I don't know if it has been posted or not, but they have removed the pass interference replay rule.

Good, it was a waste of time.

As an aside, In retrospect, 2019 season was probably the most non controversial catch/no-catch one in a decade.

I'm sad for the demise of the PI replay rule. It was poorly planned and executed but I really want to see penalties be able to be challenged

Wish the sky judge would have stuck. Officiating is terrible in the NFL.

Drew Brees just blew up the Saints, like, a day after Sean Payton seemed to inspire them all.

Drew “Please No Knees” Brees

Drew “Please No Knees” Brees

Just dumb dumb dumb timing on his part and a total lack of sensitivity for someone who's been a leader for so long

Joe Horn: People like LeBron James criticizing Drew Brees don’t know him

Finally. Somebody that has enough balls to not roll over to the pressure, and speak up. Props, Joe Horn.

Yeah, I don't disagree with Brees at all. But it's like white people are in a position where you can't really share your honest opinions right now unless your opinion aligns with everything the black lives matter movement is doing. If it doesn't you're just sort of expected to hold your tongue or be ripped apart.

That’s it. Yes the clip was taken from an interview where they asked him point blank about kneeling,but he has to know the climate.

“Do we have problems in the country? Yeah.” Immediately followed by slamming Kaepernick— talk about sweeping centuries of suffering under a rug in just a few quick words.

Just an entitled, insensitive perspective. I totally get Richard Sherman when he says the NFL has a backwards plantation mentality compared with other sports leagues.

I've seen a few sports guys saying Brees needs to kneel during the anthem "to show he's learned". I really fucking hope he has more grit than to bow to the outrage mob that just wants to make him submit and do something he's morally against.

Kaep is still a borderline starting qb in a gimmick offense at best and a fucking commie, it's weird how no one brings up the cop pig socks he wore or him actually wearing a Che Guevara shirt in fucking Miami of all places. Fuck him.

Jesus Christ. If you could just ramp up the drama a touch more, there might be a spot on The View for ya.

That's as dumb an analogy - and insensitive to actual racism and oppression - as it gets.

Shitting on and trivializing the plight of actual oppressed people from a millionaires perch is incredibly insensitive and acutely disgusting.

I agree. It's offensive to compare the two. Luckily those slaves aren't still alive to be offended by the slight.

He was asked about that immediately after he raised that point. Basically "Why participate then?"

His answer was he has no other choice of league in which to play football at a high level and be compensated in a way that helps himself and his family build wealth for the future.
