Nailed it.

I’m no doctor or professional statistician but suspect mental health problems are gateways to substance abuse, high blood pressure, diabetes, etc...  Basically many of the health issues that plague our society  

 

We know very little about the human brain and it’s functions. Like putting the iPhone in a caveman’s hands.   The play through the injury cliche doesn’t apply in this instance Skip.

Well said, well said. 

And there's no room in this messed up world for talk like Skip's. He has been a professional troll and his job is to fire up the fanbase and create heat. He went to far this time and while I try to hate no one, perhaps we should all just turn our backs and refuse to listen to him -- take away the weapon he wields, an audience.

Not that this is important at all to the discussion but Dak is coming off as a hero and is going to probably be the highest paid players in the nfl in less than 365 days. 

Character matters. He appears to have it. 

DISCLAIMER: this has NOTHING to do with any comparison to a certain former panther player that rhymes with dam mewton. So please don’t go there.

Great post Verge !

I think these shows have a format agreed upon by the producers where one talking head takes one side, and the other taking head takes the other side. So basically one of them had to be against Dak's decision, and the other dope had to be for him. That way they grab the most attention by disagreeing and creating headlines. Like Sharpe probably defended Dak after Skip stopped talking, and that's the prearranged format. They might have even flipped a coin to see who would have to be the bad guy. You can clearly see how uncomfortable Skip is in saying his moronic comments, but he will be fired if he doesn't do as he's told.

Right. Dak will get paid. But he ain't getting THAT paid.

This is a 50 yr old dude who creates burner accounts to hype himself up on Twitter. He’s drowning in it too

I’ve been battling depression for years—like many of you, I'm sure. It’s a daily struggle. 

Here’s a great article by David Roth.
