did anybody read this article from fox sports...

We can quit calling Steve McNair a great leader now. Leadership starts at home.

And I'm no longer all that interested in hearing about the community service work McNair did in Tennessee and Mississippi. Service to community begins at home, too.

There's no doubt he did good things for the community. Those things should be valued for what they were. Many people in the public eye or not have done good and bad things and one can't throw out the good even though the guy did bad things. BUT...Whitock is right about the kids being a deal breaker when it comes to making those types of choices in one's personal life. I can't believe more aren't talking about the drunk driving stuff though. Those kids having a drunk driver for a dad isn't cool either.

Leaders should be good example setters, hence have higher standards for their behavior. Those, he didn't have.

Either way you look at it, it's a sad story. Everyone loses, especially those 4 boys.

None of us knows the circumstances in his marriage and I won't hazard a guess. It's not for me to condemn him now for his poor choices. He's not around to make things right for his kids.

He's human and he screwed up royally by involving this girl (and that's all she is to me...she's less than 2 years older than one of my nieces) so getting involved with a married man had this young woman in way over her head.

I think it's sad that this is the legacy he left his children. He didn't leave them with a very good message of what it is to be a man, husband or father- only that he is much beloved as a former player in the NFL and he is tragically flawed in his relationships with his family.

I have never cheated. Never messed around on a girlfriend either. If somebody new came along, I broke up with her....I have regretted that decision from time to time. But my conscience is clean, when it comes to cheating.

Ditto

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
