Did you all read the same article I did?

The man is a racist, and this is prompting other teams to threaten lawsuits and to not play.

The SAME THING happened in 1947, when Mort and Walker Cooper of the St. Louis Cardinals threatened to not play the Dodgers, when Jackie Robinson was in his rookie season.

The other teams went after the Cards, and there were many lawsuit mentions thrown around.

A team, and a league, has the absolute right to protect their investments.

Consider the case of the sex offender drafted this last year, out of Oregon. The backlash was so severe that the team was forced to drop the player.

Consider what would happen if Antonio Brown was caught raping a woman...would any NFL team be allowed to sign him to a contract?

No issue here, move along.
