Tyron Smith is the best and most respected player on the Cowboys.
That's who I want to kneel.

Man fuck you, Ben.
I'm also fucking tired of these idiots thinking kneeling = disrespecting servicepeople.

Belichick also released a statement.
It says absolutely nothing.

Back end of the Pats defense has more talent than last year. Hightower being hurt and losing their draft pick to season ending injury has left them weak at the front, but they will figure it out by week ten.

Here is the full BB statement for those interested in reading a bunch of words with 0 real meaning.
All the good nbagaf posters don't even post here anymore.
"we will work together to find the best way to proceed"
It's not that hard...Some of these coaches are making things more complicated for themselves. Let the players sit, kneel, stand. Whichever each individual wants.
Chip Kelly set an easy example for them last year.. Just say you might not agree but they are exercising their rights as citizens. Simple as that, next question.
Fake edit- I will say that if I was a coach I would ask that they not sit, but either kneel or stand (be it fist or not)
If they want to sit to show how much social injustice awareness means to them.. then yeah I'm ok with it.

Hyundai on yesterday:
GET FUCKED.
I disavowed Ben and the entire NFL months ago.
Pretty sure you are still wearing your Brady jersey and it probably still has Trump's stink on it.
JCBs clean.
Don't try to put your dirt on us. Its too fucking clean on the rooftops for us to deal with your mess.

Hyundai on yesterday:
Man I hope more sponsors come out like this. Would be amazing for the business community to essentially tell Trump to stuff it.
They people who have a problem with "kneeling", who have a problem with anything outside of hand over heart and shutting the fuck up.
Let's say Kap never sat or kneeled... if he started his protest with a raised fist. Those same folks would've STILL went crazy!
If all the players compromised and all stood, but some raised their fists... same folks would eventually go crazy and want that gone too. Even though they are just demanding players to stand.
Despite the heartbreaking fashion of our loss there are still a lot of positives to take away as Lions fans. The Falcons are the #1 team on SI.com Power Rankings. Are the Falcons that much better than us?
We had to start a guy named Zac Kerin at Left Guard because our starting center Travis Swanson is out. I'm privy to the Lions roster and the moves we make but I had not heard of him until yesterdays game. We were also without our stud rookie MLB, Jarrad Davis, and it really showed as the Falcons ran all over us.
The positive is that Matthew Stafford has reached a level of play at QB that possibly only Tom Brady is playing at right now. He finally has free reign to run the offense as he see's fit and is running the offense from the line of scrimmage, Peyton Manning style.
Stafford makes some throws and reads that no person on this planet can make.

A film breakdown of some games from last season, against the Jaguars and Bears, where he's making what should be impossible throws. He made some brilliant throws yesterday. Stepping up into the pocket and avoiding pressure then passing the ball perfectly over a LB into triple coverage. Come playoff time bring on whoever.

I'm still in shock about how the raiders went to D.C. to do their interpretation of seppuku on national television.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
They kinda already did when Charlottesville happened and his business leadership board all quit. I'm all for businesses shitting on him again though.

Patriots defense might be bad but Flowers and Wise are gonna be great players.
I don't know if would be possible to fuck up the situation worse than Tomlin did.
He should have just let players come out and kneel or stand if they couldn't 100% agree. Instead he has AV out there by himself and then Ben's rapist ass feeling the need to assure everyone he's still a patriotic good boy because he was being compared negatively to the former military man.
Dude better hope he can keep the locker room together.

Again, like every year, no reason to make any statements about who is good and who is bad in the league at week 3. Things change so much before the regular season ends.
Pats had few key injuries on D but the secondary is better (on paper) than last year. When they traded Collins last season the defense was mediocre and people made a big deal about the trade. By the end of the season they were much better.

Yeah the patriots defense always takes about a month or so to find itself.
Matt Prater is the first kicker in NFL history to make four 55+ Yard field goals in a season. We've only played 3 games.

Pay attention rook.
I am out. I have been saying that for months.
I only come in here to chat with my bois. Specially the Joy Con variety.
That and to remind BG that he is and always will remain a mark ass busta. I am sure he has mirrors in his house and knows this but it can't hurt to remind him.

Wow. Ben has me blocked me on twitter and I never even tweeted him or followed the rapist trumper.
The Eagles media team is the best in the biz. Cool video of Merrill's call of Elliott's game winner.

How are the Seahawks doing
Just fine, thanks for asking!
You're "out" or are you like Walter White "out?"
Its all good cuz.
Its always good when you doing the right thing like me and you have done since January!
I want to say that being good is enough. But to completely honest I also like the moral superiority and smugness that comes with it that you and me now own.
I am out.
I don't remember the last time I actually made about football. I have seen maybe a quarter and a half of football, not because I wanted to, just because I was at someones house and they were watching it.
See Deacon, THAT'S what a non-statement looks like:
And that's what a fucking awful statement looks like:
Fuck the Steelers.

Not for long
Tomlin put it to a team vote. Was he supposed to tell everybody what to do and force them to toe the line? You guys really want facism. Do as I tell you, just not what Trump tells you!
Villanueva really fucked it up. Don't say one thing, do another and then scurry out of the locker room after the game. You can run into enemy fire, stand and answer some questions. He put everyone else on the team in an awkward positon of trying to explain his actions when he had the opportunity to do it for his self.
Ben's allowed to have his opinion, also. The point of all of this should be to try and respect differing points of view, not just shit on the nearest available target. Dude should still retire tomorrow, but that's because he sucks.
