The most chickenshitted thing you could do is get with your fellow soy boys and harass someone's family at their home because you disliked something they said.
Especially when that "something they said" is that women have been lied to, that their most cherished and valuable role is as a mother and not as a lonely cat lady climbing the career ladder for some soulless corporation.

This is just so dumb.

If they want to find the best way to tank their popularity, congrats they found it.
It’s a formula… just enough NFL for filthy rich companies to pay a truckload for but not enough to diminish the main audience.

If it diminishes the audience, they back off.

This is the real “just the tip” experience with Goodell having their way with FAANG.

It’s the #1 bankable reality television and this strategy lets them saturate the airwaves and clean up the most bank for the live product.

Then your copyrighted official highlights (which is all a bunch of Gen Z watches anyways) gets you double dippage with a huge cut of advertising clicks on Youtube, etc.

And this is partly why I hate the NFL now.
I get it, but they have to say something or it looks like an NFL player is using their platform (i.e. the only reason Butker is being interviewed is because he’s an NFL player) to officially say the bullshit Butker did.

I mean this is the last thing the NFL wants to waste time on, but they do it because they have to cover themselves vs what 1500 generally stupid current players and tons of ex players and coaches might say while they represent (or rather misrepresent) the NFL

It wasn't an interview, it was a graduation speech at what I believe is a Christian College?

I don't see how anyone could possibly believe that one kicker making a speech at a small college was speaking for the entire league.

And the point is, players give opinions on things all the time and the league doesn't feel the need to denounce them.

No rational person of course, but we’re talking about the general public.

It almost doesn’t matter how he said it or even in what context. It only matters that it got onto social media.

I don't mean it doesn't exist, just that it's very orchestrated by people with an agenda. It's not a groundswell of popular support for the issue.
Well yeah and when you portray things as some big movement everyone wants to jump on the bandwagon. Most of those people don't even know what the comments were. They think they were racist and bigoted but if you ask them what he said, they would have no fucking idea. Sometimes I hate our society and the way no one is capable of seeing words and judging for themselves. Everyone just sees a post or an article and they don't actually read what was said. They just read the headlines and conclusion by someone else and judge based off them. I'm sure it's always been this way but I try to be better than that.

On that note, how worthless and stupid is "Change.org" anyway? Sign this online petition and we'll change the world! :doh

Smart career moves #1billiongazillion: I am a fringe NFL player.

Let me drive around with weed in the car.

One day, it will be like open container for alcohol, but that still does not help dummies.
