending to be a dog urinating? Where is their 1st amendment rights there? If you owned a starbucks and on of your employees decided to lecture every customer about how great Donald Trump is before they too an order, do you think Starbucks has the right to terminate the employee, of course they do.

Here is a fact, no speculation, if the owners didnt bring him on board because of his kneeling etc they are 100% within their right and not in violation of the CBA as long as they did not collude. Colin's lawyers can write anything they want to in their grievance, after all Colin needs to impress everyone with how "brave" he is and how he was wronged.

So why didn't he lets just let the 49ers release him, I am not asking a baited question I just want to know. And do we know for a fact they 49ers would have released him? Of any city ion the US hose fan base would have embraced Kapernick you would think Saan Fran would.

That is not true. Owners have every right to not hire him on their team,. The basis of his grievance is not why he isn't on a team, the basis is if team colluded.

Kaep is an attention whore, this may not be about the money at all. I don't think the NFL pays for this lawsuit to go away, they dont want to set a precedence of players that dont get one a team to shake them down for $., Its a win? Has this done anything to cure any social justice, has it brought anyone together, nope in fact if anything it has made things worse. You really think someone is going to get rid of their bigotry because that idiot knelt during the natl anthem. "Gee look at that, this guy is kneeling, well i sure was wrong, i am going to stop my racist thinking today." All this has done is further divide this country, there is nothing good that came out of this.

I have always believed this, he always starts the season hot and his play slowly dissolves after about 4 games.

The Tuck Rule was an abomination to the game. If I were a raider fan I think i would have never turned on another NFL game. Pats got another yesterday.

I( agree with Row 33, NFL play mediocre, rules are absurd witness the Jets/Pats game. Can anyone explain to me if he didnt have control of the ball then who can he fumble it out of bounds if he didnt have control of it? I can see no TD but how do you go from no TD directly to a fumble. Crap like that makes the NFL unwatchable for me.

Personally I hope the man is ok, make the right decision Stephon, walk away from the game before you do permanent damage and take your $40 million in guaranteed Patriot $ with you.

His "backup" Eric Rowe is also out. Too bad they are not going up against a good QB because this could get interesting.

Also the daryle Lamonica trade, the Raiders were really struggling to attract fans and some speculate that partially explains why we did one of the worst trades of all time. Also the rumor Lamonica was either banging Ralphs or Kemp's wide also may have factored into it.

I loved the old AFL, maybe it was because i was so young but the NFL was boring as heck tome, pound and ground and then you had high flying QBs like Hadl, Namath, Lamonica that loved long bombs. Games with 3 or 4 long bomb TDs along with 4 ints were not uncommon.

Do you agree, i think they are terrible, Leo just keeps rambling on in monotone and Sal interrupts to keep trying to say he already said in the past what Leo is trying to say now.. I admit it, I was. As another poster said it must be mental. The run game is a disaster because defenses have, rightfully so, next to zero respect for our WRs, now that clay is out, zero respect for the TEs as well. We are not going to fix the run game until we fix the pass game imo.

Thanks for posting it. I must say for alleged professionals, Sal and Leo aren't very good. First 15 seconds both are talking all over each other. Some Drunks at sports bars do a better job than those 2.

Zay has been the biggest disappointment of the season for me. In college and ore season had had hands of glue, now he can't catch.
