Daboll and Trubisky to the Raidas next season

Doubt it lol. No top tier HC is going to touch the raiders with a ten foot poll. That combo i strongly see going to Miami.

I don’t buy his time at espn he didn’t have some content that be called into question.

this was just in response to a question about which email address he was using (personal vs. a corporate, ESPN account). He certainly was a scumbag while at ESPN.

100% this is being leaked 1. to distract from that investigation and 2. because he personally insulted people in power and makes a perfect patsy.

 

It seems to me that this will put the investigation into a bigger light.

I haven't heard the Washington trainer actually mentioned since the Gruden emails were leaked.

There's no way in hell this is the end of the investigation, especially since it seems like we have a lot more emails to go after.

Why stop here, there has to be "many" other email investigations needed out there. I mean because all these owners, execs, coaches and players have never conducted themselves in a similar manner. Urban Meyer is a good place to start, all the Wash folks, Kareem Hunt, Tyreek Hill......Everyone needs to placed under a microscope I say.

You don’t think that NFL Films has audio of players using homophobic or Misogynistic, or racially insensitive insults thrown around on the playing field over the last decade so you?  They would never…

 

Meanwhile NFL hires Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg and Eminem to perform at the halftime show.  3 men who made a career out of using sexist, misogynistic, homophobic, and transphobic language include saying the words Gruden is getting grilled for thousands of times in public . Oh yeah, Dr. Dre once slapped around a female reporter too.  

[GoBills!]

The first comment was boarderline and was going to be tough to do much but clearly his thoughts and positions are known. Don't know how he can come back from this now in any form to the NFL...

Should the Raiders/League ignore this and do nothing?

I think that people who have said nothing in the last 20 years that could be construed as racist, sexist or anti-gay should be the ones to mete out the punishment.

I’ve been vocal about not liking what I knew about the man. I hate to see anything bad happening to anyone, but sometimes you have to sleep in the bed you made. 

 

Nobody wins here, except maybe the Raiders.

This was Grudens third HC gig. He also worked for different networks. 
 

So what second chance are you referring to? Another HC gig would be his 4th chance, and another network

gig would be at least his third…

Dude probably has enough money to do nothing

Society and people will never be perfect.

 

I don't condone insulting people based on any discriminatory factor.

 

Whether I agree with them or not people should be entitled to have their own opinions and beliefs without the fear of losing their jobs or lives over it.

 

I hope one day we can come to accept and forgive and learn without trying to "make an example" or "cancel" people.

 

At the absolute minimum you can't be calling your boss a "f*ggot."

i wanna see his actual words, i dont see him saying "i denounce the emergence of women as referees"

Probably because the Feds are still actively investigating that.

Ya its not smart. We grew up saying that as kids and never actually thought about it's actual meaning.

 

I'm not excusing it, I'm saying a lot of people are not perfect.

This is quite true. And, if we're all honest and an investigation of the league were conducted top to bottom -who survives if anyone?

This is true, and what about Antonio brown calling a GM racist slurs in front of everyone and did the NFL do anything nope. Or did people come out and Dog him. 🤔
