Of course it isn't provable that Jerry was in the Klan. He wouldn't be an NFL owner if it was.

Sometimes you just know.

Richardson has spent nearly 25 years building himself up as a cult of personality within his own organization.

After all those years of brainwashing, you can't expect them to snap out of it overnight.
The man built a giant statue of himself outside their stadium for the love of gently caress.

It's probably one of those things where you won't fully realize how hosed up everything was until you're fully divorced of the situation.
Much like Richardson's victims did, once they were able to pry themselves from outside of his slimy grasp on their lives and careers.

Keep the statue of Sam Mills. He earned it.

Keep the statue of Jerry McCormack because he was the first GM and President and had a good NFL career and so far as we know wasn't a shithead.

Cover or hide or remove the statue of Richardson after he passes. He's on his second ticker, he's not long for the world. Place a plaque at the new location of his statue that notes he was a shithead.

NFL is good at cover ups. They’ll let this die after Jerry leaves just like they let Peyton’s steroid issue die after he said he’d retire.

If we beat the Bucs, how high of a draft pick will they get next year?

Somewhere from #3 to #5, most likely #4, but it depends on the Colts / Texans game and the tiebreakers. Browns (1) and Giants (2) aren't going to change (well, Colts and Giants could swap if the Texans and Giants both win, but it doesn't matter for this), but the Colts, Browns (from Texans) and Buccaneers could all be 4-12 after the weekend.

They probably stay at 5 because of SOS (Houston and Indy have weak SOS because they played each other twice, and Tampa played 6 games against winning-record teams just in the division)

Don't worry, the Bucs would find a way to lose regardless.

It'd be like that one South Park baseball episode with the team who practiced how to lose.

Reading the writing on the wall, Alex Mack probably isnt playing on Sunday which is going to really super suck. Hopefully Levitre is back so Garland can kick to Center.

Most of the players actually like him. I'm glad they're giving him another year instead of loving Gruden.

It seemed that way but they've played so hard the past two weeks when they could've mailed it in and the players have been supportive of him.
