Just not as much as privilege ruins itLook, the old idea that "sports builds character" is now complete nonsense. I'm not sure it was ever anything more, to be honest.

Interesting to see Polk ranked 37 and Wallace
Im pretty sure that’s how the draft had unfolded to that point. It’s not a ranking but a summary.…and Wallace 68, right around where the Patriots took them.
Once again I will be following up with the league to see if there is any punishment for this incident or are we going to have to wait for 2 years like in the Rice case where the league patiently has waited for "justice to run its course". This is unlike the Pats when Peppers was instantly suspended and after justice ran its course, was found innocent of the charge.
Can anyone find out WHY exactly it's taking so long for the Rice case to be adjudicated. It seems pretty cut and dried. They raced at high speeds. They caused an accident that cause nearly killed people. And then they ran away like cowards without ANY regard for the people they hurt. THAT shouldn't take 2 years to get settled. Anyone else curious, or is it just me?
As for the Bell situation. When he was drafted he wasn't anything like what I was looking for as a TE. The ONLY value I could see would be if they turned into a FB. He physical attributes seem perfect for that position. If he could be turned into a tough blocker he could be a great threat as a receiver when called upon. Sorta like the SF guy.\
Josh knows how to use a FB as he's done in some years. That's the only way I see him making the roster. Be a ST's ace who can play FB when the situation demands it.
He meant the he looks extremely black and menacing, so he must be guilty. Gerry Callahan liked his comment.What do you mean the mugshot fits?

Younger, I was in the ‘win at all cost’ camp. As a 50+, winning isn’t worth destroying a young girl’s face.
There’ll always be the ‘there are no teams full of boy scouts’ fans on here. The list of baddies that passed through NE. But, if there is a player 85% as good on the field who is a regular guy who can stay clean, I’d prefer him.
I’m no macho man, but it doesn’t sound that tough to me to be a huge athlete who pounds on women.

Its actually killing me to see what the yellow is. Milton is literally the only one with yellow
I saw that I don’t believe that is the color reason.The yellow for Joe Milton is his ability to throw the football 100 yards
That is right. Vrabel traded him and no GM offered much of a return. There is something there.I saw that I don’t believe that is the color reason.
Guess we may never know.
I guess you'll have to define "privilege," which another word, like "racism" which has been so abused by ideologues as to have become entirely meaningless.I dunno about that. Sports do build character. Just not as much as privilege ruins it
