Cam steps in it

[The Prowler]

Wanna play which statement is worse?

"I find it funny that a female is asking about pass routes." - Cam to female reporter Jourdan Rodrigue.

or...

"The Earth moves at 450+ MPH that's 10 times triller than NASCAR, Dale Earnhardt is a bitch nigga." - Jourdan Rodrigue tweet 4 years ago.

Here's what bothers me about the whole thing. 

Someone has decided what is 'right' and 'appropriate' and any thing that isn't within that scope demands punishment and public derision. 

If Cam doesn't like women journalists or finds their questions amusing, that's his personal opinion.  At what point did holding an opinion that runs counter to the determined norm begin to require a punitive response? 

Doesn't that shit all over the first amendment?

What is that gobbledygook?

Looks like numbers from a long forgotten contest...

Cam scored 33.04 points on my fantasy team Sunday.  If he keeps that up I don't give a fuck if he shoots someone in broad daylight with a bumpstock assault rifle while kneeling from a high rise hotel in times square.

Yes it does. But Cam has more responsibility than most to say and do the politically correct thing. Even at the expense of his beliefs, imo. He owes it to his sponsors and team ownership.

Same with kneelers.

But I would think it an easy decision to drop these guys. Shows what I know. They could seemingly urinate on the flag and plenty would make excuses for them.

Most of the left seems more concerned with  the kneeler's right to protest than other's right to boycott the NFL and its sponsors.

Which I am doing. It's my small part. No Nike, under armour or Budweiser, etc.

I've always pictured you in Skechers anyway.

Well, you pictured me right.

Not really about Cam but is relevant to part of the conversation and I don't want to start another thread.  Apparently Jamille Hill from ESPN was suspended for 2 weeks today because of her twittering.

She called for people to boycott the sponsors of Jerry Jones/Dallas Cowboys.  I guess the people at ESPN realized those were their sponsors, too.

But your false dichotomy aside, they have options.
