I bet you Schmitty is actually African-American, but he just doesn't know it, ala Dave Chappelle style.

Not sure, but comparing son of a bitch and nigger is a stupid comparison.

You know what the link between Hernandez and Cooper is? They both lived with Tebow in college. You can't make this stuff up.

Tebow is actually an evil mastermind criminal genius who just so happens to be violently racist as well, all this other stuff is just a front.

That's funny as hell.

From Cooper's own teammate, Cary Williams (yeah, he's black, although the name "Cary" would be better if he were "Tyrone"):

“[A]t the end of the day, we look at . . . rap artists [and] some people in the locker room, that word gets tossed around. And what I think about my grandmother and my great-grandmother having to endure being called that name . . . . We as a black community sometimes pounce on somebody who uses it in a derogatory way when there are times in the black community when we use it freely. I think there’s no place for that word in anybody’s language, in anybody’s mouth or off anybody’s tongue, whether you’re black, white, green, purple, blue. It’s still the same meaning, it’s still a harsh word.”

I do think it is funny Cooper is getting the Mel Gibson treatment like he went on some sort of extended drunken rant instead of using a word that is liberally thrown around in the 20-something subculture.

 

[Carp]

I agree...this is overblown...it not help that this is a slow news time for all sports.

Tim Tebow has nothing to say about Riley Cooper

Posted by Darin Gantt on August 2, 2013, 6:40 PM EDT


Tim Tebow’s working out at Gillette Stadium, but he’s apparently living under a rock.

The Patriots quarterback decided to pass when asked for comment on his old college roommate Riley Cooper, who — perhaps you’ve heard — has gotten himself into some hot water this week.

“I haven’t seen everything that’s happened,” Tebow said, via Emily Kaplan of the Boston Globe. “I’ve been pretty busy. I’m going to wait to comment until I hear what happened.”

Um, Tim, here’s the short version.

Cooper got drunk and said something hateful, which offended many of his teammates, and there’s no possible way any person employed in the NFL can be so focused that they haven’t heard about it.

For all his leadership and intangibles, Tebow’s developed a habit of not having much to say when one of his old pals gets in trouble, just as he didn’t comment on Aaron Hernandez.

Or maybe he’s just waiting to deny the Gators three times before the rooster crows and he weeps bitterly.

I don't see any reason why he needs to respond.

People forget that Jesus had a pretty rough group of homies. Pimps, hoes, thieves and murderers. Shoot, Paul at one time would have been happy to kill Jesus while he was persecuting Christians left and right. That dude ended up writing most of the new testament.

Anyway, the bible lesson for today is over. Please put some money in the basket on your way out.

Jesus had already accended before Saul started on his tirade so I am only leaving a thank you for the lesson.

I think it's more important that people understand that Jesus most likely wasn't the divine son of god.

Thanks for sharing. Not sure anyone would have known your position on this had you not stated it again.

Doing your best Smitty impersonation! See, you only hate me because you are the same.

Well this didn't go in the direction that I thought it was going to.

Had I already said this?

Weird.

Yes, everyone and their brother knows you are not religious.
