NFL players feel Gronk benefits from a double standard.

[heart]

Even DuBois talked about that in Souls of Black Folk

And yeah Golic is your average "middle 'merica" cac racist. Dude reacted to Kaep like this

Golic's initial reaction to Kaepernick: rage - ESPN Video

Yeah he has said it on more than one occasion on how he feels about Kaep. The levels of racism from the owners to gm's to fans is something I wish more respected journalists would call out.

The reason for this thread and topic is because players wanted to be anonymous about how most feel about a guy like gronk. Again that's why cam's name was mentioned in the piece and everyone knows why I guess with the exception of Golic.

But a guy like Golic is the epitome of what a white supremacist is 2017 is, middle class irish background, conservative who only wants to make America great like it was 40s - 60s when he was a kid living with his parents.

Different subject but ultimately the same subject with racial overtones. Deshaun Watson was a big winner in college but Mitch Trisbusky only played in 13 games in college, never did shyt but looks the part while people question the intellect of Watson/Kizer being pro QB's.

I can't even imagine the shyt that Warren Moon went through, Doug Williams was completely emasculated by the NFL after winning fukking SB MVP... I can go on and on. The NFL is a mirror of what America is Today in a lot of ways.

Pretty sure Cam went 15-1 and made it to the Superbowl while playing the best football of his career and being named MVP....and still got shytted on by cacs for celebrating and giving footballs to kids.

That's not a fair comparison because even though Cam got some backlash from a few talking heads about him celebrating after every touchdown. Among the general consensus, there was a majority landslide of people who had no problem with what Cam was doing on the field. Players around the league even came to his defense about his celebration. But if Cam or Gronk was on a losing team none of it would be tolerated at all.

....Nggas stealin First Take topics....then runnin over to theCOLI to recreate a thread.....

Nd "yes" theres a double standard

The backlash lesean McCoy received for throwing a party at his OWN HOME said enough

 

[godkiller]

We all know that the NFL is the most league by far
Just look at how black QB's are treated
They never get a second chance
But if you're a Matt Schaub you have a job for life
I wonder why

It's American Football culture to be , the NFL is by far the most racist of all the major sports.

I'm Canadian and hockey is far worse.

Duh...

I thought the commotion about his party was that the poster used the Bills logo with the party being in Philly post-trade and that it was 'females only'.

Yeah this was the case esp the "females only" part. You know how women must be protected at every turn from the big bad men and or simps were using it as a way to get points with chicks on some sucker stuff.

Even the article is covering for him by saying his maximum effort is what leads to his injuries.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

That fool can't do his job but be out here having all the fun lol. Plays maybe 6 games a year and he out here wrestling and shyt wtf
?

What off the field event has contributed to one of his on the field injuries?

I'll wait.

Saw Gronk at Rehab in Vegas last year. He was lit and had hoes everywhere

If only the black players had a backbone and realized they make the game what it is and quit playing to create they own league.

But naw they fine being "millionaire" slaves...

Didn't say it did but he is the first player who I have heard described as someone who gives effort to the point of getting hurt. If the writer just would have said that he is injury prone (which is true) then he would have been good. It's all about the way you word shyt and he made it seem like Gronk only gets hurt cause of his ability to give his all in practice and on the field. When the truth is he's gotten hurt cause he's got some nice hits laid on him over the years.

 

[JameisNewton]

No ever says his injuries can be attributed to his drinking ( yes football is violent) because well that's too far fetched, yet weed is the terror from the depths of hell. the answer is obvious the real shyt lies in the perception of fans via the media.

I don't drink anything but water and I have a sprained wrist and plantar fasciitis in my right heel from playing pick up basketball alone
