Riley Cooper would you want him

[TheRed]

We also did not see any footage about the people that he was referring to in that video..For all we know, they could have been pushing his buttons for a while. He was obviously defensive in that video. Im not racist, but if white or black people want to act tough and thuggish, I may have some negative words for them as well.

Is this post serious?

Is this post serious?

 

Yes it is. Do you know what the events that lead up to the racial comments were? You can tell there was a dispute before the video was taken. Someone was obviously trying to hold him back. We dont know what they were though. They could have been screaming "stupid cracker" for all we know..Not defending anything he said, but we don't know the full reason for his outrage. The media focused on the reaction, not the story.

The only point I'm trying to make is we cant take everything the media gives  us as the "truth". Riley is more than likely a spoiled kid that rightfully was exposed as a racist punk.

Cooper basically took responsibility for being a drunken moron, so with him taking responsibility, I doubt there was a lot of back and forth.  Just his fault pure and simple.

Nope. He felt safe to be a racist around his white friends, he wouldn't have given what he did a second thought if he hadn't been caught on video.

Keep him away from this team.

Yeah, and ESPN and CNN feel safe being racist and sexist by pointing out that people are hired based on their skin color or they are not hired based on their skin color.

Maybe he wasn't being racist, if he was being called a cracker then would it have been called for?

I'd rather have him and Eric Decker than Lafell and Armanti.( I know Armanti was cut but that's what we had last offseason)

Bottom line is that I've heard far worse things in similar situations from people of all colors. He's a big dude who can go up and get the ball.

Rightfully exposed a racist you say? It's really difficult to fathom being an outright racist in this sport. People said Richie Incognito was racist for his statements. I seriously doubt that considering Pouncey had no problem at all with Richie.

only a stupid cracker would say this^

What are you using the word cracker here for? Punk ass.

For the right price and as long as he keeps his mouth shut... sure.

People wanna be so forgiving now lol. He got drunk and his TRUE feelings came out. Keep that racist off the team.
