boyst Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Case in point. Case in second point. what is the case in point? i disagree with coach tuesday on many things - politics, football views, and he doesn't eat meat. he still makes good posts about football. taking away all of his credibility because of one disagreement is happening way too much.
Boatdrinks Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 That is a mischaracterization of what he said. There were many good people there who were only in attendance because they objected to the removal of the monument. They were not Nazis or KKKers. They were objecting to the erasure of our heritage. Sorta like being against book burning. This is true. It's the non CNN version. In other words, what actually happened. Does anyone know who threw the first punch?
B-Man Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Trump polarizing players into boycotting anthem is great for him. It's also why deciding how to act based on opposing Trump is dumb. but thats how libs roll

Now you've lost credibility for disagreeing!
Boatdrinks Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 How Boatdrinks spends his Sunday: lol it's getting to that point. Please just play football and STFU.
HappyDays Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Trump polarizing players into boycotting anthem is great for him. It's also why deciding how to act based on opposing Trump is dumb. but thats how libs roll Trump's approval ratings were at an all time high (for him) last week, after a month of normal presidential stuff where he didn't insert himself into a dumb controversy. His ratings were at an all time low (for any president's first year, ever) after Charlottesville. I would bet they fall again after this weekend.

As long as people are screaming about him, he's happy as a pig in ****.

HappyDays Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 The singer's awful rendition of the anthem was way more offensive than anyone kneeling
TakeYouToTasker Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) You are a good football poster. You are comically ignorant/misinformed about just about everything else. I'm guessing you live in Florida? Actually, police shooting data, which is meticulously kept for obvious reasons, indicates that white suspects are shot more frequently than black suspects under the same circumstances. Much of this "issue" stems from the fact that black Americans are under the misimpression that they are treated differently than white people because they don't know what the "white experience" is, and they make the assumption that it's all roses and sunshine with a side serving of money, not realizing that white people have essentially the same problems they do.

Police shooting data is not meticulously kept. It's very hodgepodge, dependent more on local policies than anything else.
TakeYouToTasker Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Police shooting data is not meticulously kept. It's very hodgepodge, dependent more on local policies than anything else. It's not meticulously kept in a single federal database, but it is meticulously kept according with local policies. It has to be because an inquiry follows every shooting incident.
Doc Brown Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) There seems to be a big emphasis on shootings, but throughout my lifetime the main complaint I've heard by black people is the unnecessary hassle by the cops. What's the % of blacks being pulled over compared to other races? What's the % of black people's cars being searched after being pulled over compared to other races? What's the % of black people who get traffic tickets after being pulled over compared to other races? Are police more likely to stop and question a black guy walking down the sidewalk at night or a white guy? Do they use more excessive force when arresting black people? I'd like to see more data on these areas which is more difficult to collect. Edited September 24, 2017 by Doc Brown

Buftex Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) If they protest ( I hope they don't ) I will root for the Broncos. And for injuries. Its just how I feel about it. if they protest. Sorry your guys lost today... Edited September 24, 2017 by Buftex
HappyDays Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Remember when a bunch of people said the Bills should focus on winning first? Well here's what Ron Rivera told his team before their pathetic performance today: "Ron Rivera advised players to stand for the anthem and to "think of the America we believe in."" http://wp.me/p14QSB-ap4x What a dumb move, I think he will be gone at the end of the year. Way to divide your own team coach.

BlueWind Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 I wonder if Trump's NFL rant is just revenge for the United States Football League he used to own?
