The NFL's morals are as follows:RustyTrubisky wrote:which is, cmon, complete bullshit. he's done a ton of stuff that barely gets any attention at all.wab wrote: And that his protest was more about drawing attention to him than the actual issue at hand.
like, do you really believe, even though he's completely out of the spotlight, that he gave 25k to a food bank in north minneapolis to draw attention to himself?

the nfl doesnt want to deal with a outwardly progressive football player at qb, because the nfl's morals are as shady as they come. so it's in their interest to leak that he's "not liked in the locker room", which despite countless players coming out and saying kaep's their boy, seems to persist.
If you can win games, regardless of how big of turd/dipshit/douchebag you are, you get a job, unless it costs us money with sponsors.
So, Crappershit either falls in the following:
Can't win games - and seriously, he looked like henry burris missing an arm against the bears last year.
Or, too big of turd/dipshit/douchebag that sponsors don't want to touch.
I am going for option #1 as I think he was a flash in the pan QB that teams figured out exactly what to take away to make him ineffective. That on top of the other baggage just make him not worth it.
I think he would have been cut at the end of the preseason last season, except he started the kneeling protest movement so the team couldn't cut him for fear of repercussions.
Remember the colts kicker that was so funny/outlandish with his comments (Vanderjackt). It was all great, until he started missing kicks, and then his ass was cut. He got one more attempt and didn't cut it with the cowboys either.
