Former NFL Pro Bowler Kris Jenkins defends Paula Deen

“She graced me with the opportunity to be on her show. While I was there, I had an amazing time, and [an] amazing experience. I saw something there that was a little different from what everyone knows of her…. The lady was a sweetheart to me; [her] making a mistake I’m not going to be the one to make a big deal of it. I got to see her heart and for me, I don’t look at the ‘N word’ as a bad word like that in this year — in 2013. The reason is because I think the ‘N word’ is more a test of my inner strength as to how strong am I to even be bothered by the word or not.”

Wait, so she's being crucified for admitting that at some point during her life she said the "N" word? LOL

 

It's an awful word and anybody that uses it should be ashamed, but this seems like just a little bit of an overreaction.

Also the slave/plantation themed wedding for her son Bubba that she had planned. Not to mention she has a recent racial discrimination lawsuit pending. Also why she's being "crucified" as you say.

Ah okay, I had gone out to find out what she said and all I saw was her admitting in a deposition during the lawsuit that at some point in her life she had used the "N" word. 

 

The more I google, the more a pattern seems to emerge.

    • I think it's more related to the difference between proven talent and projected talent. Our proven talent is quite literally almost nonexistent. Our projected talent could be significantly more. Obviously, it remains to be seen how many DJ Moore's we get and how many TMJ's(not making this position specific, just giving examples of clear progression of careers and talent being realized versus not). This could be an exceptionally terrible, underwhelming, okay, fairly decent, surprisingly good, etc roster. All that has to play out on the field because our known entities in terms of above average caliber NFL players is paltry but most standards. All that digital bloviating to basically say, "Show me." As for Tepper, I genuinely don't think he has meddled that much less and I don't think he has stepped back. I think he just cleaned house of most of the people chirping about it internally while not making himself so publicly visible because he is very aware of the meme he has made himself and this franchise. IMO, he will continue to fug this franchise over because that is who he is as a person.

    • Also Walker is a game time decision. He might not be able to play tonight.
