In the wake of the murder of his former player, defensive end Will Smith, this weekend, New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton issued a challenge to Black Lives Matter, to stand-up and protest black-on-black violence, the same way they protest white-on-black violence.
Actually, hes not. That would be helpful. Instead, hes calling for a gun ban.
In a USA Today Sports article, Payton let fly:

Hmmmm, concussions are prevalent in the NFL so we should ban football.
I'm sure ESPN will come out against the 2nd, or come out against it *again*. Thanks rktman.
Uh, isn’t Louisiana the “Sportsmens Paradise”? I guess that’s just shrimp nets, crawfish traps and fishin’ poles. Hope he doesn’t alienate too many Saints fans.
Seems he doesn’t blame Cardell Hayes. No mention of him.
I know several gun owners that don’t kill others. Maybe it’s the culture Cardell Hayes was raised in?
NFL seems to be going out of its way to run away fans.
Waiting with baited breath for another bob costa rant in usa today. Well, maybe not so much.
Interesting the Coach is coming out against a traditional male interest and hobby. Hate to say it but he is resembles a vernacular phase for a cat.
At the last super bowl the half time show was all about gay crap and black lives matter or some such whinny black complaint. I do not recall hearing the coach come out and say that the half time show was an inappropriate inclusion of a political theme in a sporting event.
Increasingly every aspect of life seems to have a political aspect, or at least the left is attempting to make it so.
Is this the advocate of world peace that let his coaches put bounties on opposing players?
Interesting number there in your name ...
Are you an Enfield fan?
There, fixed it for you!
Regards,
Thanks. Sometimes I need corrected. At least that’s what mrs. rktman says.
White on black violence? That’s like rabbit on coyote violence.
The stupid runs industrial strength strong in sports, it would appear.
The coach forgets that his wins are there because his felons are better jocks than the opponent felons.
Sometimes we say things out of being a fascist elitist scum. So the NFL says men get to go in women’s restrooms, they hire the head of the ATF, they don’t allow gun manufacturer ads during the super bowl, and every once in a while they come out and say I don’t need my civil rights. How long are we going to keep supporting these fascist elitist scum?
And players that intentionally head hunt.
Sean Peyton...how many guns do you keep at home for self defense? Your emotional outburst felt good but helps the anti-gun lobby. Obama and Hillary are loving you today and might refer to you in a speech
I’m thinking this comment is just an over reaction to the murder of his friend/player. Sean Peyton is from Texas and works in Louisiana. It’s really hard to believe he’s sincerely a anti-gun Nazi.
It’s not a gun problem, it’s a culture problem.
And helmets are responsible for football injuries. We need to ban them, too.
Perhaps we should also start listening more to those who say football should be eliminated due to its inherent violent nature.
Let's all think of the many ways we can make every American safer, like getting rid of cars permitting only pedestrian traffic. Too many killed on our highways.
Getting rid of mind altering substances that cause people do react violently and commit crimes they might not otherwise commit.
Knives, forks and spoons should probably be eliminated, because there are people who turn these very items into weapons.
Oh so many items and practices we must rid our society of.
