Or are we about to go on a run?

After hearing Cam on his thoughts about Mr Richardson

Then seeing this in the article on ESPN.com

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/21839807/nfl-first-choice-carolina-panthers-remain-charlotte

 

"Kuechly said the Panthers, who lost Super Bowls after the 2003 and 2015 seasons, want to send Richardson out with a Super Bowl victory."

 

"That would be the best way to send him off,'' Kuechly said. "Everybody wants to win the Super Bowl. It would be very meaningful for him.''

Tight end Greg Olsen said the meeting with Richardson was emotional.

"You felt for him,'' he said. "To see a guy who's worked his whole life to bring this organization to Charlotte and have him sit there and tell you and see it on his face how heartbreaking that is that he's going to give that franchise up to somebody else ... it's hard to see people in those positions. It's human nature. You don't want to see people struggle.''

Whole thing feels weird

 

its not like he has a terminal illness or something. The dude is being forved to sell the team due to sexual and racial allegations. 

 

Either the pc climate is way too damn hostile and rediculous or the players dont take the allegations seriously. Its strange.

I feel like you can still like a person and care for a person without condoning their actions. These players clearly love and respect Big Cat but that doesn't mean they don't take the allegations seriously. People are very complex and for some reason we always like to put them in black and white boxes

You're right, it is strange. It's not like the other outings going on in the media at this time, there isn't an avalanche of "me toos" coming out about him from other employees or team members. As a group, they seem to be standing shoulder to shoulder in support of JR. And these are college educated, wealthy, socially aware people, not just a bunch of mindless neanderthal jocks.

He is not being forced to do anything. By the NFL or anyone but himself. He's choosing to sell.

Forced? He decided to do that himself.

I'm not gonna speculate on the players' feelings about JR, but I certainly agree that most people are shades of gray. The man screwed up but I can see him also inspiring loyalty from the players and coaches.
