Houston Texans owner Bob McNair said this about players kneeling: "We can't have the inmates running the prison"
- Page 1 of 1
Like someone on reddit said: In the past month, rich white people have called NFL players inmates and Sons of bitches.
Deandre Hopkins did not show up to practice today (their coach said it was a personal leave request but we know the deal). That comment by McNair got me so fucking heated. I truly hope texans players do not show up to the game.

By DY_nasty Go To Posteveryone will be there loli know lol.
shit man, i never liked kap as our qb but the guy deserves a job dammit!
Doug Gottlieb (didn't know he was still a thing) weighs in:
DeAndre Hopkins obviously—I’m just gonna be blunt—he’s not smart enough to understand the nuance of what he’s saying.Guys, there's real nuance to equating your predominantly black player base with prison inmates.
Kneeling and everything else aside, Kaep deserves a shot. Not an instant job with no trying out. (To the OP. Sorry for getting off track)
That's a pretty gross quote. Don't know what these people are people thinking when they say shit like that
By Method Go To Posti know lol.Wasn't a fan of Kap either, but there is no reason he shouldn't be playing. Stopped watching football since he hasn't been hired and don't wear any of my 49ers shirts either. Somebody hires him and they stop this bullshit kneeling drama, just let the players kneel and stop treating them like shit and I'll be back.

The NFL is just rotten to the core. Filled with vile people. No one should support this organization anymore.
By Method Go To Postmy boy draymond made this post on instagram:
Good post.
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostDoug Gottlieb just here to provide the white man’s perspective is allI dunno what happened to Doug. I watched his show with Allie LaForce on CBS Sports Network and I never thought of him as one of the oppressed white guys ready to lash out a people that weren't different.
Stop fucking watching football. Everyone in football has proven to be a gigantic piece of shit. They’ve shown time and time again black players aint shit to them
i stopped for good after the luke concussion last year. that was way too hard to watch
but this is just fukkery i can observe from afar. i am shocked that nfl team owners give no fucks about how they sound lol

By DY_nasty Go To Posti stopped for good after the luke concussion last year. that was way too hard to watchThese are people that see all the issues regarding concussions and injuries in their sport and still wanted to make players play two more games a year. Optics mean nothing (because their fans don't care anyway).

They can keep saying racist things because they're all Trump boosters and figure most of their dumb fans are, too. The amount of people that said things like "Keep politics out of football" after all the anthem protests said it all and gave them all the cover they needed.
Texans fan here.
Such a tone deaf comment to make considering the reason they were having the meeting. Shows just how out touch some of these owners are.
Wouldn't even be mad if some players don't show up sunday.

These players wouldn’t even kneel in support of their own kind, they either don’t care or don’t want to risk losing their job which can be taken from them at any moment
There’s absolutely no way anyone would skip a game in protest

'You're taking it out of context. What I meant was...'
By butt Go To Post'You're taking it out of context. What I meant was…'Funny thing is, out of context the saying is fine, lol
In the context of a meeting to discuss the protesting of the players about inequality and unfair treatment of minorities, it's .... it's.... whew!
Might be a good time to retire and focus on your health Bob.
By 2002whitegt Go To PostFunny thing is, out of context the saying is fine, lolI know. I was being a sarcastic ass.

By butt Go To PostI know. I was being a sarcastic ass.no worries I got it, it's just that I can't believe he would just blurt that out.
on some Texans forums some guys are even defending the comments.
Yea, it's funny how we accept ignorance of the law being unacceptable when you commit a crime, but somehow ignorance of social reality is just an oopsie.

This doesn't shock me at all. NFL players have always been treated like cattle. The words match the behavior.
Disgusting quote. Saw this earlier at work. Brown roasted mcnair and for good reason. Just trash, but they all think like this. All of em.
By The Kree Go To PostThis doesn't shock me at all. NFL players have always been treated like cattle. The words match the behavior.what's crazy about all of this, the past few years of it, is that somehow instead of responding and galvanizing - the NFLPA only gets more soft and complacent
By RobNBanks Go To PostStop fucking watching football. Everyone in football has proven to be a gigantic piece of shit. They’ve shown time and time again black players aint shit to themConcussion/CTE debacle.
Black outs.
Ownership myopia.
Teams just straight up shitting on long time fans by moving.
DV, rapist and child abuse nonsense.
Cheating without real consequences and then arbitrary ones later for whatever.
Shit tons more injuries, thanks Thurs games.
And who can forget that totally out of touch ban on TD celebrations.
NFL, smfh.
By DY_nasty Go To Postwhat's crazy about all of this, the past few years of it, is that somehow instead of responding and galvanizing - the NFLPA only gets more soft and complacentThat I don't get. The league is 70% black, so you'd think it would be trivial for the players association to take a stronger stand in this context at least.
Money, I guess. Shit is depressing from every angle.
