He traded up and blew the 2nd overall pick on a QB that couldn’t even win the starting job going into year 4. That is reserved for Jamarcus Russell and Blaine Gabbert.

That is worse than 10,000 Bazuins.

Francis Scott Key was certainly racist.

What the lines mean is that the British manipulated blacks into trying to fight for them. The British actually make no mention of trying to attract slaves in the original proclamation, only that they would accept blacks as freemen and not as slaves.

There were free blacks and slave blacks in the US at the time.

What the lines were was to admonish the people that switched sides whether they were freemen or not.

You could intrepret that as racist or not.

It was probably best that the poem was amended.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave


From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave



Idk how to interpret this as anyway but racist. Its basically openly mocking that slaves would be killed if they fought for their freedom with the British. I think its pretty obvious the British scheme was they could recruit slaves with freedom and hurt the American side in that way. Therefore these lines are directed at slaves and mocking their decision.

No apology needed but thank you anyway. You are the king of flip flopping so maybe you can take the apology back in your next post...LOL

Maybe the apology can keep you warm as you wrap yourself in your 8-8 snuggy and wank it over Dollar Store Jerry Angelo.

My family was British Loyalist who left the states for Canada at the start of the war.

Who is laughing now Francis Scott Key?

A prayer to Ryan Pace


Give us our yearly 8-8
And forgive us our hope
As we forgive every dog shit move you make
And lead us not into the temptation of a modern NFL offense
But deliver us from the evil of having a franchise QB

Ahmen

Please do not place M Trubisky in the same sentence as J Russell. TIA.

People said they were "gay" and said someone else was "gay" 70 years ago and had nothing to do with being a homophobe. Gay 70 years ago in its most used context meant happy. You are using your 2020 definition for a word used 100s of years ago.

Its not rocket science to figure out what he meant with that terminology. He used it very pointedly here during a time when it would be obvious who he was talking about

Pace hired Nagy so if we want to blame pace for that then fine ....

However, Marc Nagy was hired to make this offense work. He thinks he is the smartest man in the room, but his offense entirely sucked. All of it. He had one year of moderate success and he has been found to be a fraud.
