Yep. Saw that. Not surprising.

Sucks for the low draft picks and the UDFA signings, now all you've got is a couple walkthrough type practices to try and show something, and they're cutting 10 spots in a week. plus very few excuses for the phantom injuries that end up red shirting those lower picks, although I'm sure we'll now have lots of practice 'injuries' to make up for it...

Woody Johnson could be on his way out as an NFL owner...

The billionaire NFL owner who serves as President Donald Trump's ambassador to the United Kingdom was investigated by the State Department watchdog after allegations that he made racist and sexist comments to staff and sought to use his government position to benefit the President's personal business in the UK, multiple sources told CNN.

Robert Wood "Woody" Johnson, the top envoy since August 2017 to one of the United States' most important allies, made racist generalizations about Black men and questioned why the Black community celebrates Black History Month, according to exclusive new information shared with CNN by three sources and a diplomat familiar with the complaints to the State Department inspector general.

Like Goodell will do jack shit. It took Jerry Richardson being just short of a rapist to get him to sell the Panthers, and Goodell fought the whole thing tooth and nail.

Good point. Nothing will happen.

Might as well cancel the whole thing.

We’re probably not far from that now...

Congrats to Liverpool and their fans. Much rather see them win the title than either of the Manchesters, or Chelsea, or Arsenal.

Sunday is gonna be interesting with Manchester United, Chelsea and Leicester all vying for 3rd and 4th place and Champions League football; Aston Villa, Watford and Bournemouth all fighting to stay up; and Wolves and my Spurs both fighting over 6th place.

Hey, keep your boring socialist nonsense out this Great Sport Thread!

I can't believe I didn't realize which thread I was in. I don't even have the excuse of being drunk.

Go Patriots.

This thread has taken quite an unexpected turn!

Listen, if it's any consolation, I liked them before they were good.

DC NFL team renamed ‘Washington Football Team’ for now.

Pfft... Feckless pussies.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

You have the New York Football Giants (official name), why not the Washington Football...Team?

Player numbers will be on the helmets in place of the former logo.

Sure, why not, indeed? It's not like any of this is going to make them play better.

IDK, maybe the team sucked because the players were ashamed of the name?
