@Jett129 Very good comments and I agree. I think back to the Janet Jackson incident and how it affected her career…it’s still debated if it was deliberate or accidental, but you can’t argue that it had negative effects on her career.

With social media being the beast that it is today, either everything will die down by September or he’ll be out of a job before kickoff. Slow news cycles and internet boredom could be his downfall as this is one of those stories that stirs emotions, much like Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction.

I can’t say that it’s right, but in this day and age he should of have had the common sense to walk the narrow line of appealing to the audience at hand (graduating class) and the public at large.

I will also freely admit that I say stupid stuff all of the time and acknowledge everyone does…maybe he learns and grows from it, or maybe society agrees with him.

Guess the verdict will come out in September as you suggested.

Side note: PM sent.

@Matt said in American Football (NFL):

@Alex looks like we play Dallas on Sunday and you guys play Washington on Monday. We aren’t leaving until Tuesday so we can get together both days if you’re so inclined. If both our teams play to form those should be fun games for us.

Very keen for this

@goosehd A few years ago a Chiefs running back,Kareem Hunt,was involved in an incident of domestic violence. The cut him immediately. I don’t think this is in that category. And if they did cut him there would be plenty of teams that would sign him in a heartbeat.

@Jett129 Kareem Hunt went straight to the browns too after a suspension if I recall, so if his drama wasn’t career ending, this def will not be

[Jett129]

@Alex Exactly!

[Matt]

I mean isn’t going to the Browns career ending?

That used to be the case but ol' boy Flacco helped with at least getting into the playoffs last season. I was a little worried about playing them tbh, 11- 6 isn't a bad record.

[Matt]

Please don’t tell me you honestly thought JF wasn’t going to choke at some point? I’m disappointed in you Stevie. You should know better.

[Matt]

But generally speaking I don’t disagree that the Browns aren’t as terrible as they have been in recent years.

[Oaktavia]

@Matt hahaha I just can't shake the fact he was our QB when we won the Superbowl in 2013. I was hoping he would choke but I was admittedly unsure!

[Matt]

He always talked his 2011/2012 game, but he only played it that year. And then only on the playoff run. Other than that he was totally frustrating most of the time.

[Oaktavia]

@Matt My dad would do a funny impression of him when JF was still a Raven. Stone faced, looking around, looking around, shrugs, throws the ball at whoever.

[Matt]

Pretty much.

Billy Cundiff, my all time favorite Raven 🥸

[Matt]

We used to call fucking up royally Cundiffing back in the day.

[flannel slut]

@Matt haha nice. More appropriate for the MLB thread but for all of 2003, “Aaron feckin Boone!” was a socially acceptable outburst in my parts

[Jett129]

For all the Patriots fans on this thread.

It never fails, as soon as basketball and hockey wrap up I find myself watching MNF games from 2019 on the NFL Network at midnight. Looking forward to summer being over and football returning. Planning a trip back to Minnesota this October to catch at least one game.
