2016-2017 NFL Season Thread [Archived] Football • Page 154

It was just a yellow card. Alas, we're in different times now.

I agree though. T'was just an old reference on my part. I agree that they should make a stand and speak out on social issues. It's not like NFL players haven't in the past; the league just has a penchant for leveeing ridiculous fines on them for doing things like wearing green shoes to support mental health or wearing pink to support breast cancer awareness outside of October.

 

the reddit conversation about this is mind numbingly awful

 

If you're an athlete who wants to send a message I don't think there's a better time and place than the game itself. Good for Kaep.

 

Yeah that thread ended my time on r/NFL forever and that was the only subreddit I checked so bye reddit

 

Deciding when a person of color should be silent on issues pertaining to their lives and bodies is certainly not a good look

 

Idk you tell me.

 

I mean if you want to jump to that conclusion, I don't know what to tell you


Let's just move on. Enjoyed seeing Josh Gordon toast Brent Grimes last night

 

Just hang it up before you're in a wheelchair for the rest of your life, dude.

 

Alright, Jerry, let's start talking conditions on this pick you're sending to the Browns for McCown.

 

It's time

 

Not trying to take part in this battle of condescending wits, but I will say there is one side of this argument that really seems petty

 

Lucky for the Cowboys it happened now and not in 3 weeks. They can put him on the PUP list, bring him back after Week 6, and not have to burn their IR spot

 

The Kaep thing is especially interesting considering what got made of Gabby Douglas, etc during the Olympics. I'll be curious if he modeled it on that at all, or if its just coincidence

 

So I should drop romo in fantasy right? He should honestly retire

 

Yep, get the fuck off that train while you can. Id be stunned if he's ever 100% again in his career

 

Depressing honestly, glad I picked dak up the night it happened though

 

You motherfucker.. I went to do the same thing and you had beat me by 5 minutes.

or someone else in the dynasty league did.

 

This is why holding your draft before the end of Week 3 is irresponsible. Way too many risks of injury to derail your top picks

 

Well, at this point if you picked Romo it's your own fault.

 

I pledge allegiance, to the Dak, of the football team of America.

 

So who predicted Dak would be the only rookie QB starting week 1?

 

Well, its still possible lynch starts with the way its going in Denver haha we'll see

 

I didn't predict he'd start but he was undeniably the best value.

 

Gonna be really funny if Dak becomes the Russell Wilson to Goff's RG3

 

I'd feel so bad for Romo if that happened

Romo has put up with so many awful and mismanaged Cowboys teams and for them to instantly become successful with Dak after all the patience Romo had for the team to build, while Romo took so much heat for awful Cowboys teams, that'd be so sad.
