Ray Lewis was found not guilty. Mike vick had a special skill that no one else could do (not saying he was the best qb but you know what I mean). Craig Carton doesn't.
I see what you're driving at, but the guy did deliver high ratings during morning drive in the most competitive market in the country. I don't doubt that WP exists, but I think this is more of a case of getting a proven commodity to rescue afternoon drive. It's sort of the same thing as guys like Josh Gordon getting multiple chances. The guy is an elite talent and if he ever gets it together, you've struck gold and you're the executive of the year.
Josh Gordon smoked weed. Craig Carton used his job to swindle people out of money and then engage in illegal activity with that money. I doubt a black sports radio host would get their job back after similar actions.
He did a little more than that. There are other examples like the DE the Cowboys signed, whose name escapes me. And who was the receiver who struck and killed a man in Florida while driving drunk but was still able to play? Like I said, I'm not debating you on WP, I just think this isn't one of those cases.
Previous post about white privilege gets deleted and here you are again spouting the same thing.
Was voted in by free citizens totally different don’t you think? SMH
How would I know its deleted? Why would it be deleted, did you report it? You like censorship don't you?
Donte Stallworth and he's a clown too. Cnn had him on talking about injustices towards AA's after the George Floyd murder and that was the last person I wanted to hear talk about injustices was infuriating. I don't think Josh Gordon did more than that he smoked weed and took aderall. I had friends play college football who did both constantly.
Don't make assumptions about someone you don't know pal. It was clearly deleted. Not that hard to tell. Unless you're too busy trolling 10 threads at a time.
Greg: Carton’s “privilege” stems not from his skin color but from the fact that
other degenerate gamblers idolized him on the radio show for years. The race card is not part of his getting his job back.... maybe... It’s not a black , brown tan , white issue here but sadly you always make it about race.
Most people don't go back and scroll up through a thread to see if old comments are still there. Weird that you were scrolling to see what was deleted...
You mean the guy who played 7 NFL games afterwards and then correctly lost his job permanently because of his actions? Again his crime had nothing to do with his job, he didn't go to prison, and he actually was extremely talented at his profession (one of the top players in the NFL) unlike Carton, who could be replaced by numerous people. Google Bruce Miller btw, back in the NFL after 4.5 years not playing after beating up an old man so bad he was hospitalized, which was after another arrest for beating up his fiance. Guess what race he is? And he's not nearly as talented as Ray Rice, or Greg Hardy.
Thoughts on Mike Tyson? Who literally raped a woman that he only met as a result of his job.
Still making money off his dirtbag past, even has a cartoon on Cartoon Network. Treated as some kind of hero when he ruined a young woman's life.
Yup that's horrible, dude is a dirtbag, but who can be surprised that he still has such influence. He is good friends with the most powerful man in the world.
If the Rice incident had occurred say (last year ) Ray would have probably gotten a 2nd chance after serving penalty time. Timing is everything and more so in today’s world. I’m happy Ray , his wife and their family are doing well .
Hey it was close enough Gregory. Evidently my Mandarin needs improvement... Ping , Pong either or.
For your reference there is a little button next to the original comment on replies that bounces you back to the original comment. I also clicked on that for your original post and it couldn't find it which led to me it had been deleted. Just so you know.
Why not Greg everyone deserves a 2nd chance isn’t that part of the new social mantra? What Ray did was bad but served his penalty time. He and the Mrs. are still together and he has done all they requested but if this had happened within the past year Ray I believe would have been given another chance In the NFL .Being a black male with an untainted past history he definitely falls into that category.

Like the f***ing morons in New Orleans who voted that idiot back even after his failure during Katrina...or every other stupid failing city that re-elects their failed mayors...the Midwest is replete with examples...
I have no one on Ignore on this Board.
But Greg2020 is currently pushing the envelope.
But like the Whack-a-mole that he is, how long before he surfaces under a new screen name?
Im predicting a certain future ban for Greggie2020 very soon.

Why NJ.com put this on the RU football page is bafflingLooks like disgraced celebrity Craig Carton will be back on WFAN by October when his HBO Doc comes out as per NJ . Com. What the article doesnt say whether he will be back in the mornings with his boys Boomer, Al, Jerry, and Eddie or he will be on in the afternoons to take on ESPN Radio.
It's bad enough Gio has done a good job replacing Carton. Hell a great job considering that hes been working with a smile in his face with the morning crew has been honeydicking the man who ripped Gio as "an intern replacement." Imagine all the crap if Carton is back?
Should be an interesting October if all of this is true.
