No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Re: NFL denies leak amid John Gruden scandal
That’s be quite a feat. I don’t know of too many liberals and progressives who are into football very much. Aren’t they out hugging trees and driving electric cars to their local coffee shops, instead of having tailgaters at the arena? : D
Did I miss some kind of connection made by ajax?

Re: NFL denies leak amid John Gruden scandal
Have you forgotten? Black people disrespected the flag because the NFL let them (and apparently, the flag is same thing as the national anthem). At least, that's the message the ajax types took away from all that.canpakes wrote: ↑Fri Oct 15, 2021 2:31 amThat’s be quite a feat.

Re: NFL denies leak amid John Gruden scandal
Right! As if there were no liberals or progressives who are avid football fans! I think we both know better than that! Perhaps Ajax's bias and projection is showing here. Perhaps he is determined to believe that all liberals and progressives are inherently racist (like he is) and eagerly concludes that the perceived racism in the NFL organization must mean they are all liberals or progressives.canpakes wrote: ↑Fri Oct 15, 2021 2:31 amThat’s be quite a feat.

I guess asking Xanax for a source on his assertion is fruitless.

The NFL Will Stop Assuming Racial Differences When Assessing Brain InjuriesDoctor CamNC4Me wrote: ↑Fri Oct 15, 2021 3:05 amI guess asking Xanax for a source on his assertion is fruitless.

PHILADELPHIA — The NFL on Wednesday pledged to halt the use of "race-norming" — which assumed Black players started out with lower cognitive function — in the $1 billion settlement of brain injury claims and review past scores for any potential race bias.
The practice made it harder for Black retirees to show a deficit and qualify for an award. The standards were created in the 1990s in hopes of offering more appropriate treatment to dementia patients, but critics faulted the way they were used to determine payouts in the NFL concussion case.
Wednesday's announcement comes after a pair of Black players filed a civil rights lawsuit over the practice, medical experts raised concerns and a group of NFL families last month dropped 50,000 petitions at the federal courthouse in Philadelphia — where the lawsuit had been thrown out by the judge overseeing the settlement.
Repeated Head Hits, Not Just Concussions, May Lead To A Type Of Chronic Brain Damage
Senior U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody later took the unusual step of asking for a report on the issue. Black retirees hope it will include a breakdown of the nearly $800 million in payouts so far by race. They fear the data will never come to light.
"Words are cheap. Let's see what they do," said former Washington running back Ken Jenkins, whose wife Amy Lewis led the petition drive on behalf of NFL friends struggling with cognitive problems. Jenkins, an insurance executive, has so far been spared.

Not that I watch the NFL anymore, but I found this article pretty interesting.
I still watch the NFL. The NFL now has 7 teams going to the playoffs from each Conference, and this is the first NFL 17-game season. Link

Re: NFL denies leak amid John Gruden scandal
Seems to me this is a blessing in disguise for the Raiders. They rallied after what happened to Gruden last week and completely owned the Broncos Sunday. Their interim coach seems well-respected and their new play caller appeared clairvoyant.
It's too early to know how this will affect the team long term, but given how they bounced back in the first week, they'll probably be more than fine.
Which sucks. The Raiders are one of my least favorite franchises. I prefer to erase the memory of Jerry Rice ever playing for that team. (I say this fake enthusiasm - it's much harder for me to hate a sports team than it used to be. With free agency and the rarity of a player playing for one team his whole career, it's hard to hold on to a real dislike of any team. It's the players that matter, not the team logo).
