Not only did they keep him, but they gave him an extension. They also cut Vick the only guy on the squad who backed him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But any form of that word should not be said by a white person, I don't care where you were born or who you grew up with. Rap or any type of music is art. Just like there are statues of naked peeps.

E-A-G-L-E-S Eagles Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 The precedent has been set by the Eagles with Cooper....and then Jackson. They won't cut him for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madriver Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 What kid nowadays doesn't hear the n word multiple times when listening to music? And sing along or mimic said music? It's absurd. Now the Djax comments, that's different. And IMO adding the 'r' to the end of the word and not in a music context is far more egregious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the cap situation being what it will be over the next couple of seasons and with so many overpaid underachieving players on the roster I think you will see an overhaul. I think that should start with the guy who assembled this team, but since he’s a favorite of the owner I doubt he gets his walking papers. 41 minutes ago, time2rock said: Assuming calling it out as fake was in reference to the "lifelong Gerry fan” part.

jmac+djaxallday Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 If anyone should be apologizing, it's the Eagles organization, not Gerry. This stuff is supposed to be thoroughly vetted during the draft process to prevent PR nightmares just like these from occurring. I don't care if he's a 5th rounder. Sure it may be tedious to scroll through everyone's social media history, but that's what you get paid to do. This should have been scrubbed a long time ago, and it's for the sake of the black fans and the black players in that locker-room as much as anyone. Now it's something they have to deal with (which includes going though the act of "forgiving" him, even though we all know forgiveness isn't something you instant download on your tablet). Is this to let Gerry off the hook? No. Wherever he grew up and however he spelled it, he knew full well not to use that word. But that doesn't mean he should be retroactively held accountable for it now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
