Black folk talk shit. It ain't t the end if the world. U can play the added motivation card but if Pitt ain't motivated to go to the super bowl they don't deserve it. White folk want u to act the way they want u to with all these unwritten cracker rules. Baseball takes the cake

Bruh..i cant f w you w all this fake revolution bullshit u be spitting. Sorry too old to act like jesse jackson n al sharpton. Especially when u aint doing shit but posting on a msg board...

No shit racism exist n sports, but not everything is about color..this shit was more the sports media then anything, n like john b said...a non issues..especially in NE.

U be surprised what players use to "motivated" them...watch some sports documentaries...u will see, they use anything to get to the next level..

Bruh all that wasn't needed. Black folk don't care bout that shit like that

I seen that....I've been in denial. Last year, everybody hated him. This year, nobody wants him to leave. Hope the best for him.

 

[fortyacres]

The Patriots are my team but i dont want to see them anywhere near a lombardi trophy, i aint trynna see Brady and Belichick's Trump loving asses at a the White House. Fuck outya here.

its just deeper than rap.

Ha ha

Fuck that...win. i dont gotta watch/ or care u w trump thats what the remote is for. Win, keep these haters salty!

nah f that (for me anyway)

Brady slighted Pres Obama and lied about it.

the locker room hat and the letter of congratulations (blatantly too) was just too much fuck shit i could tolarate from Brady.

His wife is a foreigner and he plays with hispanic & black teammates and has a multi ethnic & multi cultural fanbase who buy and support his product, he should know better. I dont give a damn if he has been friends with that orange fuck for years.

Bruh...it aint that serious. I dont care what these players culturally stand for. They there just to entertain me on sunday. I can give a fuck if brady fucks w obama or not.

Just throw TDs...i fucks w obama that's all that matters

Thats you opinion and thats fine

but to me if we hold black athletes accountable for their affiliations and things that they say or profess to stand up for publicly , i think white athletes should be held to that same standard too.

Im not paying or buying a product(s) to support a man who unashamedly endorses any of Donald Trump and his ilk's politics because up to this point it has been rather extreme. I just find that disturbing.

I know money and winning seem to be the most important thing in american culture whilst disregarding many other things (that i think personally are more important) and i just cant really fuck with that type of thinking.

Collins: Giants DBs passed on boat trip invite

All-Pro safety Landon Collins said Wednesday on SportsCenter that the New York Giants' defensive backs were invited on the now infamous Miami boat trip but declined the offer.

Wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr., Victor Cruz, Sterling Shepard and Roger Lewis flew to Florida late the night of Jan. 1 after the regular-season finale and partied into the morning. Pictures of them surfaced in a club with Justin Bieber and partying shirtless on a yacht.

"We actually were invited. We decided not to go," Collins said. "Just we wanted -- there's a receivers group and there is [defensive backs] group -- so it was like I'm going to go with my DBs. And we decided to do something different."

What that was Collins wouldn't say.

"I can't say out loud," he said with a smile and a chuckle.

Whatever it was, it wasn't quite as crazy as the wide receivers' party, which led to some criticism of the players' playoff preparation. Meanwhile, cornerbacks Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and Trevin Wade were in the weight room at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center early that Monday morning before the receivers had even gone to sleep.

The Giants began preparations for their wild-card playoff game that Tuesday. They lost to the Green Bay Packers 38-13 on Jan. 8, and several of their wide receivers put in subpar performances.

Coach Ben McAdoo said firmly throughout the week that he wasn't going to pass public judgment on what his wide receivers did on their off day.

"The players are off," McAdoo said. "They're not working."

Collins thought McAdoo would have a meeting on the subject when the players returned that week. He touched on it lightly, Collins said, but the focus was on the Packers.

Giants players didn't have any problems with their teammates' decision to travel to Miami six days before their playoff game, even if it did shine the spotlight brighter in their direction, he said.

"We didn't mind it at all. That was our off day," Collins said. "You have every right to do whatever you want on our off day. They decided to do that."

The Giants were adamant after their poor performance against the Packers that the drama had nothing to do with the result. But quarterback Eli Manning thought Beckham might have put too much pressure on himself in his first playoff game. The Pro Bowl receiver had two drops and couldn't reel in some other potential catches.

Julian Edelman not surprised by Brown's locker room video: 'That's how that team is run'

Even if New England Patriots’ coach Bill Belichick would have you believe he is blissfully unaware of social media, his players are familiar with the platform and what was posted after the Pittsburgh Steelers game on Sunday night. Some have been more than happy to express their opinion on the video and wide receiver Julian Edelman was among the first to pour scorn on Pittsburgh.

Appearing on WEEI Sports Radio with Ordway, Merloni & Fauria Monday, Edelman took time out to share his thoughts on the Facebook Live broadcast and throw some shade at the Steelers organization in general.

“That’s how that team is run. I personally don’t think that would be something that would happen in our locker room, but hey whatever. Some people like red and some people like blue. Some people like tulips and some people like roses, whatever . . . I wouldn’t do that so I personally — I wouldn’t do that. Let’s just say that and I’d be more worried about just trying to celebrate with my teammates and keeping it internal.”

Big Ben counters Julian Edelman: We've got trophies out there

PITTSBURGH -- Ben Roethlisberger defended his organization Wednesday when asked if he had a response to Julian Edelman's comments about the way the Pittsburgh Steelers run their locker room.

Edelman gave his thoughts Monday to WEEI in Boston about a controversial live video shot by Antonio Brown in the Steelers postgame locker room Sunday. Brown's video captured Mike Tomlin calling the Patriots "a-h-."

While Edelman appeared to be pointing out that Tomlin probably has different rules for his team than Bill Belichick does for his, Roethlisberger talked about the bigger picture in response. He referenced the team's ownership and six Lombardi trophies (the New England Patriots have four of their own) as a rebuttal.

"I don't think I need to speak much; we've got the trophies out there; we've got owners that I think are the best in the business," Roethlisberger said. "They're family to us, and I'm sure if he talked to his owner, they would say the same thing about the Rooneys. Anybody in here or in the football word or the regular world that knows the Rooneys know what they are and what they stand for. It's a blessing to call them family ...

"Guys have come from other teams and they look shocked when they see our owners walking around the locker room, walking around at practice. They don't ever see their owners. We see our owners every single day. I think it's just a blessing to know that they care about us and that's one of the reasons we want to win."

Glad we were able to keep Vrabel and Crennel on tne coaching staff. Now get to work on the O.

O'Brien doing all the playcalling too this should be very interesting if they start off slow I can see them getting rid of him and making Romeo HC

So the only receiver that didn't go had the best game. King should have played more this season.

So the DBs didn't go but still proceeded to give up 360 yards and 4 TDs.
