Re: Malcolm Jenkins
Well, depending on how far you want to go down the rabbit hole, there are many variables to consider about the impact. Think about this...In a way you can compare it to the drafting of Reggie Bush.
I’ve always felt the Saints don’t win the Super Bowl without him...and it’s not because of his talent. Coming from a southern CA school, Heisman, dating a Kardashian etc. all gave the national media a reason to pay attention and pull for the Saints. He was impactful because of the social times. Now think about that angel from Signing Jenkins. Could his signing not be looked at the same way ? Just a thought here because you wanted a lively debate. |
You think you know, but you don’t know...and you never will! Coach Jim Mora

Re: Malcolm Jenkins
MJ is finally getting into a rhythm and playing faster. Kwon alexander came in about the time the whole defense took it to the next level. When he makes a good play I'm excited but the rest of the time he is a disappointment to me for both his poor play and disrespecting Drew like he did.
Edit: I have a tendency to hold a grudge against douche bags! |

If you cannot get over petty then the problem is yours, not there's. Think on that a bit. |

If he doesn't care why should you? Maybe because you are a screaming racist yourself? How dare those darkies dis a white man? Is that it? If not explain why it is so important to you. |

Malcolm was just thrown back because he couldn’t understand why a guy he considered a brother and a friend would make insensitive comments regarding the topic. And Drew didn’t have to make any statements or apologies. But he did because at that moment Drew realized that people like Jenkins were speaking out for the injustices of HUMAN beings.
The one thing I can’t understand is why others can’t come around like Drew. Come on guys, we’re talking about human beings here and not some dead animal on side of the road. |
