Yeah........this is a fairly ignorant comment. Someone always has to turn something simple into a race problem. Guess you think Al Sharpton is a good role model too.

1. Jackson has all the skills.
2. He's a diva, me first type of individual.
3. Chip doesn't like him.
4. He was scheduled to make $10 million+.
5. His associations with less than upstanding, accused criminals is fact.
6. Someone will pay him to play on their team.
7. The comparisons to Hernandez are ridiculous.
8. Saying the Eagles cut him and kept a racist are ridiculous.

He also has a gang affiliation that the Eagles didn't want near the team. Oakland will sign him where he can live the thug life

Only a fool would think race has nothing to do with any of these decisions. It still plays a big part on all levels. Idk about you but I fear rich racist white men more than alleged gang members..

You think they let him go because they didn't like his race?

"Riley Cooper said the n-word, then they gave him a 5-year deal. DeSean has alleged gang ties and gets cut"

I'm talking about the excuses that's being put out..Like alleged gang ties is a reason to cut someone when the coach made his name recruiting kids with alleged gang ties.It's wrong for a team to use the media to try and destroy his value because he wouldn't take a pay cut.The Eagles are a use em and throw em away organization. I just find it stupid when people say race has no ties to it...Cooper was at a concert with friends who heard him use that word so that means they condone it...so how can you dissect one players friends and background and not the other? Did NJ.com look into Cooper..No...Because alleged gang ties are more dangerous than a public figure whose a known racist.
