Wait, crap, "trigger" is also a gun word. Being PC is so hard these days. Just now, Ridgewaycynic2013 said: I thought it was for using the ‘double negative’. I hear Gettleman’s a grammar nazi.

CDogg20 Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Giants found an excuse to cut him, they wanna get those young guys more playing time. Jenkins is not what he used to be though

freddyjj Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Very ironic. As punishment, he will likely go from outhouse (NYG) to the penthouse (a playoff team) by MON. Thus his "Thank you Very Much, bout time" reaction Edited December 13, 2019 by freddyjj

Pretty sure most people used that word growing up in one form or another. Now you might make half the room sob into their hankies if you used it. And at one time most people used the 'n-word' too. It's just a word right? If your black and say it to another it's acceptable. For such a horrible and heinous word that has such a negative past you would think that it would never be acceptable to use. Both are words that were used to describe certain groups of people, became terms that were used negatively, but there's supposedly such a huge difference between them that makes one a term never to be spoken (by anyone not black) and another just one that you shouldn't say in public......
Prickly Pete Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) The word "dumb" refers to a disability, and is essentially the same type of insult as "the R word", yet there are no repercussions for using it (well, not yet anyway) It's all nonsense. Whatever term is used to replace the "bad" word, eventually comes to hold the same meaning. Edited December 14, 2019 by 32ABBA

The funny thing is them cutting him just is a big favor to him. He’ll get picked up by some playoff team and be playing meaningful football this year and a chance to rehab his image. That’s a lot of rehabbing in a short period of time. Did you read some of his quotes from the ESPN article? I don’t think he should be making fun of anyone’s IQ.
