So now violence is deemed okay if someone white uses the "N" Word.

When I was in HS my friends and I would say "that's gay" to something we didn't like. Guaranteed now we would be expelled if they heard us using "slurs" like this.

I agree above that words like the "N" word should not provide cover for black people who commit violence using that as an excuse. There was a piece on this on another thread here at CF.

That said Garrett is lying. I was correct back when I predicted his suspension would last the rest of last season but if I was the NFL I would place him on the shortest leash. Remember he had a few obvious dirty licks before his on field assault last year and add to that he is obviously a deceitful butt mule.

But with all the racial talk bandied about in the media where most of it revolves around "white supremacy" whatever the hell that means they carefully avoid a searing truth. In the corridors of some to many black families is an outright hatred of whites which they try their best to conceal. But because those who fall in that category see white people as inherently evil for people like Garrett to make up lies about white people it is ok because they don't see white people as moral individuals. They see them as evil beings. No one in the media dares to discuss what goes on in some to many black households behind closed doors. It is called black racism and according to media drones it pretty much doesn't exist. Which is a horrid lie and an assault on truth.

Until that reality is expressed and put out in the open don't expect a full scale racial healing to take place. Then again the races get along better than ever these days ( mainly due to whites) but black racism is alive and well.

The racial hatred and division is inculcated from the top down, not the bottom up. Blacks and Whites got along a lot better back in the "bad old days" when most black families were intact and there wasn't the endless media and "educational" onslaught stirring up hatred against Whites. Not defending forced segregation just as I don't defend forced integration, but the whole "civil rights" industry has been a top-down directed onslaught against the Historic American Nation with the goal of eradicating every last trace of it and replacing it with something akin to AOC's wet dreams. That's the root cause of the irreparably divided nation we are today.

Anyone who doesn't understand the full spectrum of the organized, undeclared war that's taking place can learn from this article by Paul Craig Roberts:

White People Are Being Erased

1000% False.

Bold-Faced Lie.

I did not, have not, and would not utter a racial-slur.

This is a disgusting and reckless attempt to assassinate my character

It's nice to see Rudolph fighting this head on. When reading the comments sections for this story on other sites it is also refreshing to see how many are commenting against Garrett and his playing of the race card. I have zero faith in the NFL to make blacks adhere to the same standard as whites - just like in regular society. Goodell is a pansy.

I don't think Goodell's a pansy, nor is Manfred of MLB. They are paid extremely well to know the boundaries of racial rules and discourse. Goodell earns just south of $32 million a year to do the owners' bidding. Rush Limbaugh makes around $85 million per year, Sean Hannity around $36 million.

Every now and then a public figure slips up and is ritually lambasted and ruined, but otherwise they all know the unwritten rules of the game. Same goes for the Republican Party. I was reading recently of a lone rural GOP legislator in Washington State who is former military, supports the militias and a hard-core version of Christianity, but is not "anti-semitic." Yet he was the subject of negative national publicity, with the goal being for him to resign in disgrace. There will never be a single representative in the Republican Party that will represent Whites; if one tries he'll be out the next election if not sooner. Congressman Steve King of Iowa was effectively castrated politically for the crime of mentioning White Nationalism in an objective way during an interview.

Shadowlight you are a very racially aware white person. What you just posted is spot on. There will not be any racial healing as long as there are two races of people that exist. Blacks absolutely want to eliminate the white race. The sad part is whites are helping blacks to do just that. In 1950 there were 350 million whites an in just 70 years there are 180 million whites left in the U.S. We have given blacks the green flag to rob, rape, and murder whites without serious payback. Until we go back to the eye for eye justice the white race is over in the not so distant future. I don't think that we can turn this around we have turned the other cheek too long. We have been silent too long.

If this reply needs to be moved to another category feel free to do so.

The other day I was out grocery shopping and saw a young white mother with 4 kids, 3 boys and a girl....shock of all shocks they were all white! White families in the West need to be having 4-6 babies for each family otherwise SL and Booth are very correct in their thoughts. We have ingrained in our white society that having over 2 kids is a financial burden, it is not fair to the woman etc etc Feminist pressure has alot to do with this as well as the Jewish propaganda. It is a mathematical certainty that whites are quickly becoming the minority all over the world. Look at the countries where whites are the minority as in England etc they are terrible places to live now. South Africa is a hell hole, the negroe's cannot run a country no matter how hard they try, they are not smart enough period. I have a good friend who is a RN in South Africa, she is not allowed to leave the country to live elsewhere yet she fears for life everyday, is racially taunted by negroes everyday even at the hospital where she works. I could go on and on and on but very few whites where I live will even listen....they are lambs waiting for the slaughter..

With that caste stooge GM John Dorsey out of the picture it looks like the Browns are now actually considering re-signing Joe Schobert. Just goes to show what a pure anti-white caste system disciple John Dorsey truly is:

https://brownswire.usatoday.com/2020/02/17/joe-schobert-future-with-browns-2020-nfl-free-agency/

Joe Schobert remains a pending free agent, and the question of whether the Browns linebacker remains a Browns linebacker is difficult to avoid. Schobert himself still doesn’t have a good idea where his future lies, in Cleveland or elsewhere.

Schobert recently discussed his fate and how the new Browns management regime impacts his decision and the team’s view of him. In an interview with Sirius XM NFL Radio, Schobert talked about new GM Andrew Berry and the line of communication between them.

“We’ve communicated since he’s been hired, which kinda had broken down with the previous regime,” Schobert said. “But I guess we still just have to see where it goes, see where it leads and if both sides can reach an agreement then that’d be great.”

Schobert is definitely keen on staying in the brown and orange.

“I’d love that,” he said of staying in Cleveland. “But you never know and, as of now, I haven’t really heard of anything. But like I said, I think there’s another month to go and they’re probably pretty busy over there figuring stuff out for themselves with a whole new staff.”

Schobert is coming off his most impactful statistical season, recording four interceptions and nine total passes defended. He’s consistently performed as one of the best coverage LBs in the league. But Schobert was not deemed a priority by the John Dorsey regime and his contract expires at the end of the league year.

Interesting that Schobert's most impressive statistic of all -- tackles, of which he is a top five linebacker in the league -- isn't even mentioned. It would be like a Cleveland sports writer focusing on Jim Thome's batting average and never mentioning his great home run numbers.

I just hope there's genuine interest in Schobert, Martinez, Kwiatkoski and the other high-caliber free agent White defensive players and they don't get screwed by being viewed only as backups or are forced to re-sign at "hometown discounts" with their current teams.

I hope you are right Don. There are quite a few good white LBs that are under the radar players due to racial reasons. Kwiatkoski in my mind should be a surefire starter but of course the "white player bad" mentality is heavily entrenched in national and local sports media as well as with the drunk white dopes who invest way too much loyalty in an arbitrary sports team. I also feel that Tyler Matakevich should be starting in Pittsburgh at one of the inside spots - he would be no worse than Larry Foote who was a mainstay of the Steelers for several years in the early-mid 00s.

Matakevich is almost identical to Kwiatkoski -- a tackling machine who didn't run a sufficiently fast enough 40 at the Combine. Seemingly nothing else matters. Matakevich almost got a chance to start a couple of years ago, but the deafening pre-season outcry against him by the DWFs and media -- I don't recall reading a single positive comment about him from DWFs -- resulted in his quickly going back to special teams. He should indeed be a starter but I would put the odds of that now happening at 100 to 1 against. It would take a large amount of injuries to all the "real" linebackers in front of him and even then he would be nitpicked to death no matter how productive he was, which is what happened in Pittsburgh on those rare occasions when he did get to play.

White linebackers are almost always screwed when their Combine 40 times are over 4.70. Looks like Josey Jewell is also going that same route. About the only exception was Chris Borland, who was instantly so incredibly productive and dominant that he overcame all the racist stereotypes against him.

The 40 time is the most important (if not only) criteria. I once read Tom Coughlin carried a stopwatch with him everywhere he went.

With Brady's status uncertain, the New England dynasty possibly over, and the team seemingly getting blacker by the season, not sure how much I like this speculation, which is highly unlikely to happen anyway. At this point the Rams are easily the more relatively White friendly team.

Trading for Cooper Kupp Would Be Perfect Offseason Move For Patriots

Max McAuliffe

When the New England Patriots defeated the Los Angeles Rams in last year's Super Bowl, it came at a time when the Rams went all in to win a championship. They spent lots of draft picks and signed many core players to big extensions.

Now, after missing the playoffs this past season and going into the offseason with little cap space, Los Angeles has been firing coaches and members of the administration for building for the now and not for the future.

Next offseason, arguably their best offensive player, Cooper Kupp, will be seeking a new contract, as his rookie deal will expire. Except, it is not looking like the Rams will be able to give him the money he deserves, with players like Jared Goff, Todd Gurley, Jalen Ramsey, Brandin Cooks, and Aaron Donald eating up large chunks of their salary cap.

In 2021 Los Angeles will have to re-sign players like Ramsey, Robert Woods, and Kupp. A team with limited cap space cannot hold onto all three of those talented playmakers. Instead of watching Kupp, one of the league's better receivers, walk out the door, they could decide to flip him to another team for draft picks (which they do not have many of).

Los Angeles, as it stands right now, does not have a first round pick over the next two seasons. Currently, offensive lineman Andrew Whitworth's future with the team is in question, and with the 2020 NFL Draft being a deep draft for offensive tackles, trading up might make sense for them.

All these looming factors point to the Rams putting Kupp on the market and seeing if they can get serious draft capital for the former third-round pick.

Why the Rams like New England as the landing spot:
Anytime you trade a young, promising star like Kupp, you want to trade him to a team you don't play a lot. In other words, Los Angeles would most likely prefer to ship him off to an AFC team. No AFC team could use him more than the Patriots could, and with lots of draft capital, the Rams could probably get the most value by shipping Kupp to New England.

These two teams have traded star receivers before. Back in 2018, Brandin Cooks was shipped off to the west coast in a deal that has since brought Isaiah Wynn, Keion Crossen, Ryan Izzo, and Byron Cowart to Foxboro. That trade happened when Cooks was set to have his contract expire and the Patriots were unwilling to commit to him long-term and give him the absurd amount of money the Rams gave him.

New England shipped Cooks there to play him as little as possible. So far, they only played him once, which was last year's Super Bowl. Cooks did not fair well in that game.

Why this trade could be similar to the Cooks' trade:
This trade would be similar to the Cooks' trade not just because it involved shipping a receiver to another conference, or the fact that it would be the same teams doing business. The main reason they would be so similar is the asking price would not be that far from what the Patriots got for Cooks.

The Rams would likely look for a first and third round selection to start off the negotiations. After Cooks and a sixth was traded to New England for a first-rounder and a fourth, that trade would lay the framework for this one.

What the trade could look like:
This might be enough to get the talented slot receiver in Foxboro. Take a look:

NE receives: Cooper Kupp

LAR receives: 2020 first round pick (23rd overall) and one of the projected third round compensatory picks from losing Trey Flowers and Trent Brown last offseason

Why the Patriots do it and how it brings everything together:
In a year where cap space is not exactly plentiful and receiving targets are somewhat scarce, Kupp only carries a cap hit of $1.2 million. That leaves enough to still re-sign other key free agents and or make a free agency splash, such as Hunter Henry or Austin Hooper, for examples.

Most of all, it brings everything together. Kupp is an undisputed number one receiver on lots of NFL rosters. He would be the centerpiece of the Patriots' offense. He is a terrific route-runner, who knows how to get open (two big struggles for New England last year).

As it is rumored that Tom Brady wants more offensive weapons if he's going to stay with the Patriots, Kupp might just be the guy to hold everything together and push Brady to re-sign and stay in Foxboro.

Kupp would alleviate the pressure put on receivers like Julian Edelman, Mohamed Sanu, and youngster N'Keal Harry. Edelman has always been a better number two guy as opposed to having the passing game run through him. Sanu has thrived more as a complimentary piece in the passing game throughout his career, so adding Kupp would help him as well. Harry could thrive on better matchups with Kupp on the field, which would allow him to grow and flourish with fellow youngster Jakobi Meyers.

Lastly, Jedd Fisch now being on New England's coaching staff could help Kupp thrive in New England. Previously on Sean McVay's coaching staff in Los Angeles as the assistant offensive coordinator, if there's anyone on the Patriots' coaching staff that would know how to utilize Kupp, it's Fisch. That's a recipe for success.

What New England would do with Kupp's expiring contract would be interesting. Bill Belichick could go in many different directions from there. Kupp could end up with the same fate as Cooks did in 2018, or he could be worth keeping around.

But if there is one thing we know for sure, it's that Kupp in a Patriots uniform would make New England's offense significantly better in 2020.

If this turns out to be true we might have to move this to the "We are living in a cartoon" thread:

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports Teddy Bridgewater is expected to have a "strong market" in free agency and could land a multi-year deal, paying him around $30 million per year.
Fowler added, "Multiple teams expect Bridgewater to have a strong free agency market as a starting or bridge quarterback for a team in transition. Widely expected to be on the move unless Drew Brees retires." The number is certainly a bit shocking, although Bridgewater does deserve credit for posting above-average rankings in adjusted yards per attempt (15th), QB Rating (11th), TD Rate (13th) and completion rate (6th) among 38 QBs to start at least five games in 2019. Of course, the Saints did offer Bridgewater just about the most QB-friendly offense possible, as he was seldom asked to do more than check the ball down to Alvin Kamara or Michael Thomas. Either way: Bridgewater figures to command starter-caliber money from someone in 2020. The Saints will likely need to make a decision between keeping Bridgewater or Taysom Hill if Drew Brees wishes to continue playing in 2020.

The Bungles sound like a logical landing spot until Burrow is ready to start. But 30 million for a bridge qb/ spot starter type of qb is terrible money management.[/QUOTE]

Bridgewater had one great game where he threw 4 TDs against a terrible Bucs defense who I'm pretty sure ranked 32nd in pass defense. Also his only game throwing over 300 yards but he still threw a pick. Like I said in a different post, the Saints became more balanced and the defense stepped it up for that 5 game stretch and made some key stops. If only they could have done that in the postseason.

Another player that is starting to get hyped up is Cardale Jones with his XFL play. Dwfs are parroting the fact that he's undefeated when he plays and "never got a fair shot" . I recall he threw 2 picks against Northern Illinois and was benched. Then the team came back but I guess that makes him a winner.

From USA Today
Screenshot_20200218-054953.png they go on to say he's a better passer than Taysom Hill....While Hill was known more for his running in college, Jones threw for like 1400 yards, 8 TDs and 5 interceptions in 10 games his last college season on a loaded team that had some great pass blocking. Plus Hill has been learning under Brees and Sean Payton who has done well with qbs (Brees, Romo)

From what little I follow the Pittsburgh sports media, there seems to be close to one hundred percent support of Mason Rudolph against Myles Garrett's hoax. Even Mike Tomlin is now strongly defending Rudolph, in part because clown network ESPN has taken Garrett's side, as the "mainstream media" still pretends even in the post-Jussie Smollett era that all victims of alleged "hate crimes" are telling the truth even as more and more clear-thinking people know that the vast majority of them are hoaxes that should be strongly punished when exposed. But of course the reigning entrenched anti-White Narrative will never allow for that.

An article in one of the local papers about Tomlin defending Rudolph states: "An ESPN interview with Garrett aired in part Thursday and in full Saturday. It positively portrayed Garrett, but what 'hacked off' the Steelers was an ensuring panel discussion in which the reaction to the Garrett allegations were presented as if they were true." ESPN is to "sports journalism" what CNN, NBC and the other national networks are to fake news.

Mark Madden, a Pittsburgh sports radio show host who I've both criticized and complimented on CF in the past, wrote a good piece about Garrett's hoax, going about as far as he could given how restricted honest speech has become in the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave:

Myles Garrett is lying about Steelers QB Mason Rudolph

Gossip Gus here. Yes with Brees returning ( as expected) the party line assumes Taysom Hill will back him up and get more snaps. That said there are a few teams interested in Hill including the Patriots. Indeed I am convinced if Taysom was black he would be nabbed by someone this off season and installed as a franchise QB. He is athletically electric and teams kill for a QB with that excitement factor but they will only make the final leap if said player is black.



TE Greg Olsen signed a one year contract with the Seahawks see above post. He wanted to play with Russell Wilson.

Expect to see a lot of QB rumors the next few weeks as the Combine begins next Thursday.

It seems this draft is boiling down to the health of QB Tua. Several teams have a woody for him so if he passes the physical tests to the satisfaction of the NFL brass expect a huge shake up in the draft. One rumor has the Lions dealing QB Matthew Stafford and picking Tua at number three. But things could get even more muddled if QB Joe Burrow starts to hedge regarding the Bengals. He is starting to send out negative signals about being picked by them even though he is an Ohio native.

Mel Kiper said DE Chase Young was the cute pick to go number one for the longest time but since he didn't play great at the tail end of the season he thinks teams are beginning to wonder if he has Bosa like level talent but the Redskins seem gung ho on picking him at number two.

But if Tua goes third then the Dolphins need to decide if Justin Herbert is their man. Kiper likes his upside and to me he is worth whatever risk the media keeps bringing up.

That would leave the Chargers out in the cold unless they make a move. While on the subject of QBs Kiper feels the next in line is big armed Jacob Eason. Big arms don't go on trees so he will be a first round pick but will he last as long as the Patriots?

Wither Tom Brady then? I still find it hard to swallow Tom is heading to Las Vegas or the Chargers and I would be surprised if he didn't sign some two year deal with the Pats but not everybody in the industry is convinced.

And we know Philip Rivers is out there ( the Colts?) but if Stafford is traded then to what team? The Patriots? Then that would mean Brady is packing his bags.

I sense some of the top QBs in this draft will rise so expect a lot of chaos at the top.

I am ticked they changed the combine schedule. My favorite day is the QB/WR/TE day followed by the DE/LB day. The former was always on Saturday where I could watch the whole thing but this year that group is moved to Thursday. I lucked out a touch since the DE/LBs will be on Saturday.

The OL/RB day I could care less about because there are never white running backs. They are scheduled for Friday. The DBs are on call on Sunday and there is only one DB I could give a rat's ass about and that of course is S Tanner Muse.

Also they pushed up the time of the combine activities so no longer will they start in the mornings.

I don't say that but throw around ****&t all day, I remember on the sports field if you got a hard hit and started crying and whining the older guys would say stop being a girl or a f@#%$t and even little boys didn't want to be that.

F^&^t was just euphemism for soft really, the only regret I had about throwing that word around is one of my high school teammates was a closeted homosexual, on the football field he was brave and had balls. It must have been similar to getting called a racial/ethnic slur all day because in the locker room it was thrown around very loosely.

I am not changing my habits. I still watch ESPN because of convenience and I want to see what the masses are being exposed to as well. Plus I like to keep tabs on the opponent. Yes it can get aggravating but I pick my spots more now when it gets too out of hand.

That said the Taysom Hill discussions are sort of falling along racial lines. Whereas many white commentators think Hill is ready to "have" his own team now, right down the line every black analyst scoffs at that idea thinking he belongs in his current role of playing Little Johnnie to big brother Brees. Their company line is he can't pass. They are adamant.

People have short memories. At BYU he was a very good QB with a strong arm. His preseason play at QB was among the best of any NFL QB as he displayed his passing prowess. Sure he has been a terrific running back and receiver etc. in his semi gimmick role but he is still first and foremost a QB.

I guess I shouldn't get too upset with HC Sean Payton since he has incorporated Taysom into the offense but I also can't let go of the fact he put Hill in the special teams fetch role his rookie season. Who does that to a quarterback?

I know this is blindingly obvious but if Hill was black there would be an uproar in the black sports community and a site like The Undefeated would make a federal case out of the fact Taysom isn't a franchise QB at this point.

That said while the black sports analysts were happy Mahomes bagged a Super Bowl they would have preferred their hero Lamar won it. If Taysom was to become a starter he would intrude on a territory blacks feel by rights is all theirs.

That said while the black sports analysts were happy Mahomes bagged a Super Bowl they would have preferred their hero Lamar won it. If Taysom was to become a starter he would intrude on a territory blacks feel by rights is all theirs.
I remember Ray Lucas played special teams as the 4th qb for the Jets, Joe Theismann returned punts for the Redskins and Tim Tebow did special teams for a bit for the Jets before he got injured on a wedge formation.
