I like and appreciate the Code Red reference Florio used from "A Few Good Men".

Who had it in for Gruden and why? Who had the power to make him go away? Will it stop at Gruden?

Bo made a good point... remember who specifically he called the gay slurs

And what team he coached

And who was specifically on that team.

We will NEVER know

But all signs point to the NFL doing the leaking themselves

And targeting those specific emails to be released in that specific order.

Cause they said EXACTLY what I said from jump.

Yeah they tried to ignore the racist emails

But NO ONE TRIED TO PUBLICLY DEFEND THE HOMOPHOPIC ONES.

I can't find it as it seems like ESPN has removed it but I remember when Jameis Winston was on Gruden's QB Camp show before the draft that year. Basically Jameis murdered that shit as he was able to describe every play on tape in clear detail along with going to the whiteboard and disecting an entire defense and what QB read to make based on how the defense is lined up and their movement. The more info he gave it appeared that Gruden was getting angrier like "How this nigga know all this football shit?"

Remember it like it was yesterday, and at the time I didn’t want to jump to conclusions, but I have learned to trust my intuition since.

Gruden did an amazing job hiding he was mad as fuq.

When you think about how they describe Gruden loving to talk ball, anywhere-anytime-anyplace, could probably do it in his sleep.

How he was being compared to Howard Cosell and John Madden when it comes to being the best talking head on MNF.

Then a Black kid that can’t buy a f*cking beer, fresh off of a scandal, from a school that is not known for qb’s coming to the league wows his ass the whole episode…reading defenses…analyzing offensive options…he saw his mortality.

Not that Winston would want to color commentate or head coach, but the track that Guden came from didn’t show a gap against this kid fresh to the draft with 0 pedigree.

In other words, Fam, I saw…exactly…what…you…saw.

I knew it then.

Tony Dungy Gets Dragged Into Jon Gruden Mess: TRAINA THOUGHTS

1. Tony Dungy, who has a history of trying to clarify controversial comments, is now trying to clarify his defense of Jon Gruden.
During NBC’s NFL coverage Sunday night, Dungy and Mike Tirico weighed in on Gruden’s racist emails regarding player’s union head DeMaurice Smith from 2011 that had become news late last week.
“I’m not gonna chalk everything up to racism. I think we accept his apology, move forward and move on just like he did with this team.”

Less than 24 hours after Dungy made a plea to move forward, a whole new batch of offensive Gruden emails became public.
Naturally, social media had a field day mocking Dungy’s take from the night before, and he was trending most of Tuesday morning. The NBC studio host clearly got wind of the reaction, so he took to Twitter to defend his stance.




Yes, things got much worse for Gruden when the second leak happened Monday, but I still don’t understand why Dungy would go on national TV Sunday night and basically dismiss the initial batch of emails. It was a terrible look Sunday and an even worse look Monday.
This is far from the first time Dungy has needed to issue a clarification for his comments. After famously saying he wouldn’t draft Michael Sam, who was openly gay, in 2014, Dungy, who is not exactly an ally to the gay community, ridiculously tried to explain that his reason for saying he wouldn’t draft Sam wasn’t because Sam was gay, but because he would be a “distraction.”
Well, clearly that was correct because Carl Nassib, the first openly gay active player, has been a distraction for the Raiders. All people talk about all day on Sundays during Raiders games is that Nassib is gay! Who knows how much better the Raiders’ 3–2 record would be if Nassib’s sexuality wasn’t such a massive distraction every Sunday.
Dungy’s seemingly oh-no-big-deal reaction to Gruden’s comments about Smith reminded me about what Shannon Sharpe once said about Dungy after Dungy stuck up for Drew Brees, who had said he’d never agree with anyone disrespecting the flag regarding NFL protests: “What I’ve seen the NFL do, is that when a player or owner or coach says something, 1-800-TONY-DUNGY and he’s the crisis manager because he’s so good in our community that if Tony says it’s O.K., it’s O.K. Come on, Tony.”

It does seem like Tony’s standard M.O. for any and all controversies is “let’s forgive.” Well, that’s a cop-out. You can forgive, but you can also call for consequences.

ADVERTISEMENT
Every incident should be judged on its own. Sometimes a person deserves a slap on the wrist. Sometimes they deserve 24 hours of getting crap on social media. Sometimes they deserve to be fired.
The blanket take on every single issue can’t be, ”Let’s forgive and move on.”
Tony Dungy should do better and so should NBC’s studio show.

Shit like this upsets me to no end.

Every time you try to hold someone accountable for what they did that person and a ton of people begin to tell you who they are.

You might not be racist or shown racist tendencies in the past, but what you said/did WAS RACIST AS FUCK. And at the end of the day you should be held accountable for that...
