So if we keep having police brutality issues in state's run almost entirely by Democrats, then why are we not asking them these questions Movie, doesn't it make sense to ask why this is being allowed to happen to the people who are in actual charge of these city's?

I certainly did not bring it up to make this thread political. I was simply stating that people tend to copy the behavior of their leaders. Let’s call it how it is. Trump treats people that disagree with him like crap. For the last couple years people have seen one of the most visible leaders in the world challenging others in a pretty awful way. It’s not shocking to me that we’re seeing that being mimicked by many others.

As for the police brutality, it happens across the nation in both red and blue states. I strongly believe that anyone trying to pin it on either political party is part of the problem, and they have little aspiration in being part of the solution. Each and every one of us needs to look in the mirror and ask ourselves what we can do better to help combat the major social and racial problems facing our country.

We have done this dance in here before, would be nice to try to stick to the issue of football and football players, what they said, without letting the stench of other people or issues stink up this thread.
asking nicely

What Drew said wasn’t racist, unlike Jake’s comment.

I don’t think Drew should’ve used the word “disrespect”. It sent the wrong message. But from what I’ve seen/heard of Drew his passion overrode his filter. A simple mistake anyone can make these days. I respect the fact that Drew Brees respects the Flag/Anthem.
This is coming from someone that will always stand/remove hat/hand over heart and/or salute during a public singing of the National Anthem.

I’ve been a sports fan all my life, however not as much anymore (athletes not the same as before )

One of the workers at SoFi fell off the roof and passed away.
Sad day. I was a couple hundred feet away. Couple of my coworkers were within 20 feet and called 911 and tried to help, to no avail.
Prayers to his family.

On the flip side, that's why I just can't get into college sports. The teams look totally different in the matter of 2 years.

Pro sports is like that too these days, so I dont know lmao

If you’re winning ~52% you’re almost Godlike. Sustained winning ain’t easy. Sharps, while in play for a small period of time, eventually fade.
House is the only winner.

Im in nj - due to all the sportsbook competition theyre always giving bonuses, odds boosts - they even give bonuses just for depositing for crying out loud.
If someones only winning 52 with that then yea they really are dumb.
+ the problem is people wanna win a ton of money - thats hard.
I just try & win a i little at a time - $20 here $10 there $15 here - by the end of the yr it really does add up.
