When will Bob learn............ bah bye dude.

RG3 Liked A Post On Instagram That Calls Snyder a “sorry ass owner” Who “couldn’t put a winning coaching staff together” And Used Him To “make a profit”

Then he apologized for an intern doing so...

But headlines are headlines

A legend in his own mind.

This is what bothers me most about the fallout. I am sure Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton will be involved.

He came into the league having recovered from one injury, he gets another major blow with the other knee, and then the ankle... 3 strikes and you're out. It's simply a good football decision and the tape does not lie. Neither Kirk nor Colt have the raw talent of RGIII - no one argues that - but they have enough football acumen to disguise the O-line weaknesses (including lack of blocking RBs and TEs) and manage the team.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT RACE!! If you see it that way, please take a hard look in the mirror before pointing fingers.

Oh yes, if there were any place on the planet in 2015 that is overwhelmed by rampant racism it is professional sports.......

Can't wait to see how Jesse Jackson and Mr. Sharpton explain this one.........

At least on subject, I believe that RGIII didn't physically "like" the photo, it was an intern. Why an intern has control and thinks he has the latitude to like something against his boss' team, that is a bigger issue and one that goes back to RGIII.

Speaking of getting "butt hurt"...

Seriously, I listened to that radio segment this morning with J Reid and Chris Paul. Pretty much every caller, not to mention the hosts and Mike Jones from the WaPost were unanimous that this was a performance issue. The discussion was just acknowledging that some fans in DC were excited about RGIII in part because of his race, much like Doug Williams back in the day.

Heard that too. But if they felt like it wasn't a race issue, why even bring it up at all? I believe it was Reid who said that people like to "stick with and root for their races", or something very similar. Odd phrasing.

I think they brought it up for discussion because people really do feel that way. There are actually fans who suspect Griffin isn't getting a fair shot because he's "the black QB". Seemed like the point of the conversation wasn't to legitimize that, but to talk about why its clearly not true.

Anyway, nothing I felt I needed to hear. Just wanted to point out that it wasn't as bad a conversation as it might sound.

Yes, it wasn't as bad as it sounded. But there were a handful of callers throughout the day who hinted at it. One guy outright said they did the same thing to McNabb and Campbell before him. Completely ignoring the fact that Campbell replaced Brunell, and McNabb was the one who was brought in to replace Campbell.

Definitely. That was kind of the point of the discussion wasn't it? Line some of those people up and shoot them down.

The radio guys were NOT endorsing this view, I know. They were simply saying that there is a "feeling" by some that the benching was a racial thing.

But HEY.............race baiting gets good ratings, right?
