    Idk where he even goes from here. He’s done on the field and in the booth. Two multi-million dollar freebies just “poof” because you just had to TYPE OUT AND PUBLISH completely unnecessary bullshit.

    Btw, may have missed this, but how did these emails even surface? Leaked by the recipient?

    I do wonder how this situation could have been different if Gruden wasn't owed $60M that his owner was trying to avoid paying him.

    we see with the players how much teams are willing to overlook for the sake of wins, I wonder how much a coach could get away with if he was great at his job.

    my guess is there's enough in these emails that made it impossible to keep him regardless, but where is the line.

    I don't think it's necessarily productive to pile onto a guy for just being shockingly ignorant about something. Guy asked an extremely dumb question but that's also how you learn shit.

    Does Gambler have a sketchy posting history that is helping cultivate this?

    Yea the line is a moving target depending on how good they are, which is wrong. But that's the case with most people at most jobs. The top producers can usually get away with more.

    I think it probably falls somewhere between the lips comment, which a team desperately wanting to keep a coach would have released a statement saying it was a one time thing and was based on ignorance and he didn't know it was racist and he would educate himself, and the comments that came out last night, bc those get every coach fired.

    no question that what has been released is just the tip of the iceberg. There has to be WAY more shit in these e-mails, and Davis offered Gruden the chance to resign over them or have the entire dirty laundry aired I bet. For a guy like Davis, who was totally obsessed with Gruden and hired him after he'd been out of the league for a decade, to move this quickly means there has to be some truly heinous shit in these e-mails with examples going on for years. What has been revealed is already awful, but I bet the rest of it has to be so outrageous that it gave fanboy Mark Davis no choice but to axe him.

    I kinda understand why DBL is saying cancel culture is Bullshit because it has a negative connotation, and these people are being punished for fairly straightforward vile acts that they did knowing it was shitty

    also very rarely are these people under the age of 30 it’s generally people that have had plenty of time to know better
