I think there are larger questions about what hasn't been leaked and why, and why the NFL is burying the WFT investigation. But when something is simply unacceptable, hashing out the whatabout-isms doesn't enter into it. |

My guess is that Gruden is part of a culture much like the one I lived with in the buildings trades. Guys on the job sites I worked on told the most racist and misogynistic jokes fathomable. At the end of the day it was just talk and their reprehensible jokes and banter never amounted to anything in terms of their actual behavior towards those they targeted. Nor do I believe that most of them carried that bs in their hearts. That doesn’t make it OK or excusable .but it’s important to note that even good people can fall into the trap of cultural racism. Understanding that could make it easier to reduce such behavior.

I also wish I could believe most people haven’t. I can’t. To denigrate anyone in any case… inarguably wrong. YMMV.

Gruden Is Out In Vegas...
Gruden files suit against the NFL and Goodell. His attorney is asking the very common question: Why were Gruden’s emails the only ones made public out of the 650,000 that were reviewed?

I respectfully disagree. If Gruden sues, he’ll only open Pandora’s box on himself further. I very much doubt that he’ll want to do that.

I suspect that those 650,000 emails will be supeonaed and become public record- which,imaginably, could be catastrophic for the NFL. They have to settle.
I’m sure Gruden plans on making it as painful for the NFL as possible. |

And it is a question that a lot of people have asked: why only Gruden's emails out of 650,000 emails? Was he targeted? In the nation of Denmark is the odor of decay... |

Gruden could make his $100M salary from this. Or perhaps even better far less money but with a public apology from Goodell.

Whoever outed Gruden did not think things through to a logical conclusion in our present day and age. I suspect the only thing more expensive for the NFL than settling with Gruden would be allowing the emails to go public. |

Career assassination. It's a real thing. I foresee many more lawsuits everywhere just based on the way things are going in general. Last edited by edcmat-l1; 11-13-2021 at 01:28 PM. |

Doesn't really matter, though. He's not likely to ever work again, anyway...
