Good lord...I bet like, 30 games every Saturday and watch like 10 games...I never heard of him! Link to comment

How is free speech dead when there's a very popular 'news' channel peddling conspiracy theories like black lives matter being a terrorist organization, and getting away with it with no punishment or censorship whatsoever? 4 1 Link to comment

I still cant understand how many right wingers dont know how freedom of speech works. I can go into work today and tell my boss he looks like a penis with a little hat on. Guess what? I wont be arrested. That is violating freedom of speech. But guess what else? Im getting fired because FOS has consequences. 6 1 Link to comment

Hahaha Quote "In light of today's tweet with the T-shirt that I was wearing, I met with some players and realize it's a very sensitive issue with what's going on in today's society," Gundy said in the video. "And so, we had a great meeting. [I was] made aware of some things that players feel like can make our organization, our culture even better than it is here at Oklahoma State. I'm looking forward to making some changes, and it starts at the top with me. And we've got good days ahead." Hubbard then said he had gone "about it the wrong way by tweeting" and added that "from now on we're gonna focus on bringing change, and that's the most important thing." Quote "By voicing our opinion we are happy to have came to a conclusion and opened a gateway to create some serious CHANGE around Oklahoma State. My teammates and I have all agreed we will go ahead and resume all workouts and activities," he wrote. "We're all in this together." Quote Houston Texans receiver Kenny Stills, who played at OSU rival Oklahoma, expressed displeasure with how the situation was resolved, tweeting to Hubbard: "You did nothing wrong. Without public pressure Gundy wouldn't have flinched. He didn't even apologize in this video." Hubbard later tweeted: "No don't get it twisted. Foots still on the gas. Results are coming. It's not over." https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/29315116/chuba-hubbard-doing-anything-oklahoma-state-mike-gundy-wears-oan-shirt Link to comment

So go to OAN. Watch it. If you think this network is neither left nor right and just refreshingly tells the truth as Gundy contends, you have no concept of the truth and can't read the room to save your life. Or you secretly agree with their methods and goals, which are truly North Korea worthy. Either way, it's a bad look for a coach of young men. Also...you think that dog and pony show scripted for Gundy means this is now officially over? 2 1 Link to comment

I don't waste my time watching new stations during my free time because I have better things to do and to watch. Also, I am not crazy. Also, I watch about 4 things because I am not a nutjob. Family Guy, Diners Drive ins and Dives, Sports and Netflix. I do think the dog and pony show means it is "over" in the sense that the RB that was pissed about it said they are fine with coming back to workout. This is not like Iowa...where it is clearly not over and there is still a chance that Ferentz is going to "retire" 1 Link to comment

I guess I don't know what you mean by "over" I mean, Gundy is not losing his job. What do you mean? Link to comment

You just said it was over because Hubbard said he was fine coming back for workouts.

Guy Chamberlin Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I mean, sometimes these rightwing news sources do a good job blurring their racist leanings. But sometimes they don't even try. This is OANN. https://thehill.com/homenews/media/365040-conservative-news-outlet-called-alabama-race-for-moore Link to comment
The Dude Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Hubbard got caught up in the cancel culture mob mentality. Kudos to him for acknowledging his mistake. There's hope yet for civil, rational conversation. 2 Link to comment
