"Hate the sin, love the sinner."

Sounds to me like Smitty is leaving out the second part because it makes him uncomfortable. His Lord and Savior didn't think he was too good to associate with prostitutes, tax collectors, thieves, lepers, etc. Lots of Christians choose to intentionally overlook that point.

Please do not bring religion and Christianity into this. Especially when you know nothing of it. Don't even respond to me.

But to Rhodes. The fact that he's gay is his choice. Theres nothing wrong With our nfl players if they aren't comfortable with that. Media makes out people like me to be a bad person just bc I don't believe in it and they do.

Do I go throwing rocks and taking pitchforks to gay people? No of course not. But do I want to be associated ad have my family kids brothers little children around that lifestyle? No sir I do not. Just the same way that i don't want my family around a bunch of drunks or druggies. I don't think I'm any better than these people. Just how I feel. And sounds like most of the Nfl dosent wanna be associated with him. Which is not their problem or fault.

The media doesn't make you out to be a bad person, you do.

do you believe these disgusting things because of religion and christianity? if so then your first statement is nothing more than a cowardly attempt to keep your primary cause from looking as bad as you do right now. if not, then you have even less of an excuse for having such disgusting opinions because at least religious people are usually born into power structures that deterministically shape their paradigms.

either way... gross.

not sure why smith's view, if it is true, is disappointing.

until teams/nfl makes accomodations for both sides for locker room etiquette, it would be very uncomfortable for someone who isn't gay to undress in front of someone who is.

Maybe Smith and other players should quit being homophobic and get over it.

So he's gay, big deal. It's not gonna rub off on you.

No I don't. I don't think I'm perfect and I'm not the best person ever. But I am a good hearted nice person who generally cares for people. To say I'm a homophobe or close minded bc I don't believe in it is not right. It's like me trying to push religion or same sex marriage down their throats.

You're the opposite of a good hearted person. You're a terrible human being.

once you realize that it's not a choice. that they are born that way, just like how we are born straight. you will begin to realize that the rest of what you just said is very, very dumb.

Steve Smith hasn't done it lately that I can remember, but he would use to yell F A G G O T at opposing corners all the time when he was younger.

Yes, you've said this two times already. A lot of people use that word in vain, including Kobe Bryant.

If they had problems with gay guys looking at them, they should also have problems with straight guys looking at them.

Ok guy. Really don't care what you think. If I'm gross bc I don't believe in it then fine so be it. It's not like I'm a hateful person to gay people. I'm friendly and nice. But I don't accept that lifestyle. Sorry. This is exactly what I mean when proper act like I'm the bad guy bc I don't accept your forced thought on how u think it should be.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
