The two party system, that George Washington warned us about in his fair well address, leads most to not care about context. That was a typo. It was supposed to say context is important. Of course it’s important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said what he meant and he meant what he said. Take it or leave it, love him or hate him. He doesn't care. I gotta lotta respect for that, most people would have crumbled and backtracked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see, but just barely respectful. He apologizes like a scorned teenage girl though lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RegretStergeR Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 To many “woke” refers to the social excesses of the left. I get that isn’t the origin of the term. But I’m sure everyone on the team knows there was nothing racially charged about his words. The same way they all knew he wasn’t vaccinated. They weren’t mislead. They are pretty much the only ones whose opinion should matter. And I doubt they care. It’s people that have no connection whatsoever to the situation that think they have some reason to be offended. I don’t see how some people get up and tie their shoes in the morning. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would have been better served in August to say “I will not address questions about Covid vaccination or Covid protocols. It is a divisive subject in general, so I am not going there. I am here to talk about football.” No lie there. It is defendable based on him not owing the public information about his personal life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
