My gut tells me that McVay's hands are clean.

I remember my daughter coming home from school, in trouble because she passed a note in class. Not only with the teacher but with one of the girls who was the subject of the note. My wife sat them all down (our 3 kids, all girls) and told them don't write something down you don't want the whole class (or school) to know. Simple stuff. Learned by a 4th, 5th and 6th grader, I might add. With all the e-mail crap that has gone on over the last couple of decades, you'd think a grown assed man, who obviously has some intelligence, would not be so stupid. There may be reasons for thinking the way he does....one being a bigoted upbringing....but there's no reason to be that stupid.

I don't like blacks? Lemme write that down!!!
I believe women should work in the kitchen during the day and the bedroom at night. Lemme write that down!!!
I don't like gays? Lemme write that down!!!
Better yet, let me put all that on the internet!!! That sounds like a swell idea!!!

Gruden's career with anything NFL related is over. No one's gonna touch him with a hundred foot pole. I know he's not the only one who has that mindset. But apparently he's the only one who's stupid enough to put it in writing. I gotta think it was arrogance on his part. Maybe he thought he was untouchable and didn't expect repercussions? If so, that would be extremely arrogant.

The term has now been changed to persona non Gruden.

/zn/ wrote:The real point was that the "10 years" thing is meaningless. 10 years ago, 2012, is not 1959. What is the difference between 2012 and 2021 when it comes to this? Is 2021 the enlightened age where racism, homophobia, and sexism have been eradicated? While 2012 is the dark ages when those things were far more common?

If it;s a hellava lot then it;s a hellava lot now too. Which may be the case.

Either way I think the people saying "who could survive a search of their 2012 emails" are just inadvertantly pointing fingers at themselves.

And no it was not everyone. Not everyone would have to worry about that now and not everyone would have to worry about that in 2012.

Are you implying people can't change? Yes, it was 10 years ago and maybe he's a changed man. I don't know him and neither do you. Douse that torch with water, son, and take a chill pill.

If you've been reading zn's posts as long as I have, you'd know that, in his case, that's pretty much the case. :lol2:
