NFL (since 2016)

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

DC Mighty Dicks?

[Hermit Road]

The other thing is that Washington is in the process of being cancelled so a whole new name is needed.

[Far Cough]

Will the Atlanta Braves fans stop using the Tomahawk Chop?

[Hermit Road]

"In a survey last year by the Washington Post, itself a pretty left-leaning outlet, 90% of Native Americans didnt want it changed and were asked to name a reason why. The most common reason given was that they were proud of it. 100% of metropolitan liberals disagree though so ot is definitely getting changed."

[Nutsin]

I'm thinking the Washington half chaps. It's America so probably the washington mullatos.

[the coming of gary]

Washington Redskins to carry out a review into the team name (translation - it will definitely be changed) .

"Sorry boys, usually only check this forum at work which i obviously havent been for some time now. Assuming their is an NFL season this year are people still keen on another fantasy league?"

[Nutsin]

"Cam newton to the Patriots on a 1 year prove it deal. Could be a good fit. Pat's also received a 1.1 million dollar fine for their TV crew being caught cheating, I swear Billicheat is a Democrat."

"Saw him play the London game, was it 2013, Niners looked a top outfit and he was hard to stop. Long time ago now tho."

[Grumpster]

"Kaepernick is crap. Once they found out all he could do was run, that was him fucked, as he was average with his arm."

[Hermit Road]

Nike are paying him millions to be their pet Marxist.

[Far Cough]

How is he earning then?

[Hermit Road]

He was rapidly declining and was shit by the time he made his protest. He earns more from taking that knee than he ever would have earned for throwing a ball.

[Far Cough]

"https://nypost.com/2020/05/30/ex-nfl-exec-vikings-should-do-right-thing-and-sign-colin-kaepernick/ Go on Vikings, sign him Must admit apart from the knee thing I don't know a lot about him, is he decent?"

[Far Cough]

Kaepernick has been vindicated: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-52945934

Just finishing the first series based on your recommendation. It's a good watch. The missus even loves it as it reminds her of Friday Night Lights which she watched all of. Did Last Chance U get their idea from that show?

[Northern Sold]

Any of you Grid Iron lads bored in the evening have a look at Last Chance U (Netflix) all about the college system with ex stars in the Uni / NFL getting a last chance of making it big... superb viewing what I have seen so far... worth watching for one of the best 100 man brawls you will ever see (East Mississippi v Mississippi Delta) ... better than the end of the Wanderers

[Hermit Road]

Of course he has. It is the inevitable response to someone in public life saying something inoffensive but off the accepted script. Look at what he said. It was benign in the extreme. Nothing but 100% orthodoxy is allowed.

[El Scorchio]

"He's now issued an apology ""I made comments that were insensitive and completely missed the mark on the issues we are facing right now as a country,"""

[Nutsin]

Cometely agree Hermit.

[Hermit Road]

"What he said isn't even controversial and he is renowned as one f the nicest men in US sports. A truly good man whose politics mean he has to be hated and ostracised because the left wants diversity of everything, except thought."

[Nutsin]

"Drew Brees is a Republican. He is currently getting lit up by everyone, even his own team mates for comments he made about the US flag. Malcolm Jenkins isn""t happy. Locker room chemistry on that team is gonna be interesting next year. I thought they were all in on a superbowl next year."

[Nutsin]

"No owner is gonna make Kapernick the face of his franchise. It will cost them too much money. Football is a business, not a political party or a civil rights platform."

[Far Cough]

"Hmmm, Kaepernick to the Vikings, perhaps? https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/49ers/vikings-should-sign-colin-kaepernick-contract-ex-nfl-exec-believes"

[El Scorchio]

This thread has once again reminded me. Still no-one heard from Miike? Last post March 25th. Very surprised to see him not chipping in/doing his nut over who the Redskins drafted....
