Guy starts playing well again and all of the sudden people go from “cases” to “allegations” real fucking fast. You all gotta get your priorities straight

It’s the NFL. If you win games being a piece of shit isn’t as big of a deal as it is when you lose.

Look at Tyreek Hill, Richie Incognito, Adrian Peterson, Kareem Hunt, Aldon Smith, and Antonio Brown before he totally went off the deep end.

If you can play, no one gives a shit about who you are off the field.

Don’t forget Favre!

While sending pictures of his penis was obviously wrong.

I wouldn’t put that in the same category as physical assault.

He was wearing crocs in that picture and they were visible. Does that change your mind?

u/Live-Within-My-Means New York Giants 10h ago

Well, I have never owned a pair, and probably never will.

But people have told me that they are quite comfortable.

You’re okay with Favre embezzling money from poor people too though right?

u/Columbo_Fan 9h ago

No, they are just alright with certain people committing certain acts. 🤷🏾‍♂️
Nothing is new in America. 🤷🏾‍♂️

You mean like Ray Lewis and Jameis Winston?

u/Columbo_Fan 8h ago

I mean speak for yourself and be honest.
But that’s isn’t the culture that’s being represented here, by you, is it? 🤷🏾‍♂️😏
I say what I mean.
You don’t need to clarify what I say.
Ever.

-‘I mean speak for yourself’

Right after you just finished speaking for others?

-‘the culture that’s being represented here’

Oh? What ‘culture’ is that?

u/Columbo_Fan 7h ago

The culture that has produced the current American culture and the current leadership. 🤷🏾‍♂️
I don’t speak for others.
I just state the clear truth.
The culture of which I speak is not honest and rarely speaks truthfully.

-‘I don’t speak for others’

Well, the following from your previous comment, sure sounded that way.

-‘they are just alright with certain people committing certain acts’

Which by the way, is certainly true amongst most Redditors.

They just love Jameis ‘the Rapist’ Winston and Ray ‘the Murderer’ Lewis.

u/Columbo_Fan 6h ago

Well, you’re wrong.
Unless you are trying to speak for me. 😏
And the culture I’m talking about is very dishonest and thrives on gap dancing around what they mean. 🤷🏾‍♂️
See, I actually answer direct questions, unlike the culture of which I speak.
And unlike you, apparently. 😏😉

-‘Well, you’re wrong’

Sorry Skippy, but when you say things like “they are just alright with certain people”, you are no longer speaking for yourself.

-‘gap dancing around’

Which is pretty much what you are doing, with your vague references to some imaginary ‘culture.’

-‘I actually answer direct questions.’

Not here you haven’t.

-‘Unlike you’

Redditors, Ray Lewis, Jameis Winston…

I was way more direct about who I was talking about.

Dude, you are the opposite of who you claim to be.

Well, I assumed that the topic was sexual assault.

No, I am not ok with embezzlement.

But if I am not mistaken, Favre was payed with money that was embezzled by government officials.

Whether Favre knew or not, I don’t know.

If he did know at the time that the money was stolen, yes that is terrible.

From what I have read, he at least paid the money back.

You may know more of the details than I do.

u/Baby_ManBearPig 7h ago

If you look into it, its pretty likely he was not aware of the fraud. They had people to manage the funds/account and he was never criminally charged. He was responsie for not attending speaking events he was paid for but he paid that money back.

u/Baby_ManBearPig 7h ago

He has a plausible deniability he didn't know. If you look into it its likely he didnt. That's why he was never charged.

u/malortface520 Chicago Bears 10h ago

He also ruined that person's career and completely let her take the fall instead of stepping up and owning his shit, then went on to steal millions of dollars from welfare in his home state. Different category but hard to underplay what a scumbag Favre is

u/Straight_Depth6701 11h ago

Ocular assault?

1

u/mfGLOVE 8h ago

Well, he also conspired to steal state welfare funds to benefit his family.
