BREAKING: Jon Gruden getting canceled for “racism”

“Dumboriss [sic] Smith has lips the size of michellin [sic] tires,” Gruden wrote in the email, per the report.

In an email released from ten years ago

i watched your link OP and i will quote what the main guy said

1. "Gruden is using these reconstruction era racial tropes against DeMaurice Smith"

reconstruction era :http://www.history.com/topics/americ...reconstruction

2. what Gruden said," **“Dumboriss [sic] Smith** has ***lips the size of michellin [sic] tires,”*** Gruden wrote in the email, per the report.

I guess this is a matter of "jokes vs. more than a joke" and is a matter of interpretation by the NFL commissioner. Stay tuned!
There is an unspoken thing, we are iron brothers and sisters, we are to support each other and...It is our duty to support our brothers and sisters in the iron game!

yeah that is messed up what he said but really one line from an email 10 years ago they want him fired.

miserable people who havent succeeded in life want to see him brought down for their own joy, they dont actually care about the email like they are pretending.

Does anyone think a locker room full of nfl players doesn’t say the same sh*t and worse to each other/ about each other?

Even back in HS and college, we said f*cked up sh*t and it mattered zero.

yes i'm sure this head football coach is racist. not like any of his predominantly black team would have noticed along the way or said something about it. making a racist joke doesn't make you racist. it was a stupid move for sure, but i'll need to see more blatantly racist behavior other than some dumb joke before i call a guy racist.

gruden is a white freckled redhead. what kind of chit do you think the players have said about him in private on the days he rode their asses for underperforming.

How is it racist? Any of those ITT who claims it’s racist, please explain why because it’s not obvious at all.

There’s no way he gets fired, srs

NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith's tenure could be nearing its conclusion, according to ESPN's Dan Graziano.

On Tuesday night, the NFLPA's executive committee took a vote to determine whether Smith should remain in his position. According to the NFLPA's constitution, a unanimous approval vote by the 14-person committee would have kept Smith in the job. But the vote was evenly split at 7-7, according to ESPN.
What are the odds that this email shows up now?

Apparently there are some racists out there that think all black people have big lips. So those racists have deduced that because Gruden 10 years ago said that a dude with big lips has big lips, and that dude happens to be black, in their racist minds that's a racist thing to say and he should lose his job, his family, and his entire life (Apparently)

2021: it's now racist to say a black person has dark skin. Or call out any feature that that person actually has.

We live in a canceled culture. This is why people keep their mouth shut unless they want to lose their job. It's the same for covid. U better go with the media narrative or shut up

Remember when everyone lost their sh*t over Deion Sanders being shocked over a white player in Troy Apke running a 4.35 at the NFL combine? Neither do I.

Wouldn’t this be bigotry, not racism?

Bigotry is speech, while racism is an action against someone because of race.

The reason this is important distinction is because bigotry is not technically illegal as part of freedom of speech. The left has completely redefined these things, to erode freedom of speech until everything is “racist”.

Especially when it was contained in an email TEN YEARS AGO. It's almost as bad as that baseball player who got called out for Tweeting something mildly racist when he was a teenager.

Here's what I don't understand, if George Washington (who for a time owned slaves) was transported to today, would the left try, convict, and sentence him to death for owning slaves when it was legal back then?


this idea that we're going to retroactively find comments from 10 years ago that were otherwise harmless and now prosecute is just mind numbingly retarded. If you want times to change you have to also understand there will be a difference between what is acceptable now vs previously. You can't say because it's unacceptable now that you deserve to be punished when it was more acceptable behavior.

But thinking has never been the lefts strength.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

They pick and choose who gets cancelled. Justin Beiber had that video of him saying "one less lonely n*****r" but they covered for him because he is a big money maker for the industry. So they said oh he was just a baby teenager, he didnt know any better and they paraded out Usher who said he taught him about the pain and suffering of slavery and all the pain he went through living as a black multimillionaire and explained why using the n word was bad. The MSM seemed to think that was a satisfactory result and the jewish record execs continued to make their profits.
