Ssriously, I think AP made it a rule in their writing. Something that began back in June or July.

Conversations are supposed to be two way streets. They can take their preaching/lecturing and cram it.

Carroll, you ignorant twit, dialog requires both parties to listen, not just one. What you are preaching coaches and white people do is recognize black nationalism as the norm. Take your cheating @$$ and go home.

It's going to be "the thing" all over the league.

I read what the fool in charge in Green Bay was putting out yesterday and it sounds like with the way he's planning on running the team going forward, he may be trying to trade Aaron Rodgers for Al Sharpton.

I guess if I just want to listen to PEOPLE, as in all people,or intelligent people, or moral people:

Then I’m a racist, just like with saying ALL lives matter.

I get it now listen to black people, black lives matter, but this isn’t racism because all white people are inherently bad. OK.

Isn’t Pete Caroll white? Why would I listen to him?

To appease blm the press has decided to capitalize the term black to give it special emphasis, butt leave white lower case to punish us for making black people commit crimes and go to jail for so long... or something.

“You can’t make me” and “I dindunuffin” are two of the big ones. Also, “some dudes” is a top contender. If we could get “some dudes” off the streets, the crime rate would drop to zero. “I didn’t rob a convenience store, I was just out walking and got a ride with ‘some dudes’ who did it.” “Aspiring rapper” who was “getting his life back together” and just “out on the street preaching the word of Jesus” ...

Anyone with any experience working in the judicial system will roll his eyes at Pete Carroll. His super-rich players are at least as likely to commit crimes as the poorest hoodrats.

Black people do not hold a monopoly on the effects racism and hatred. These are attributes that all people of all colors and creeds have experienced in some form or fashion... Whether your ancestors are white, black, yellow, red or Asian... You or your historical ancestors have likely experienced racism and hatred in some form.

PETE CARROL’S comments demonstrate that PETE CARROLL is speaking from his station of ignorance. He assumes this because of his own ignorance can only mean everyone else is ignorant.

Becoming woke is like when children realize that their parents are not as stupid as they always thought.

Don’t assume that your lack of racial understanding should be projected on me. You know. The only white boy growing up in an all black school. I fully understand the difficulty of being a minority.

Those under 40 have no better ‘will’ than their parents who have spent decades in the system.....it's generational thinking and that has not changed as we see today. The educational systems just reinforce what is already hammered at home.....Further Yelling in the streets is not ‘doing’ the hard work of utilizing the programs of helps etc. they've been afforded for decades.

As for reparations....only if the Demorats gain power will that even come close to happening. American citizens are not going to pay for black citizens who have never been slaves....that's not going to fly at all.
