Drew Brees-Desean Jackson

hitta · 07-09-2020, 02:46 AM

It's sickening after how Brees got treated for essentially saying he thought people should stand for the flag(which is a personal opinion, and has nothing to do with race at all) and DeSean Jackson posts something far worse and nobody even gives a ****. Then to top it off, the guy that wouldn't accept Brees apology and said horrible stuff about Brees, Stephen Jackson, comes out and tries to defend DeSean Jackson's post. It's hypocritical, it's completely unfair, and the double standard is sickening.

There’s no such thing as black privilege. A black person can get called the N-Word by any other race and it hurts them to the core. A black person can use any disparaging word against any other race and it won’t mean as much because their still looked upon as an N-Word.

Bottom line, are people really comparing Jackson to Brees. Jackson has been a bonehead probably forever. I’d go to war with Brees and trust him with watching my six.

There is black privilege, there is white privilege. There is male privilege and female privilege. Privilege exists in many forms yet it seems that white privilege is the only one being talked about. Everyone just shut up and send me money.

That and Drew Brees is a coward, as us his wife. All he had to say was that is my belief for me, not forcing it on anyone else. Give it a week or two, shut up and don't respond to anyone or anything and it would die.

But because he was petrified to lose his announcer gig after football he tucked himself like a man with breasts...what do they call those?

"I've been getting hit up by everyone asking me about this DeSean Jackson post and I wanted to take some time before I responded because it's a complicated issue and I wanted it to be thoughtful," Edelman said in a social media video. "I wrote down some of my thinking. I've seen DeSean play in his career, make outstanding football plays. We've communicated over social media. I've got nothing but respect for his game. I know he said some ugly things, but I do see an opportunity to have a conversation."

No outrage. Just one of very few Jewish players politely offering his opinion in hopes of enlightening what appears to be a truly bigoted man.

You can call Brees a coward, and there may have some truth to it. The thing about Brees though is I think he's more worried about the team's continuity than anything else. He saw the team fracturing and did whatever was needed to be done to keep it from tearing apart. I think if it was just Brees alone being criticized and he didn't have to worry about keeping the team together, he may have taken a different route. That still doesn't absolve him from backing down from his principles, but it gives a certain complexity to his situation. Judging Brees based on one's own individual perspective is a bit unfair. Brees has a lot of weight on his shoulders, perhaps 10 times more than the typical person that would be in that kind of scenario. Until you've walked in the man's shoes, giving blanket statements about what he did was right or wrong to me is unjust. I'm not saying I agree with what he did, I'm just saying that every situation is different. Brees has always has a team first/city first(cause he considers the city part of the team) perspective, and I think he's the type of person that would fall on the sword for the betterment of the team.
