Probably not worth its own thread, but caught a chunk of the Westwood One radio broadcast of the SNF game. Jason Taylor was really good on color, and worked nicely with the PBP guy.
I hope the Redskins beat these assholes 105-0 tonight.If you're not going to stand for the Anthem, is it too much to ask to take a knee? Marcus Peters sitting on his ass looking completely disinterested is about as tone deaf to the situation as one can get. And I noticed that a bit yesterday. It's like these guys know folks are pissed about them not standing, and are just trying to ratchet it up even further. Does their "cause" get more attention by sitting there like you're hanging out in a Laz-E-Boy versus kneeling?
FTR, I don't really care one way or the other if guys stand or not. I just think there are much better ways to bring attention to whatever it is they are fighting for.
NOW he can go sit his worthless ass down.Marcus Peters gets beat on the opening possession for a deep touchdown right over the top. Karma.
He did push off a bit, tho.lol at Peters calling for OPI on Pryor.
Impressive drive by WASH.
Protesting cops getting away with murdering black people. It's pretty easy to see why some black people have an issue with that. I have a harder time trying to figure out why so many white people don't.FTR, I don't really care one way or the other if guys stand or not.

Ohio State's defense wouldn't be as easy pickings as NE's.Washington's defense will not be as easy pickings as NE's
Preach, sisterProtesting cops getting away with murdering black people. It's pretty easy to see why some black people have an issue with that. I have a harder time trying to figure out why so many white people don't.
edit: Just kidding. I know exactly why so many white people don't.
Taunton high's defense will not be as easy pickings as NE's.Washington's defense will not be as easy pickings as NE's
Can we please leave the Star Wars references out of the game threads?Taunton high's defense will not be as easy pickings as NE's.
Wait, Marcus Peters said that's what he is protesting? I missed that. I thought it was because he was black?Protesting cops getting away with murdering black people.

It's right in his quote: "I’m supporting Colin in what he’s doing as far as raising awareness with the justice system"Wait, Marcus Peters said that's what he is protesting? I missed that. I thought it was because he was black?
“I was just stating how I’m black, and I love being black, (and) I’m supporting Colin in what he’s doing as far as raising awareness with the justice system,” Peters said last September. “But I didn’t mean anything (bad) by it.”
I'll give him credit though. At least, he stopped riding the stationary bike and doing exercises during the anthem. I guess the protest changes from the preseason to the regular season.
What strikes you as ambiguous about "I’m supporting Colin in what he’s doing as far as raising awareness with the justice system"? Serious question.Wait, Marcus Peters said that's what he is protesting? I missed that. I thought it was because he was black?

For a guy who says he doesn't care whether they stand or kneel, it sure seems like you care. And the quote perfectly articulates why Peters is protesting.Wait, Marcus Peters said that's what he is protesting? I missed that. I thought it was because he was black?

Ah, the the old "see the word 'black' and ignore rest of post" rule!!! Bold play.He didn't read that far
I’m trying to think of an example of situation where kicking a FG on 4th and 1 from the 1 is a good idea.Is there a reason you'd go for it on 4th and 1 from the 29 but not 4th and 1 from the 1? Was Gruden all that concerned with his kicker's ability to hit a 46 yard FG?
YesIs there a reason you'd go for it on 4th and 1 from the 29 but not 4th and 1 from the 1? Was Gruden all that concerned with his kicker's ability to hit a 46 yard FG?
When you need a FG to win or go up two scores with like 2 minutes left in the game.I’m trying to think of an example of situation where kicking a FG on 4th and 1 from the 1 is a good idea.
Still thinking.
I think there are 4 things at play:Is there a reason you'd go for it on 4th and 1 from the 29 but not 4th and 1 from the 1? Was Gruden all that concerned with his kicker's ability to hit a 46 yard FG?
Nothing ambiguous at all, if you believe the entire "justice system" boils down to "cops murdering black people."What strikes you as ambiguous about "I’m supporting Colin in what he’s doing as far as raising awareness with the justice system"? Serious question.
That's the best you could come up with all this time after realizing you shot your own argument in the foot?Nothing ambiguous at all, if you believe the entire "justice system" boils down to "cops murdering black people."
You're right. A white guy would have been far more eloquent and nuanced with his explanation. You know, "well-spoken".Nothing ambiguous at all, if you believe the entire "justice system" boils down to "cops murdering black people."
