Coach Tuesday

He’s in the right place now. Florida will eat this stuff up.

Basically just gives them an extra IR spot at linebacker/Teams.

You rang?

Finance is still like this, because it, too, is dominated by Baby Boomers used to a certain way of relating to the world. Until that generation retires and fades into the sunset, this stuff will continue to happen.

I’m waiting for a plastic table manufacturer to rise to the occasion...

Basically describes every investment banking firm. Gross but not particularly novel behavior.

If an NFL owner was paying off referees, at a time when the league is about to be under serious financial pressure, has just made a foray into legalized sports betting, and is under attack by POTUS? Yes, it would be devastating.

I think their business is drying up, they have bigger problems than a lawsuit by PSE.

For reals? That would potentially destroy the NFL. Seriously.

This reminds me of Pink Taco Stadium, which legit almost happened.

Well, it took me a couple of hours, but I finally understand what "banging his side piece" means. That was NOT intuitive for me...

Correct, and/or WaPo got a "cease and desist" letter.

I mean, it’s not sports-related, but it’s equally funny. I’m reluctantly going to vote for him and yet I manage to not be triggered by jokes about the nonsense that escapes his mouth.

I wonder if we could pinpoint the exact moment you morphed from a contributing poster into a troll who gets a rise out of needling people... sometime around 2-3 years ago....

You can relate.

Or they tried to blow the whistle...

You’re not misunderstanding anything. 3/5 of a brain. Maybe.

Brand growth. They’re gonna need it to support a new stadium...

It’s an ethnoreligious group. It’s not a pure belief system. For example, I’m Jewish by birth but don’t believe in organized religion of any kind. But I’m still Jewish and would certainly be considered part of the dangerous cabal by Farrakhan and his loon followers, something I was born into without choice.

THEY ELECTED A... oh forget it.

Did I trigger you? I gave him a “pass” because he’s mental.

It doesn’t matter what side of the issue you’re on - it’s about the approach. I don’t like yours.

Save yourself the “bite” - I’m not engaging with you on this topic or any topic, sports or otherwise, ever. Sorry.

I don’t disagree, but the context matters. The “current climate” you’re referring to seems to be at some sort of societal “tipping point” with respect to racism against Blacks. This has been building for quite some time, it’s structural in nature, it’s been stoked by POTUS, and it represents a severe power imbalance that is systemic. It’s very different from some idiot parroting Crazy Farrakhan. As a Jew, I don’t feel threatened by what DJax said - he basically called me a purple alien. He’s a moron and possibly mentally ill. I’ve always been troubled by the fringe element of anti-semitism that pervades the Black community and I share the frustration some have expressed here that the Left has a real blind spot when it comes to racism and homophobia by minority groups - there is a tendency to either ignore it or chalk it up to structural causes (“it’s not their fault, they’ve been so oppressed”) - that’s hogwash. People are people, and many people are bigots. (Including several posters in this thread hiding behind the “whataboutism”). But let’s be real here: it’s not Black people shooting up synagogues, typically, it’s radicalized white gun nut nationalists and Islamic-inspired terrorists. I worry about them, and I worry about far Left professors who cloak their anti-semitism in “colonial studies” garb. In fact, if you view the political spectrum as a curved circle, anti-semitism is where the Far Right and Far Left meet on the back end - Jim Bob who works at Guns & Ammo in Akron Ohio and Tabitha who owns a lesbian bookstore in Berkeley can’t agree on anything at all, except that Jews are evil. They can both kiss my Ashkenazi behind.

Awesome, can I play the Whatabout Game too? <consults Russian right-wing troll manual> Let’s see? DJ immediately apologized and took back his statement. How come I’m not hearing complaints about the PC Thought Police bullying him into changing his tune? Didn’t you complain about that with Brees and Fromm? I thought it was a free country and we can say whatever we want? How come you complained about it then, but not now? Well, I guess: - You’re a hypocrite - Everything you’ve said on this topic is invalid - You must really not care about free speech - The above is unchangeable and ever-lasting - Your ancestors will laugh at you until the end of time - Your neighbor will soon start tapping your wife This is fun! Yay, culture wars!!
