    Well, the restart of the NBA and fall football is going to be a sh*t show of kneeling in support of racist and Marxist organizations. You think any white player that doesn't kneel will be met with anything less than what Brees had to deal with? The networks are ginning up a lot of prep for this. Just like NASCAR with the fake noose incident.

    If Riley Cooper's thing happened today he'd be out of the league for life because he's white. Jackson gets a pass because he's black. That's the reality.

    Bubba's mom criticized that some only see Bubba as a black driver. It's as if the media didn't shove that down people's throats and Bubba had nothing to do with it.

    I think the difference in these two incidents is more about the victim culture we’ve created than it is any sort of hypocrisy. Other than Josh Rosen and Mitchell Schwartz, how many Jewish players are there to be offended? The black players don’t care because the Hitler/Farrakhan quotes don’t offend them personally, just as the NBA can exploit China and ignore the Muslim internment camps because it isn’t happening to them.

    Most people only care for themselves because these younger people have been taught they are all special enough to be offended.

    Mitchell Schwartz responds.

    Geoff Schwartz cobbled together a decent NFL career. Started at RT for Ducks as a true freshman. He was in the same class as Max Unger.

    I know a couple of Jewish NFL or Ex-NFL players:
    Julian Adelman;
    Taylor Mays; and last but not least Schwartz’s little brother, Mitchell Schwartz, who is not only smarter (Cal grad), but a better college and pro player than Geoff.

    Geoff is a funny guy . . . Self-proclaimed as a Jewish All-American football player after his senior year at UO.

    He's going to play just like Riley Cooper did.

    You saying he shouldn't get to play?

    I'm not leaning either way because frankly the NFL has lost my interest.

    Do you think the Riley Cooper situation is apples to apples?

    After all, one was a spur of the moment (most likely) alcohol induced tirade. The other seems a little more thought out.

    Either way- it's up to the franchise, and if his 40 time is still decent.
    It's pretty close considering Cooper's slur is derogatory to half his team while Jackson's twats don't directly affect anyone in his locker room.

    I support the team addressing both as issues but keeping both employed and on the field
    I think Desean Jackson is too stupid to understand what he said. I'm quite sure he read it somewhere, it sounded bad ass and controversial and he needed some attention.

    Great player; stupid human being. Describes about 95% of my favorite ballers.

    Oops! Screwed that one up. Assumed the Twitter post was from Geoff Schwartz because he does a lot of NFL-related posting on Twitter.

    Jackson's statement won't affect anything, if you make stoopid statements and are an athlete playing professionally you skate.

    If you make pro America, Republican, Trump, Bush and so on and so on statements you lose in the public arena.

    Same if you are an artist, actor, hell any kind of entertainer.

    Edit: Life in America and our unbiased media

    To be fair the backlash was bad enough to make Jackson apologize for getting caught and the Beagles to make some statement of support for the Juden

    I don't understand why people just don't wear the star so we can get back to work
