"Tell you"... As if I owe you something.

Maybe this is why you would never understand... Continue on Mr.

That is an elementary argument.
Agree. Its totally different when saying racist stuff about your own people. It just isn't as offensive. The argument white people should be bringing up is why isn't it a big deal when blacks use racial slurs against whites? I heard cracker this and whiteboy that growing up, especially when playing sports. Im 100% positive that Riley heard the same things as me while growing up across the bay from me, especially considering he plays wide receiver.

Who exactly is that? Jeffery Lurie? Chip Kelley? Howie Roseman? You know, the guys that determined his punishment.
I'm talking about the people at ESPN. You know, Stephen A., etc.?

Cooper is from my neck of the woods...he had issues with getting drunk in high school and getting stupid...he smashed a car window in with his bare hands of some girl he was p.o.'d at...could have ruined his career...really not a shock...

What about the white people on ESPN who had something to say about this? And do you know if Stephen A uses the word? Do you know how he feels about other black people using the word?

Are you OK with the punishment that was handed down?

Oops, I forgot that, when I wrote it, I meant the guys in that locker room hollering about it. And yes, I do think they use the word.

But, back to Stephen A., from the way he was screaming on First Take, yes I do know how he feels.

CinSonic - There are already reports that players will be gunning for him this year. We'll see.

Manderly - Apparently, David has a problem with black people. Since the vast majority of NFL players are black, maybe he shouldn't follow football.

Was Roddy White ever fined for suggesting on Twitter that the 6 jurors should go home and kill themselves?

No, that really isn't the case. Maybe you should just read this article:Philadelphia Eagles' Riley Cooper Being Held to Hypocritically Harsh Standard | Bleacher Report
