These trainings aren’t pointless. I did 20 in the navy and we had 10 or so similar trainings every year across various topics (the same thing every year for 20 years is excessive, but these one time trainings aren’t too much).
 

You never know how some people are raised or the environment they learned from, something that’s common sense to most might not be to someone and you don’t want that someone making decisions that might be lacking in what most would think is obvious, like you can’t exclude someone based on race, gender, etc.  So these trainings are important for establishing a baseline of what’s expected and setting a minimum standard for how things are expected to be done. 
 

What’s stupid is thinking this minor oversight on a brand new requirement is some big deal. It’s a nothing burger, they were informed months ago and subsequently forgot about it among the million other things they have to consider in owning a team among other business responsibilities.  They’ll learn from it and move on. 

Doing 20 in the Navy should have taught you that these trainings don’t really do much for how people treat others.

Might not change 90 out of 100 people but I guarantee it makes a few people stop and think about how they treat people. And that makes it worth it.

Is there a team ownership that does not have nepotism?

It's wild how within a week sports takes can go from "this guy is a quitter for not blowing out his knee for my entertainment" to "nepotism never hurt anybody". American values 😂

But she is, so respectfully, this post is moot. I saw you mention skin color in another post. Your post was about Wilks wasn’t it lol. 

I’m an advocate for Wilks earning the HC position regardless of his skin color so not sure what you’re getting at.

 

I am generally not a fan of people being handed or stripped of opportunities simply based on the color of their skin. Character and resume should be the standard. If that makes me racist then call me whatever you like.

Nah, I don’t think that. You’re good.

I just hope the panthers aren’t punished severely for this simple screw up

You notice that your colleague Mary is wearing a well fitting pair of denim pants. Which of the following statements are an appropriate response? (Mark all that apply.)

A.) "Show me how you wiggle to get those jeans up."

B.) "I bet you lay down on your bed to fit in those jeans."

C.) "Did you step into those jeans or did you have to jump into them?"

D.) None of the above

At first I read this as, your colleague “Marty”

So you think she’d secure that position if she wasn’t married to the owner?

She’s co-owner of the team. Of course she is going to be part of this. That happens on every team.

Half the Walton family just met with Russell Wilson to tell him to be a better teammate.

Team owners always have their say.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
