It’s similar to shaming food stamp recipients for accepting a “handout” while the corporate suits walk away with the vast majority of the welfare.

Too bad we don’t own most of the water we’re getting flooded with because Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and California own the fucking water rights. Fuck that dumb shit. Also, superfuck Las Vegas. Talk about a place that needs drought shaming. The Bellagio needs to be fucking razed.

Since when do people with lots of money only spend it on things they need? Hell, when I make more than expected I buy myself something nice, not paint for my peeling garage floor.

You don’t weaken your argument just by acknowledging potential negative consequences of a proposed course of action, if you explain why it is superior despite them. He is arguing that the NFL’s obsession with optics as opposed to optics on this issues is bad. He’s acknowledging that a hands-off policy would lead to…

Don’t link to your own posts. Christ.

You were saying this post was a mess and asking what the stance on it all was, I saw it as just a piece pointing out that it is a mess, and not really having a stance on what the NFL should do. That is why I was asking you what stance you would have since you were saying this post was a mess for not taking one.

I’m sure _more_ of it existed in the Before Times, because the “good old days” were pretty much like today’s White Alabama turned up to 11. What’s the worse is that it was socially acceptable then—-it wasn’t until 1975 (thanks, Mississippi) that all 50 states expanded their definition of rape to include wives.…

I’m sure plenty of athletes men in the 50s and 60s beat women.

You just wrote a movie trailer.

you are a horrible shitty person. Bringing up what amounts to less than 5% of 1% of cases is a horrible thing to do. You are likely a woman beater and abuser

i get that part. i mean the team executives lying to our face thing.

Every time I hear about a college kid in this situation I think of all the red flags Lawrence Phillips put up.

I’m sure plenty of athletes in the 50s and 60s beat women. It’s just that in the age of ubiquitous internet and social media, it’s a lot harder for an incident like that to be swept under the rug. The sports press of the time did a lot of shielding athletes from scrutiny over their various personal problems.

People like Ray Rice and Greg Hardy didn’t play last year for one reason and one reason only - the public outrage over what they did made it bad business for the team/league for them to play.

You want the Seahawks to stop drafting domestic abusers? The Seahawks’ fans have to give a shit, cause a PR firestorm, stop…

One of the real obstacles to the NFL ever making a positive stand here or achieving anything of real merit is that they contribute to the problem by treating their players like disposable bags of meat. Ask any former player, the stress caused by the constant fight for survival has a majorly negative impact on their…

In an effort to create a false impression of due diligence and being mindful of not employing an abuser, Schneider chose to slur a domestic abuse victim by calling her a liar and saying his draftee never hit a woman.
It is so fucking shameful.

as a niner fan, ive been dealing with this for a couple years now. its fucking nauseating. Very Rich Men have never been saints. i get that. but whats been going on the last few years feels like a whole different thing. or maybe im just now noticing it.
