Nothing wrong with that. Come on man, he had a secret shipment sent to his house in his wife's name and had thugs go and strong arm the dude who injected him.

Big Bubba Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 It's not that coaches fault!! Everyone else is just being ultra PC. Tired of everyone being ultra PC when someone on my favorite sports team screws up and brings negative attention. Everyone was also being ultra PC and trying to talk about it........ when Cox got physical with that Cardinals scout/coach. Anyone that talks negatively about the Cox incident is just being thin skinned and ultra PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm sure somehow there is a racist, homophobic, bigoted white make involved somewhere along the lines) I would hope Loretta Lynch can bring the harshest of punishment down by the Justice Department who should start an immediate investigation into the NFL and all teams should lose draft picks. purple// The PC mob is whipping thus up Int as much of a frenzy as they can and the media wil, be all too willing to help stoke the flames of division. Most likely trying to pressure the Falcons into firing the coach for asking a stupid question. This is textbook PC mob tactics, not happy until someone loses their career over a stupid question. People are dumb.. They look for sexism and racism at every turn.. Asking someone if they like men or women if there African or African american shouldnt be looked at as sexism/racism.. It should be Looked at as do you like black or blue more? Screw PC and everyone that fights these issues by making groups that segregate themselves as there trying to fight not to be.. Dumb as F.

It has nothing to do with being PC. If you are interviewing for a job, your sexual preference or age has nothing to do with it. If you walk into Target for a job interview, they can't ask you "how old are you?" It is an illegal question. This just didn't come into being last week or 10 years ago. The NFL is just ignorant to a lot of things, bottom line. If you get into a shoving match with someone, it doesn't matter if you didn't hurt them. It doesn't matter if you didn't push them down. Assault has been committed. That is the law. This situation is potentially no different. If Apple doesn't want to file a claim, it may end there legally, but that will not stop the NFL from smacking the Falcons down again. Yet another misstep by this crew. The stupid question were dumb and some what "thought provoking" 10 years ago. Enough is enough, be professional and ask real questions about the candidate.

Rise Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) The Falcons (are not) the only team asking these type of questions, and it is much softer than what The Dolphins (former) GM did years ago. Apple just told what goes on behind the scenes (And he was doing an interview, and did not seem that upset about it..) Any other player would've brushed it off though, and never mentioned it. Young players are just spilling more... Edited March 6, 2016 by Rise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazoo Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I think the title of the post is mysogynist and it's time for women's groups to put a stop,to these type of offensive references . DLed should be fired immediately and an investigation into the AJC to see just how far this goes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD-FalconFan13 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Guys we know that, to most people, in a casual situation this is not a big deal. But this is not a casual situation. It's a job interview. And certain questions are not permitted. Not to mention the league gave classes and warned teams not to do it. There's just no excuse for it. Now you get our team a bunch of bad press and the league involved but folks keep saying it's not a big deal. It's as big a deal as they make it. Hopefully they don't treat this like a poster child case and ding us hard. But they could and completely justify it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm wrong, but while I think he should be punished internally by the team for asking a stupid question, I think the outside PC mob forces will put some much pressure on the team and league that they will have no choice but to fire him. Every single person in the mob has said things far more offensive/ stupid and did not lose their jobs over it, it's sad to see the ugliest side of humanity surface with these kind of issues.

MAD597 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Regardless of your opinion on the subject matter or your idea's about the world being to PC, these coaches and EVERY front office were told in depth to not talk about this kind of stuff and the fact they did it anyway means they are idiots. Same reason people look down on combine prospects failing drug tests, it's not the drugs it's the fact they were stupid enough to get caught when they knew they'd be tested. These coaches are idiots for disobeying league orders and not understanding the current political climate in our world that would be taken a back by these kind of questions.

You're the same fool that didn't believe Michael Vick was guilty of killing dogs. Then, only after he was convicted and went to jail did you change your tune. I hear there's talk at Fox Network of changing Homer Simpson's character to You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
