    Woah! Why are you trying to cancel AB? Nothing has ever been proven that he actually raped or beat anyone. Quit imposing your wokeness on innocent people.

    Dude, he was a 6th round draft pick. You are acting as if every 6th round pick is a great college player, they arent. I think it is a lot easier to justify Sam in the 6th than say Tebow in the first, Jamarcus Russell #1 overall, etc etc. How many other 6th round picks have you scrutinized to this degree?

    He was a 7th round pick. He was borderline undraftable in the eyes on many NFL teams. Hence the “pressure to draft him” email from Gruden. Idk how else to break it down for ya.

    Cheers on talking to riverman, glad you specified.

    You’re right, both LV and TB chose to do something about Gruden. I guess if he was in buffalo, he’d still have a job. I’m pretty sure the NFL as a whole would have done something about his LV job no matter what. TB May have just tried to cash in on their “wokeness” by doing it before people complained they didn’t do it,

    User agreement is what most companies have you sign before using their servers which includes emails. It’s pretty much a standard form that allows them, as owner of the server, to control what is allowed and determine when a line is crossed. The business gets to make the decisions and the user either signs the agreement or gets no use of the server.

    The problem with your “it isn’t that difficult” is apparently it is that difficult. Consider how often racist was just thrown out over the past 2-3 years regarding everything and everyone trump. No question it was thrown out inappropriately, inaccurately, and really helped diminish the overall negativity of actual racists.
    You can say it’s common sense, but that’s just not true when terms are used incorrectly and at every opportunity.

    After week 5, a huge story revolving around his emails. I’d say the proof is pretty damning against Gruden not to mention he’s the HC that “resigned” (before getting fired) rather than a roster casualty over the offseason.

    You really don’t see the differences?

    There is soooo much subjectivity in this comment.

    Why is Gruden more influential than Lewan?
    How about Mark Allen?
    Or is this strictly about how high on a business totem pole the person is?

    I’ll absolutely argue that Lewan has way more fans than Mark Allen. Maybe not Gruden(prior to the email release), I’m not sure Lewan has that many fans after getting bucked by a DB.

    Do you think Gruden really hated Nassib on the inside but not in public? I say this because if actions don’t add up to the words, does this change the “intent” of his emails?

    Dead on.

    I know I stand alone (maybe) but for football teams in particular, I’ve made the arguments about how team fans don’t care about almost any transgressions as long as the player is helping their team win. Peterson seemed welcomed back to Minnesota with open arms after the “switch” incident. Was Kareem Hunt the RB charged with hitting his gf? Not sure I see Cleveland fans bring that up.
    Just so e examples.

    Forgive the ignorance, maybe I’m behind, but who released the emails?

    I don’t think this is that hard to figure out. No, he didn’t draft Sam for his sexual orientation. This is common sense.

    The rams are in the business of trying to win football games, which brings in more money. Fisher’s job was already far from safe when Sam was drafted. Does anyone really think he isn’t trying his best to pick a guy that can best help him keep his job?

    How has he not already gotten the former clippers owner treatment?
