From roughly 1530 to 1780, thousands of White Europeans were captured and enslaved in North Africa. “But from 1500 to 1650, when trans-Atlantic slaving was still in its infancy, more white Christian slaves were probably taken to Barbary than black African slaves to the Americas, according to Robert Davis, Professor of history at Ohio State University.” I know the truth often hurts your feelings, resulting in late night pouty outbursts and members virtually rubbing your back asking if you’re okay— but slip away from discussions regarding historical accuracy or facts; they clearly aren’t your forte. |

Ok. Read eDave’s post then read mine for context. I didn't bring up slavery- he did. Somehow he tied what happened to Gruden as justification what occurred 150+ years ago, and further stated that black people never enslaved white people-- which of course is wrong.

Has everyone forgotten what MLK said in regards to his "dream" and how "one days his children will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character". All we do in 2021 is judge people off their skin color in regards to what comes out of their mouth. The other point to this is simply that again its the hypocrisy of this entire situation.. It happened to all skin colors in the history of the world, yet white people of today are still being ridiculed for things they had no control over because they weren't even born yet. It's ridiculous. All we can do is remedy the passed, learn from it, and move forward. Calling a young 22 year old white man privileged the moment you see his skin color is bull shit because you have absolutely no idea what he has seen or been through in the last 22 years of his life, yet that is what we do in today's society.. |

None of it adds up. He's not gonna bail on a winning season and ruin his career over something that could fade away. And these high priced lawyers aren't stupid enough to forget to redact something.
The redskins ruined Jay gruden by leaking stories about him. Do the grudens know something? Because the Skins seem hell bent on ruining them and grudens abrupt exit makes you wonder if there's something way deeper going on here. |

So the ace in the hole was a morals clause for grudens conduct that predates his employment? It is most definitely strange to not at least discuss settlement before resignation. It sounds like the raiders were caught completely off guard.

Davis holds a tremendous amount of respect for Gruden. He tried for 7 years to bring him back to the Raiders. If it were up to him he would most likely still have a job. |
