Bwood

Recommended Posts

I have already stated I do not condone his actions. Frankly I'm disappointed in Bwood for saying these things.

The double standard remains. You said yourself you are not offended by racial slurs. But not everyone is you. People interpret things differently, regardless of race. This very thread is an example of how lenient or how severe the punishment can be depending on which race is insulted.

It's a sensitive issue, but it seems a lot more lop sided depending on the victim.

Yes, everyone interprets things differently, but I'm saying in general... For a non-racist white person, if you call them one of those names, sure it might sting a few seconds, but it doesn't come with all the history and hurt that the stereotypes, slurs, and epithets used towards black people do. It's much easier to shrug that off as a white person, but you're right, everyone interprets things differently. And because I view race as a subjective thing, it means much less to me if someone used a racial insult towards myself.

That being said, the other huge thing that has to be taken into account here, is Bwood had a pretty bad rap sheet on the huddle. So, for him to be the guy that snapped and said that... There's no room for it here. He brought it on himself with his actions and attitudes throughout his time on the Huddle. He didn't do himself any favors with his past behavior.

in a vacuum there is no difference between a white person calling a black person a chocolate milkshake and a black person calling a white person a vanilla milkshake, or a black person calling a white person a honkey pink polar bear or a white person calling a black person a monkey.

however the history of the united states is anything but a vacuum and to pretend one term doesn't carry hundreds of years of brutal connotation to it that the other lacks is ludicrous and feeble-minded.

now back to posting pictures of your faces, be they vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, or fountain drink suicide.

    • Bryce put it in a spot only his guy could get it only for David Moore to drop it. T_T Tremble and Horn both struggled yesterday and that killed me since they're two of my favourite players. Tommy knows he has to come down with this one. Folks were understandably saying that JT would've caught that had he not gotten hurt a few plays earlier. The more I look at this play, the more I think that Bryce made the right decision throwing it out the back of the endzone. He could have tried to laser it in to Thielen, but that safety is lurking awfully close inside. Insuring the field goal here after a 44sec drive to end the half was the right move.
    • Except Bryce was the main reason we were in it 
    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
