MSN ^ | 10/11 | Marcus Mosher

SNIP

On Monday night, Jon Gruden informed the team that he will resign as the team’s head coach after a New York Times piece was written in regards to emails he sent back in 2011.

The piece showed a number of concerning emails with vulgar criticism directed at Roger Goddell, President Barack Obama and more. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Raiders received word of these emails on Friday but did not take action over the weekend.

Instead, Gruden coached on Sunday against the Bears in what was his final game as the coach for the Raiders. The news was first reported by NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero via his Twitter account.

Goodell is a football hating pussy, who they H cares if a player is a homo? The head of the NFLPA does have massive lips, and I guess it is illegal to look at topless women. Not bad to drool over bottomless males though.

I will go further with the protests, fire anyone that comes out onto the field to protest. No female referees or coaches, and get the sideline females out of the business.

Good thing I will not get punished by forfeiture of my coaching job from the Raiders.

He never criticized Obama.

How can you be so sure? I’ll bet he did. I’ll bet he called him (Zero) a Coke sniffing fag, shacking up with a tranny and claiming ownership of two welps that aren’t even his - all true but you just can’t say things like this in polite society

He should have stayed an announcer. Now he won’t be able to get an announcer job. He had a $100 million contract. Knowing the Raiders, they will make him pay back part of the sighing bonus.

They say he insulted gays and minorities and Goodell and was apparently a big meanie.

No surprise since the story broke, especialy the way the Raiders quit on him yesterday against the Bears.

Radio Source from NY says Owner Davis couldn’t accept Gruden’s criticism of Biden.

He called Biden “clueless.”

Yes, but at the time Gruden was not an NFL coach. So why were his emails discoverable? He sent them to an NFL employee?

Yes, he sent these emails to the owner of the WFC. Dan Snyder I think? Anyway, his emails were part of the investigation apparently.

No, they have recent stuff, too.

They have Gruden criticizing Biden, which outraged Davis.

If he emailed Dan Synder he deserves to be fired.

Well at least the Lions aren’t the most dysfunctional NFL franchise now.

Likely a friend of Gruden. He finally figured out he can make more $$$ being an announcer! Well played old boy!

Yeah, Gruden can't even do video games at this point. He is cooked as far as doing anything in NCAA or NFL.

I would guess he gets to keep $30+ million of his money. He is in his 4th year. He will be fine. He can go fishing with Jimmy Johnson now.

Western countries fought the Nazis to defeat the Police State? Because we didn’t want that, right?

Now we have ... the same Police State we supposedly fought against in WWII

Jon gave the greatest gift one pro football coach ever gave another football coach: He took Urban Meyer off the front page, and out of the role of most despicable coach.
