domestic violence towards men is normally considered humorous

I am pretty sure LooseSeals was being sarcastic haha

I’m with ya, Flacco didn’t exactly telegraph his slide, he basically would’ve slide tackled Alonso if he didn’t go for the hit. The announcers also brought up an example last week where New Orleans defenders let up and Hundley decided not to slide and took it in for a TD. The hit was graphic and unfortunate, but…

The Baltimore O-lineman that pushes Alonso to the ground THEN dives onto him deserved to be ejected way more than Alonso did. I get that he was “protecting his QB” and think the initial shove, while technically being unnecessary roughness, should not have been flagged but the dive after should have been an automatic…

I hate(d) the Ravens almost as much as I hate(d) the Raiders, for three broad reasons.

Yes they agreed and even refused to let him stop despite the obvious trauma...I do wonder how long to let it go on since obviously he had true remorse and continued to do his voluntary speaking against drunk driving and telling the story to schools so they would never have a dui.

Well, Jezebel updated their original story but failed to change the headline; here’s a link from slate with speculation that was the cause of the suspension and updated to include a statement from Twitter confirming it:

She posted someone’s phone number in a tweet. Once she removed it her account was re-enabled. It has nothing to do with “speaking her truth.”

I completely agree. No one should be considered guilty by association unless the actively knew someone was in distress and never did anything. Just because he was business associates with someone doesn’t mean they knew he was completely crossing the line. Maybe they just don’t know what to say, and don’t want to put…

This is Jezebel, where there are some brilliant writers and commenters, but plenty of crazy too. They don’t do ‘sensible’ well.

My immediate thoughts as, apparently, not a fan:

I guess the Pats just don’t support the cops anymore. smh

The Patriots’ color rush unis are white? Hmmm.

That’s exactly what I was saying. Hence the first line of my response. And then the rest of the response

This is clearly a racially-charged policy, but your point doesn’t hold much weight.

He is insane on that thing!

My daughter’s mother and I will continue to co-parent to raise our child in a happy and healthy environment.

I’m not making this a race thing at all, so I’ll ignore you on that front.

How are you measuring Griffin’s football IQ? What I saw, even in his successful rookie campaign, was a guy who was incapable of running a standard NFL offense because he couldn’t read defenses, couldn’t go through a full read progression, and couldn’t see the entire field during dropbacks. None of these…

That’s a neat rhetorical flourish, but it still ignores the fact that Griffin was never able to read even basic NFL defenses. He didn’t “learn” how to run a true NFL offense. This is why he was running a college offense in the read-option. It allowed him to get by almost entirely on the threat he posed from an…
