Mike Wallace continues to prove we make a good decision

I figured it would have been by now

 

I'm just glad me and Mikey can finally see eye to eye! Hooda thunk it??? LOL! Just playing around folks!

 

+1

I'm completely in agreement with you blount.

 

I get what you're saying. Mendenhall had a right to say what he said on Twitter a while back as well. The thing is, the players aren't just individuals. They represent a league and their team so they have to be careful what they say in a public setting.

 

It's from Harry Potter

 

I totally see what you mean. The Dolphins don't wanna alienate a whole group of people.

 

TOMMY LEE!!!???? HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I'd say more Gene Simmons! LOLOLOL!!!

 

Yeah someone else confirmed it was a Harry Potter dude. I've never watched a Harry Potter movie but I've heard they are actually pretty good.

 

You're SO intolerant!!! LOL!!

 

A standing ovation to you sir!

 

I'm bowing like a ballerina. LOL. Thanks though.

 

I don't know how to respond to much of this except:

All this blow up in the media because of someone's opinion/comment is ridiculous. And to be fair, Wallace was ASKED about what he thought about that NBA player that announced he was gay... but of course they do not add that into the story.

Regardless though, the media DOES blow up when someone has an opinion that goes against the "pop-culture" norms and Wallace does represent an extremely public organization so you gotta watch what you say on these social networking sites regardless of how BS it is...

 

He can have his own opinion, but he has to be careful of when he is expressing it and to whom. As an adult you SHOULD be able to recognizes in situations advance where saying something just isn't a good idea and that's it's better to keep your yap shut even if you were asked a question.

 

Which half am I in? Just curious.

 

So if it was a good decision to get rid of Mike Wallace because he is so stupid as evidenced by his tweets, what does it say about bringing in a WR that is so stupid that he shoots himself in the thigh and ends up going to the slam for 2 yrs?

Clearly intelligence is not THE determining factor for roster spots, if it were teams would have a hard time putting 11 guys on the field.

i've stopped listening to player interviews with the media. The dumb one say dumb things, the smart ones say nothing. So no there's no reason to listen.

 

It doesn't surprise me that Wallace spouted off on twitter. He said what he said, and there are plenty of individuals that don't understand.

But what is to understand? There are Gay individuals in our everyday life. So what.

The sports player that came out, I could care less. I judge people by there attitudes, not by if they are gay or by the color of there skin. An idiot is an idiot.

We all bleed the same, so best to just move along. There are more pressing issues in life then to waste mind space on whether people are gay or not.

 

Well said Ray. It's funny to me that people don't see how this civil rights issue is exactly the same as any others in our nation's history.

To those of you that say it's a choice. I have a cousin that I spend a lot of time with that is gay... We've known since he was about 5 years old... I'm sure there's lots of you here that know someone like that... How can you really say that a person who's acted this way since they were a kid "chose" to be that way? He may not have accepted it until he was in his 30's because society told him his entire life that he was wrong, and should be ashamed, but it was always obvious. Hell... The way they're treated, why would anyone choose to be that way? I've got a thing for brunettes, I've never dated a blonde girl in my life... I don't set out saying this is all I'm going to date... It's just happened because I'm drawn to those women, I don't control who I'm attracted to.

You're (those that side with Mike Wallace) absolutely free to believe whatever you want, but what I don't understand is where you draw the line on gays, because it makes you uncomfortable.

...and just to TTF... I'm playing nice. No name calling, or personal attacks here. I know you're nervous

 

And I thought this was great. Mike got burned by one of the Jersey Shore airheads...

So many of you were saying how Blount's post was 'the post of the year'. Well count me in the camp that considers this post 50 times better.

There are people in this world fighting for the right to have clean water and to have food. There are people fighting because of sheer hate. So many in this country choose to fight because they feel that others LOVE someone that they shouldn't. That, my friends, is the real 'SMH'.
