Yes, but I saw those comments as political in nature.

Looking at Michael Sam's career, he did have a pretty good stat line.

Nothing that scandalous, just something about spending some time in Nebraska and the Caymans.

Exploring the twin peaks and a waterslide down the valley?

Now that you mention it, it did sound like a great trip.

The Raiders mercifully left Gus on DC duties.

What a dumb take.

Let's trade one overrated and outdated coach who's in a scandal for another. Brilliant!

It was a joke but yes I'd take Jon over Urb easily.  Gruden has always been a good coach and still is, as you can see he has a bad QB as the 2nd leading passer in the league with a "bad" oline

That outdated coach made the Raiders relevant and competitive again and turned Carr into a franchise QB.

The dumb take here is on your side of the curtain.

They'll either end up 3rd or 4th in their division. So who cares?

The idea of trading one coach caught in a scandal for another coach caught in a scandal is dumb. That's the point.

Hahaha they were already going to be 3rd or 4th with or without Gruden. Chargers and Chiefs are miles ahead of them and the Chiefs aren't even playing that well.

I was being facetious. The cancel culture mob isn't a forgiving one until they become the target.

Funny. It isn't politics and it isn't religion that my simple statement is about. People aren't basically good. This situation is horrible and good thing he already made his money because it is now over. 

This is entertainment and sports allegedly but these public trials over private emails is stupid as his comments.

This is true and it has nothing to do with religion or politics.

Same here.

Even taking what might be considered by many politics out of the equation,  5 reasons come to mind why I believe he's a subpar Commissioner. In no particular order:

1. The ordered destruction of Spygate evidence.
2. Gregg Williams not getting a lifetime ban from the NFL for his role in Bountygate.
3. The NFL relocation process, which led to 3 teams moving.  
4. Playoff expansion.
5. NFL Officiating is even worse on his watch than it was previously.
