Unless your last name is Biden. Hunter made explicit porn movies of himself smoking meth and having sex with girls, including some that appeared to be underage. And none of you GAF. They were on porn sites before the election until all the sudden, *poof* ... gone. Taken down and no mention by the media.

A little consistency would go a long way to help you virtue signalers establish your self perceived moral superiority.
New challenge: Make one post without bringing up partisan politics.

I don’t think you’re capable.
 
The man participated in an illegal coerced pornography scheme. Wouldn’t surprise me if he gets charged with some federal crimes here.

If you think that’s woke cancel culture run amok, you should seek some professional counseling.

Gruden participated in such? If he did, it wouldn't surprise me either, and he should face the consequences of that action.

Difference between you and me is that I'd expect charges to be leveled or that his contract would've been terminated BY ESPN rather than the league leaking his 10 yr old private emails to the press.

Just because he was working for ESPN doesn't mean he didn't have an expectation of privacy from people outside ESPN and the immediate participants in the conversation. Work emails are not public emails unless you work for the government.

If the person in charge of the league has a problem with Gruden disliking him and how he handles things, he still shouldn't handle it in this manner. Doing so proves he's unfit for the position and the power given. He should resign as well.

For the record, I don't believe anything about a case should be leaked to anyone prior to trial. It prejudices any potential jury pool, and the leaked info should be inadmissible for that reason. I think it has helped corrupt our legal system. Engineered public sentiment shouldn't be part of the trial process.

Newsflash, you’re not entitled to privacy when using your employers email. Rather you like it or not, they 100% have the right to read every single word you ever send.
 
It’s disappointing to see many of you appear to defend Gruden. Idk if he’s racist or not but he said some racist things. And he was 48 when he did it. I could see if he was younger. That’s not to mention everything else. This isn’t a political subject. It’s right and wrong.

how many you were personally affected from these e-mails?
was anyone affected from these e-mails?
when did having a personality become a crime?
 
Read the article. Figure it out. You want to stick up for his behavior, have at it. You should go for it at your work place and test your logic.
why are his opinions expressed in a private correspondence so painful to you? are you offended because you are gay?
 
Hey there’s a lot of this going around. There’s a journalist on TV right now who sexually assaulted a woman and admitted to it by email, aided his predator brother in sexual assault damage control schemes to stay in POWER, lied to millions of people about it, and is now REPORTING ON GRUDEN. LOL. And this is the same guy that used the me2 movement for political benefit and headlines. Way worse.

The hypocrisy of this sort of thing is hilarious. Watching the virtue signaling all around the country is hilarious.

Sexual assault is fine as long as you’re on the right team and pushing the right agenda. That’s the big takeaway from the last year while watching the warriors for women and the me2 movement. Be on the right team. And apparently, Gruden is not.

All of these guys should be tossed. ALL OF THEM. Half the country was ready to put one of the worst offenders of sexual assault we’ve seen publicly in the west wing 4 years ago.

I don’t care if it’s sexual assault, racism, sports, politics, or your aunt. If you’re a pos you need to go. And if you’re evading or making excuses by playing games with this, you need to go to.

“stop being political!” - no, YOU stop being political. That’s the point.

Yeah, but how many bans?


Gruden has a known reputation for being an asshole. People seem to either love or hate him. Someone who hates him has most likely been holding this info for a long time, maybe even doing a blackmail thing or the Raiders just wanted out of his contract.

Either way, I couldn't care less about what he wrote or who he wrote it to. This is just another in a long list of him kicking his own ass. He should thank whatever god he worships that he has a high football IQ because his past screw ups point to a sub par intellect.

Oh, and he will have another job by next season. Wonder how he would look in purple and gold?

Did Goodall force Fischer to draft Sams? If so, that was a BS move and Goodall should excoriated for it. Sams was not NFL caliber. If someone thought he was, that is understandable, but if he was drafted for the story only, the NFL deserves some crap as the manipulative marketing BSer it is. Football should be about football. If Sams was good enough, he should be drafted. If not, he should not be drafted. Period. His sexuality should not be on the NFL’s, or any fan’s, radar. The NFL is not affirmative action for the gay community, nor should they want that.
 
easy for you to say sitting behind a keyboard. What if some people started looking into your past and nitpicked every single thing you've ever said in your life to find something to Cancel You from your job and your life?

I guess you're probably a Twitter fan too.

Well most people don't have racist, homophobic and mysogynist emails. From your post I guess that's not true for you.

It's awesome that this stuff isn't tolerated any more. This isn't being woke for the Foxnews groupies, this is about human dignity and not being an ignorant moron.

Weird how that works, huh

Ever think that maybe this a sports message board and therefore we comment on sports related things. It's really not that hard to figure out if you're not obsessed with partisan politics. Not to mention the right ignored greater offenses to prop up Trump.

But if Biden starts coaching and NFL team then it might make news on this board.
 
Here is the one thing about this that stinks to high heaven for me. Companies have had software looking for key words in emails since well before 2011 that would get people fired. My boss got a call from HR about me around 2011 for something I put in an IM. My house got broken into and one of the things stolen was a gun. She was asking me what got stolen and I listed that among everything else. They never looked at context, just that the IM had the word gun in it. I got called out within 24 hours of sending that IM (nothing was done because once she explained context it was dismissed) I don't believe for a second that they didn't have the same software. If you sit on something for 10 years, you have an agenda. I'm not sure what there's was but they had one.

Wow, you really need to evolve with the rest of the world. These emails were disgusting but you're more worried about whether the timing than the actual offense. Of course you're also really upset over the The Washington Football Team so combine the two and I think I know where you're coming from. It's not 1955 anymore, we realize that people of color, women and people of all sexual preferences deserve equal treatment. You know that all "men" are created equal stuff. Stop being racist, its ignorant.
 
How about his players? Do they count? Would you want to play for a guy like that? Not me.
I haven't read any statements from offended players. I would bet, not one player lost a moments sleep over his comments last night.
Wouldn't effect me at all playing for a guy like that. I'm a big boy able to deal with reality in the real world.
I am quite certain you would be sensitive playing for a guy like that.
 
Work email. It's only been said like at least a dozen times already in this thread.
What work email? Gruden wasn’t employed by the nfl in 2012 when most of this happened. And don’t tell me his good buddy al davis didn’t know how gruden talked conducted him self. Honestly you go through the email of anyone associated with the nfl meaning coaches and players and you wouldn’t have a league bc those guys have talked like gruden for generations. This is no epiphany it’s a witch hunt. Again though what is this work email stuff? Someone else’s work email is what it is and it came from grudens private or espn who like I said did not work directly for the nfl. And yeah this is some woke cancel culture BS. Offensive language is protected speech he didn’t say anything that he should have quit or been fired over and like I said al davis and little davis knew gruden inside and out. You guys slamming this guy I know 100% you have said and done things. It’s utterly ridiculous gruden got run out by loser Goodalls gestapo

As the face of a billion dollars corporation, ( which the Raiders are) Gruden can’t pull this shit and survive. I hate all the “wokeness” in our country but IMO that has very little to do with THIS. This stuff would have gotten him fired in the 70’s If you are the head guy you simply can’t do this kind of stuff and keep your job.
He wasn’t even in the nfl if the media timeline is accurate so wtf you mean head guy? He was an analyst he was a talking head an entertainer at the time

What? That’s some slanderous stuff to say without the facts
