Re: NFL QB Drew Brees ‘Received Death Threats’ Before Recanting Pro-America Comments
This is exactly what Shaq O'Neil was talking about when he said don't let the media try to stir stuff up. This is creating that "us against the media" mentality that drove the Patriots to a championship. The players have already made peace with each other and now they'll begin circling the wagons against the media.
The site that posted this "article", bigleaguepolitics.com, is another one of those hate mongering ultra right wing sites. I wouldn't past them to have been involved in some of those "death threats" given their history. |

The people writing those letters need to be investigated by the FBI and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Of course this won't happen because the white people aren't allowed to enforce the law against black people. We are supposed to give black people a pass.
The problem isn't just the action itself by Drew. It's the thoughtless reactions of ignorant people to a situation where their only recourse is violence. Again, I'm not bein a racist but this feels like reverse discrimination to me. |

Re: NFL QB Drew Brees ‘Received Death Threats’ Before Recanting Pro-America Comments
I don't think what Drew said was even that bad. I just think his timing was especially horrible because people are being incredibly irrational right now. Then again, I think the world has been broken as **** for a while and we're headed for a complete societal collapse. Too much debt, too much money printing, artificially low interest rates, too much fed insanity in general, too much insanity on different social justice issues, too much right wing bravado acting like every single thing Trump does gold, too much left wing stupidity, acting like everything Trump does is satanic. It began before Trump, it'll probably become worse after Trump. Just the polarization in general, I think we are in horrible shape. Then you throw the coronavirus on top of it and it's like nuking a leper colony

Those tracking the death threats might want to start in Atlanta.
For some reason some of the Dirty Bird Fans don't like the Saints. (ya think) I'm guessing they are loving all this turmoil and would like nothing more than to fan the flames. |

And why shouldn't the Truth about what may have influenced, pressured Brees into reversing his public stance not be reported? |
