OT Seattle playing starters against Raiders

[Russ Smith]

Really weird even the announcers are surprised. They had most of their first team defense in and then Russell Wilson and several offensive starters came out for the first series too.

Very unusual

I think I'll ignore MLK day next year in protest. See if they like it.

Please -- go to work on MLK day. Please.

Unlike most people, I work most holidays so working MLK day wouldn't be a big deal. I'll be working Christmas this year too as I did last year. This will be the first year in a while I have off Thanksgiving only because my days off are Wednesday and Thursday. Just part of the perks of being essential personnel in a job that never takes a day off.

Drives me nuts, we vote in a black president and they still complain.

Yeah this was an entire series both offense and defense and then several starters (not Wilson) in for the 2nd series. Pete Carroll has always been different not sure what he was trying to do but it was interesting.

The Raiders have a chance to be pretty good this year if Carr takes another step forward they could be quite good.

 

[CFLredzoned]

Pete Caroll is sending a message that if you want to be a champion, you can't be afraid to play football. If there's a game to be played or a practice to be practiced, they're going all out. If somebody gets injured, so be it. The team is going to be tougher when it matters. Every time you hear somebody talk about Seahawks training camp this year, they say it's the most physical TC they've ever seen. We'll see if the Cardinals can out finesse them in the playoffs, because that's what it's going to have to be.

I am pretty confident you have always ignored it.

 

[jf-08]

Keep this discussion about football....

 

[Harry]

I wish the Cards had run the first team offense for a couple of series. The need to get more fluid. Perhaps they can do it on the practice field, but that's rare.

Really? And how did you come to this conclusion.

How dast you!

Seriously? This is in bad taste.

I can't believe people actually think this way.

I laughed for a few minutes and then I realized, he was actually serious. But he has a point. We abolished slavery, gave them the right to vote, elected one of them to the highest office in the land and even after all that, they still want milk with their cookies? <In before the thread is moved to P&R.>

 

[NJCardFan]

you are anti black people

Really? News to me. Oh, BTW, my daughter is black genius. That's how anti-black people I am.

Let me ask you this. You vociferously rail against BLM and bitch and moan about why they can't protest peacefully. Then, a black man protests peacefully and you bitch and complain about that too. Would you rather they just shut their traps and never say anything at all because I'm not sure what other options there are.

And the MLK thing... do you think your daughter would want you to boycott MLK day in any way shape or form? Would you even let her hear that, even if it was a joke?

And the MLK thing... man, for anyone to make that comment is just a massive head-scratcher to me, but an even bigger one for someone who has a black child.

It depends on the protest. BLM riots, burns down businesses, and calls for the death of cops. I guess you're OK with that? As for Kaepernick, he's disrespecting the fighting men and women who fought and died for his right to be an a-hole then he disrespects cops by wearing socks with pigs wearing police hats. You think I should be OK with that when he's essentially disrespecting me personally? The Constitution grants you the right to PEACEABLY assemble(which BLM couldn't do if they tried). If you have a legitimate beef then there are ways to go about getting your point across and the first would by to petition the government for a redress of grievances, not burn down stores and cars and riot or call cops pigs.

The MLK comment was to make a point meaning how would Kaepernick like it if I chose not to recognize MLK Day? Shame some of you on here are too obtuse to see my point. Perhaps it's because you guys agree with BLM and Kaepernick.
