Regarding DeMaurice Smith. "Dumboriss Smith has lips the size of michellin tires," Jon Gruden wrote, according to the report.

Interesting the timing of this coming out. Apparently you need unanimous vote to remain NFLPA leader person and he got 7-7. It's been reported he might be ousted or replaced. Suddenly, there's a report trying to make Smith a victim over an email about 10+ years go. Convenient, wrong, but convenient.

UPDATE: Here we go, it's not convenient at all on the timing. "WFT workplace-misconduct investigation uncovered a 2011 email from Jon Gruden in which he described NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith with a racist trope, reports @WSJ."

He wouldn't be in trouble if he was winning.

I was trying to figure out why then ESPN announcer Jon Gruden was emailing the then Redskins President during the NFL lockout at all... especially since Gruden's brother Jay was not yet Redskins head coach.

But then I realized Jon and Bruce were on the Raiders together, and then the Buccaneers. So they probably knew each other very well.

Andrew Brandt @AndrewBrandt If I have this right: out of a voluminous email trove in the Washington Football Club investigation, there's a racist email from a coach of another club, from ten years ago, about someone whose future is being voted that day?
Someone in the NFL really wanted him to keep his job.

Racial comments in email? Keeps job.
Homophobic comments in email? Out of work.


I don't condone either, nor support neither.

Gruden resigns amidst more emails coming to light including:
[list]
  • the emergence of women in the NFL as officials and called for the dismissal of players protesting the playing of the national anthem.
  • He also said in an email that the Rams shouldn’t have been been pressured into drafting “queers” when the team took Michael Sam, who was the first openly gay player drafted.
  • Gruden referred to Biden in 2012 when he was vice president as a “nervous clueless pussy” during an email exchange with former Washington executive Bruce Allen.
  • [*]He also called Roger Goodell a “clueless anti football pussy.”[/list]

    Zero2Cool (4h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

    beast (5h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast
    beast (5h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

    Zero2Cool (5h) : I could be wrong there though
    Zero2Cool (5h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

    Zero2Cool (7h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it
    beast (7h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
    beast (7h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
    Mucky Tundra (19h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
    beast (21h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

    Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
    Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy
    Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is
    Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol
    beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

    Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
    Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
    Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
    Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
    Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
    Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
