I mean, it's a common figure of speech, no? Of course he wasn't speaking literally

Sure but I think the main thing is right now the owners are trying to sell us and the players on the notion that they are working with the players on this issue. This comment basically undermines all of that, racist or not.

he's old....he doesn't know what he's saying

Oh, I certainly agree. But then that is not the guy who should be representing a team in this multi billion dollar business.

poor choice of words and im pretty sure its "inmates running the asylum". What a stupid fuck lol. Old white people are the worst

Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins’ absence from practice today was related to Bob McNair’s comments, per source.

[shel311]

Gonna mix in a little of that with a little of "Texans owner Bob McNair gave more to the Trump campaign than any NFL owner."


Something is brewing!!!

Keenum vs Kizer living up to the hype!!!

The NFL is such a mess.

The NFL is such a mess.

rainy conditions will do that

[shel311]

Keenum and Kizer would have been going up and down the field if not for rain.

Nasty knee injury alert in saints game!!

Watson is gonna be special

[Cnasty]

What an insane game in Seattle, wow.

[shel311]

It's so Matthew Stafford to have a 400+ yard passing and 0 INT game, and still be meh on the night

[Cnasty]

Sitting at 12-0 this week in my NFL pick pool which has a weekly prize of $400.

I have KC and 49 for the total tomorrow night. Figure its in the bag with an amazing week like this? NOPE!

Some other dude is also 12-0...also has KC...he has 40 for the total.

If Denver wins, we actually split it. Go Denver????

last week i made 3 shake up trades in fantasy because i had Wentz/Watson and Gronk/Engram and wanted to make a change

Wentz for James White/ASJ (TE)
Engram/1 for Lamar Miller
5th for Marvin jones

thought, wtf am I doing? Some of these might be bad. But meh. Looks like a good 1st week with their new squad.

Spoiler!

Nasty knee injury alert in saints game!!

ESPN article on it is kinda vague but states he's had a surgery to save his leg, sounds like there's at least some chance he could lose the leg due to some sort of arterial issue.

Matthew Stafford's 423 passing yards without a TD is the most by a TD-less QB since Matthew Stafford in 2012.

It was one of those almost uneventful ones as they were watching the ball to make sure he secured it (he didn't) and then they sort of added in an "oh my" and you see it and just cringe.

Watson is gonna be special

almost as bad as the POS Ohio St/Penn St game that people called a 'classic'

play some freaking defense.

Here comes old, crabby NFL guy!

"Run that draw on 3rd and 10, why are you risking a throw there?!?!?"
