        He never will say it. He doesn't want police unions and cop advocate groups coming after him. He took the easy way out.

        There are bad people in this world. Some of them are police officers. Why is it so hard for them to acknowledge that?

        And he said they were articulate. Just stop. Stop using the word articulate when speaking about black men.

        He absolutely skirted police brutality, but cribs from the memo four players sent to the NFL, which is...interesting https://deadspin.com/nfl-players-send-memo-requesting-roger-goodells-support-1818619092 …

        He knows some feel threatened when Black people protest injustice and police brutality, they fear their own privileged status is under siege

        Yes, lots of pandering to white fans over speaking up for black player employees.

        Actually NFL players have specifically called for bail reform. http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/16/opinions/nfl-bail-reform-opinion/index.html …
