the qb should figure out a convincing back soft tissue injury that would allow him to sit out this season with a fig leaf of impunity. better than risk neck down paralysis or permanent disabling brain injury just for a political difference of perspective.

I agree, and I suspect more and more whites will see that he prudent thing to do is to get out. If you can't trust your own teammates to watch your back, exit right and "do not collect $200!"

I clicked on this to say the same thing. Big talk on FR. You either cut em off or you support kneeling. I don’t see the grey area.

This particular episode(s) does not promote the NFL, it undermines it. Please see post #16.

YouTube has an automated processing system called ContentID that can identify content in YouTube videos, even still images. If the content belongs to someone it can identify, it will notify the content owner - in this case, if it detects an NFL video or a still of an NFL video, it will notify the NFL’s contact person. This includes the number of views of the video to date.

All the NFL has to do is add that to their “online views” stats and use that for advertising sales numbers.

Do you think the NFL is beneath just making up numbers? They don’t need to actually count anything—just say they did.

Ad buyers do actually demand to see the sources for their numbers and at least spot check them.

In this case, all the NFL has to do to verify these numbers is link the ad buyer to the video and point to the number of views. Why give them easily verifiable viewer numbers they can use to make money?

http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/10/02/raiders-quarterback-derek-carr-has-a-spinal-fracture-will-miss-2-6-weeks/ You don't have to follow the link. He already found the injury, and he doesn't even have to fake it.

Who gives a single, solitary Flying F#ck? Haven’t sat through three consecutive downs, for any football game since I was 14. That’s a half century, now, and the clock is still ticking.

The Cleveland Browns bring up a possibility of another aspect of the situation. The black narcissistic racists who are focused on ways to insult the fans and make a spectacle of themselves are not 100% focused on preparing for the game. The Cleveland team has gotten worse every game. There, the black coach finally had to replace the young black QB he favored. The white QB came in and actually scored a TD.

Intentional or not, and this seems to exist even with some coaches, those blacks who are out of control have a real disdain for white people. It's being reinforced when these protests are enabled.

JMHO

You’re right about that. Just planting that seed has a detrimental effect.

Maybe this will inspire an entirely new branch of economics theory.

“Race to the bottom” economics, in which race, not demand, determines supply, cooperation between teams, and competition between teams.

Due to sabotage, danger of injury, and lack of teamwork, white players will be replaced by black players. Over time, compositions of entire teams will change until they become 100% black. Fan demographics will undergo an analogous shift. The market will re-align around race (and SJW issues) instead of ability and interracial cooperation.

agree...the only conspiracy here is to say the center was pissed at Carr and snapped the ball before he should’e on the final sack but that would mean the center was the only guy in on it...

players make a lot of money- if this were true it would kill their career...

Would be next to impossible to say for certain the line allowed those sacks.

I am significantly cutting back on my NFL viewing this year so I didn't see this game live. That said, I have to agree with you. This video doesn't show anything to support the claim that the Raiders O line purposely allowed these sacks. Even the allegation is just based on hearsay.

I am not saying they did or didn't. They whole thing definitely warrants an investigation. I am only saying the video doesn't prove anything.

Not if the owners care more about not pissing off black people. Plus, allowing it just once in a while puts the QB on notice, without destroying team stats.

A few short years ago, nearly 100% of people who heard this theory would have dismissed it out of hand. Now it gets repeated over and over, no matter how shaky the evidence.

The relationship between the league and its customers has changed.
