Of course there is a double standard and it exists in all of sports. It is less worrisome at the player level than at the executive level where someone like Mitch Kupchak is assumed to be smart by virtue of being a tall cac and someone like Elgin Baylor is fired after 3 years and never gets another GM shot.

The last point of the article is over the top though any player stealing the Brady jersey at a Red Sox game would have been treated as just a regular prank.

The man went out dancing the night after a SB loss in a game where his messed up ankle let a plodding linebacker named Chase Blackburn outjump him for an interception

Let that have been TO..
True but he wasnt supposed to be prepareing for a game coming up...and he got lots of shyt for it...to be clear, I love what he does for the team (when healthy) but he does comeoff like a frat douche

if he was playing 16 game seasons, then this would be okay.

he always getting injured, so it should be talked about.
No it wouldn't lol. They don't care if a black player plays every snap they still going to find a way to attack his character. Look at Manziel the fact that he getting interest from a couple teams says enough. Josh Gordon prolly wont ever get to play though...
