Did Masthay and Motrell make racial remarks too? Barrington? Burt Favre? I'm not saying it couldn't have happened, but we also have no evidence it did.
I acknowledge it's difficult not to conclude Sitton did something to piss off Ted and/or Mike. He dropped a pro bowler with no compensation in return. That's a very uncharacteristic move by Ted. However, whether it was fickle, legitimate, racial, or whatever we have NO clue right now. If Lang doesn't know what happened, Chmura sure as hell doesn't either. You're really going out on a premature ledge with this KKK/Bears didn't do their due diligence stuff when you, like the rest of us, have no clue what happened.

Coincidences are like coin flips; they're random. Out of 10 coincidences close to 5 should point to bigotry and the rest not. When coin lands on heads 90+% of time, it means the coin is weighted; when 90% of things point to bigotry...I'm not saying, I'm just saying. This is how a circumstantial case is made.
You are supporting my circumstantial case as well!!!!!!!!!!
I provide each piece of evidence that NARROWS the possibilities and still points to bigotry. You bring up stuff like Mastay and Barrington and understate how Ted acted "uncharacteristic" when he actually acted unprecedented, flouting his total nature and way of doing business [McCarthy nor Ted made any preparation for the cut and I demonstrated how EASY it was for Ted to get a pick for Sitton and he said, "No, I want this SOB outta here by 5 PM!"]. This shows you have no evidence to deflect the reason was bigotry.
We have a clue, whatever it was, we know it was really bad!
Chmura said he knows; could be a lie, he could be sincere and wrong. He said we're ultra sensitive now, Sitton wouldn't have been cut in '96 for his infraction. That's evidence.
You can read Lang's emotions, have at it, but I dont know how you think that is reliable. I put more weight on what he SAID relative to the question asked. Did he misspeak? Maybe; but if not, Lang is a dick! And, watch this: Lang wont be talking like that anymore. He was told to stop it!
And again, if Chmura knows, so does Lang, right? Lang's upset, why, his best bud in the whole world is gone, right? If you buy that, how could you disregard that Lang knows why Sitton got canned. If you buy that Sitton didn't tell Lang, then what Sitton did was so bad he couldn't tell his best bud, right?
Black OLmen around the league are growing and many flourishing; but not a single one in GB. Sample is small so it could be a coincidence. Is it a coincidence?
Ever see Sitton in a pic embracing a black guy? How often did Sherrod, Taylor and Walker go hunting, bowling or out to dinner with the OL clique.
Here's another coincidence: Taylor sucked in KC against back-ups, 3 penalties and he's starting over Barclay? Compare that to what happens, when the NAACP starts screaming about a disparate % of white cops; they make a back guy asst. chief. The most racist State is Indiana, appointed one back guy to the supreme court and one to the court of appeals. Of all the options; a Black guy gets inserted in GB's OL. Coincidence? Or is Ted reacting to a letter he received or fears he'll receive from the US attorney about a civil suit from someone complaining about racial slurs in the workplace.
