well.. one would imagine that a couple of jokes in a 256 page report are not sufficient enough undermine that report...

lol.. I know right. Basically a report finds them guilty, they have a history of cheating and yet people are still denying it! Now it would seem people would want to ignore ALL the report because of 1 line where someone who obviously routinely deflates balls for brady said he would inflate one because he is pissed…

Well you can intend to fall and then it be more aggressive than expected and so have all the reactions you stated.

I love it how people are still claiming that the NFL is trying to deliberately ruin their poster boy. When in fact history has shown that they will do everything to sweep things under the rug to maintain the legacy of the great American Poster child.

It sad that you should have to roll dice just to get a lift... :(

Which is my thinking. Uber if anything will most likely make these sorts of atrocities harder to get away with

why is uber horrible btw? Just out of curiosity. Surely its a problem with the mini cab licencing laws in America.

yeah, the league wants nothing more than to frame the face of their brand! Brady is the poster child of the NFL (despite his history of being complicit in cheating), one would assume that the NFL would want nothing more than to show that Brady is an angel!

Well.. I think shady is just bitter.. however he did not say that “chip kelly will not have black players on his team” ... which is what you seem to imply he said with your post. He said that “chip got rid of all the good black players” and he didn’t say “chip ONLY got rid of black players” so it kind of does not…

Sigh... so after all that

My experience, shows that this can be much harder to do than you expect. Particularly if you have the means to help when someone asks. (and I am from a relatively affluent background)... It must be multiples of times more difficult when you are surrounded by people that actually really need help.

Has anyone seen the 30 for 30 “Broke” ??. Basically, my takeaway from that was the athletes talking about how EVERYONE wanted money from them and how even after they had retired and didn’t have any income everyone still expected the athletes to maintain them. And the wives all cashing out and divorcing before money…

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh....

There was an interesting article in the economist that had a take on this. Essentially they posited that the rise in the amount of options for empowerment for inner city youth (sadly still mainly within entertainment) music,film and the explosion of popularity of the NFL and NBA has resulted in a decimated feeder pool…

I would imagine that I am “foreign” to almost 200 sovereign states so ... yes???

Aaand???? is there any ... like... punishment for this?

No, but his shooting was shit!

Should we just accept that if you can make enough people enough money and you are particularly good at something that a lot of people want to see... almost everyone will love you...

I am sure that people have argued this all already... but how is RW above CP3 (or even above Davis for that matter).???

Great post. The reality is if FFM was a good person and all his opponents were all wife beaters, and other forms of criminals, then most people would be singing a different tune.
