Bet he regrets leaving his TV job but his bank account doesn't. His own fault for being a dumbass and also having crappy view points on things. I'm sure there's other coaches and players with similar outlooks but they don't send it via their employers email/ put it down in writing. Can't be in a locker room full of African Americans when you are using those slurs. No way you'll get respect. What normal person would say crap about their lips etc. That's not including the homophobic stuff etc. I'm sure if I also badmouthed my companies CEO via email and for it to come out id be in trouble as well. Their company, their rules

I blame him for a lot of the "fail mary" broo-ha-ha. He was the one on the broadcast claiming it was a bad call when it wasn't.

Apart from that, I agree. He should be in the league.

Do I need to watch the videos, or can I just assume he says he loves everyone?
It's worth watching. He's specific about stuff rather than just complimenting players.

I tell ya what, man....this is gonna be a good football game. *Nods head*. You got guys like.....DK Metcalf and....Aiden Hutchinson...this is what it's all about, man. Ever see a Seahawk and a Lion fight each other? I tell ya what man. Not sure who would win that fight you got one animal the ability to fly while the other can claw and eat you to death. I tell ya what, man. *Mean look* this is gonna be a football game, man.

He also spoke about Seattle's offensive style (so far) with a spread , putting a RB or TE in motion and possibly getting cues from the sidelines like they do in college .I thought it was worth my time . I like that kind of stuff.

It's a tale as old as time. That was his insecurities talking. We saw the same shit with the old goof troop mfer that owned the Clippers. I have been with my share of white women, and without fail that was their ex dude/current dude/brother's biggest point of contention.

I’ve been with my share of white women too.

Nobody cares about either of our endeavors on that front, we should probably keep it to ourselves from this point forward.

Sounds a bit like John Madden in his later years.

I had to Google what Gruden said. Definitely unprofessional. I have to laugh at these journalists who describe it as "using a homophobic, anti-gay slur". I guess that's how you get people to click articles, though.

Wait a minute.

Gruden mentions in the video that our offense is signaling plays from the sideline like a college team. Is this true? That's the first I've heard it.
