NFL Noise:
- It’s Franchise Tag Day! Let’s see who didn’t sign a long-term deal & are taking the one-year Tag rate:
- Patriots Guard Joe Thuney – $14.78 million.
- First Patriots tag since 2015.
- Chargers Tight End Hunter Henry – $10.767 million.
- It’s due to his missing all of 2018 & four games from 2019 due to injury.
- No long-term deal until he last a whole season.
- It’s due to his missing all of 2018 & four games from 2019 due to injury.
- Bucs Linebacker Shaq Barrett – $15.828 million
- He has filed a grievance, claiming he should be paid as a DE and not a Linebacker, based on number of snaps at each position last season.
- That would raise his Tag pay by almost $2.0 million.
- He has filed a grievance, claiming he should be paid as a DE and not a Linebacker, based on number of snaps at each position last season.
- Steelers Linebacker Bud Dupree – $15.828 million
- Same grievance as Barrett.
- Jaguars Defensive End Yannick Ngakoue – $17.788 million.
- He wants a trade out of Duval, but the Jags aren’t likely to move him.
- Cowboys QB Dak Prescott – $31.4 million
- We’ve covered this before.
- Giants Defensive Lineman Leonard Williams – $16.126 million
- Wants a raise; Giants won’t pay – it’s the “Mike Brown” theorem.
- Bengals WR AJ Green – $17.865 million.
- As stated above – why pay top dollar when you can get away with 35 cents and fans still buy tickets?
- Patriots Guard Joe Thuney – $14.78 million.
- Texans WR Kenny Stills was arrested at a Breonna Taylor protest in Louisville Tuesday night.
- He was among a group of protesters who were arrested outside the Kentucky Attorney General’s private residence, demanding charges against the three officers involved in the shooting.
- They all face felony charges of “intimidating a participant in the legal process”.
- “Due to their refusal to leave the property and their attempts to influence the decision of the Attorney General with their actions,” was the statement the police gave for their actions.
- They all face felony charges of “intimidating a participant in the legal process”.
- Stills’ agent pointed out the incongruities:
- He was among a group of protesters who were arrested outside the Kentucky Attorney General’s private residence, demanding charges against the three officers involved in the shooting.
Kenny Stills:
– stood on a lawn
– asked for justice
– got arrestedCops that killed Breonna Taylor:
– kicked in her door
– killed her
– didn't get arrested@KSTiLLS has officially spent more time in jail fighting for justice than the known killers who killed Breonna Taylor.— Ryan Williams (@RyanWilliamsA1) July 15, 2020
- The Packers are the latest team to announce no fans will be able to attend any preseason functions.
- This includes their traditional “Family Night” practice and the one preseason game they are anticipating playing at home.
- Of course, the real controversy will come when they try to ban “owners” from the events.

That guy was great.
All you Americans tearing your hair out over a product that’s unavailable in a country that considers El Paso beans “foreign food”.
You want to boycott a company because they mistreat their employees? Great!
You want to boycott a company because they discriminate against people? I’m with you.
You want to boycott a company because the CEO kissed Trump’s ass? Really?
Someone please explain to me what Goya as a company has done wrong. What social change will this boycott effect?
Maybe they’ll go out of business, the CEO will go to debtors prison, and then trump will commute the sentence.
Exactly. Stone knows.

Maybe post 1,000 more times, that’ll do the trick. Hearing the same argument over and over again is so persuasive.
Really? You’re digging in your heels and you’re right and I’m wrong and we can’t meet in the middle?
No wonder this country is fucked.
I haven’t changed my mind, and neither have you, and that’s fine as far as I’m concerned. I’m good with agreeing to disagree, and was just suggesting we drop the subject.
Apparently that’s not good enough for you, and we have to keep going until we “meet in the middle?” Which seems hard to do as I can’t see where you’ve made any attempt to compromise.
Seriously, dude. You posted umpteen Goya pictures, which was fine because people were having fun with it. Then you posted a new comment to make clear that you think boycotts are stupid, we had some back and forth. Then you posted ANOTHER comment to repeat that you think boycotts are stupid, and when I point out that you’re browbeating us all, I’m the bad guy and the reason “this country is fucked?”
Look, I made the mistake of getting into a serious argument on a not very serious discussion site, and I got a little pissy about it. I’ll own that. But you were every bit as belligerent as me, yet seem to want to claim the moral high ground.
Nah, I don’t want moral ground. I advocate for anal sex for fucks sake. I got pissy too. Agree to disagree and let’s just drop it.
Nothing immoral about anal sex as long as the emu is consensual.
Yes! One aspect: 45’s record on Hispanics (“thugs”), separating kids from their parents and jailing them without blankets. Stockholders should push for an apology. It’s good stewardship.
It’s a privately owned company – they don’t have stockholders.
If they did, Rikki would have bought it before it crashed and sold it before it spiked

Tonight in fake baseball, the Evil Empire struck back.
The ’27 Yankees evened their series with the ’88 Dodgers with a 3-0 victory in Game Four. Urban Shocker (W, 3-0) and Wilcy Moore (SV, 9) combined on the shutout.
The ’61 Yankees tied up their series with the 2012 Giants with a 4-3 win. Bill Skowron drove in all four runs, with a two-run homer (10) in the 2nd, and a two-run double in the bottom of the 6th after the Giants had briefly taken the lead.
Urban Shocker? Two in the pank, one in the stank
Urban Shocker gets all the credit for the name, but it was really Three-Finger Brown who invented it.
Very happy with that reply.
In case it’s not clear, I think boycotts for political reasons are stupid.
It is said 75% of CEOs are sociopaths. If we boycott every company over the actions of their CEO, no one would buy anything.
Literally the single most important development in 20th century America came as a result of a political boycott. Boycotting is the single most powerful tool the general public has.
And you’re going to use it because the CEO of a company likes someone you don’t like?
I’m neutral. As I said below, we’d all starve because they’re all slimy fucks. That being said, since money is apparently the only free speech our country gives a fuck about at this point, everyone has a right, and, in my opinion, an obligation, to spend according to their conscience, as much as their circumstances allow.
True. On the other hand, fuck the Goya guy.
Fuck the Goya CEO, but what about the thousands of employees that have never met him and will get laid off if the boycott is successful?
While that’s definitely a good point, fuck the Goya CEO.
Completely agree
Also…LIKE ANY CONSERVATIVE HAS EVER BEEN IN A STORE WITH GOYA PRODUCTS
It doesn’t have to come to that. A public apology from the CEO and a promise not to kiss the administration’s ass any more would end the boycott effectively.
Really? You’re going to put people livelihoods on the line over a fucking apology?
This is literally the argument conservatives constantly make in bad faith to argue against the practice of boycotting. Literally holding workers hostage to protect the wealthy.
Except when conservatives boycotted companies they were mad at. Like Nike for hiring Kaep. Or Disney for welcoming gay people to its parks. Or Kellogg’s cereal for I forget what. Or any advertiser that ever pulled its ads from Fox News.
It only took them a few years to realize the reverse boycott they used when they bought a bunch of Keurigs to throw them out of windows was untenable
I’m saying all politically motivated boycotts are stupid. Conservative or liberal.
https://xkcd.com/774/
Don’t know what to tell you, man. Montgomery Bus Boycotts. Boycotts that put additional pressure on apartheid South Africa and expedited its end. Even businesses utilize boycotts like when everyone started pulling out of NC when the bathroom bill passed. How many jobs is each of these worth?
That’s different. Those boycotts were for principles and for social change.
Not because one political party doesn’t like the other.
Right, because that’s what elections are all about. Not about policies or principles or anything that will affect people’s lives. It’s just about whether you like the donkey better than the elephant.
Oh bullshit. Nobody’s livelihood is on the line. Maybe the CEO’s bonus.
Besides, if people boycott Goya, they’ll be buying other company’s products, so by your logic those companies will hire more and it all evens out.
But sure, it’s more important to let the government co-opt business for political purposes. Wouldn’t want to speak up in opposition to that!
It doesn’t work out that way. It’s not even. The amount of people hired elsewhere is l always ess than those fired.
I must have missed that law when I was getting my economics degree.
This is not economic theory, it’s real world. Jobs are not located in the same place. An employee cannot simply move to a different city where the other company’s plant is.
If this was just a CEO donating money to the campaign or otherwise being a douche in his own life, I’d agree. But this is a CEO going to a White House event and standing up in front of the cameras as CEO of Goya and declaring “Trump is good for business.”
Trump has been doing this shit from day one, and it’s dangerous. Even non-sociopathic CEOs figure it’s better to play along and be used for political purposes, because they remain in the administration’s good graces for tariffs, tax breaks, regulatory advantages, etc. It’s important to give these companies a down side, so that some of them start to beg off and say “sorry, we don’t take sides in politics — company policy!”
That’s native. Companies do that shit all the time. You might as well tell athletes to stick to sports.
Also, the same CEO went to the Obama White House for a similar event.
They’re all slime, but why hurt the little people?
Midgets are fun to throw around, and what does that have to do with anything?
And did that CEO gush praise for the Obama administration and its policies? I doubt it. It was Trump who started this with his CEO Council or whatever the fuck it was.

Silly Spam, you know you can’t get pregnant from anal sex!
I mean…I know I sure can’t
Okay; that was good.
Well, plus I’m sure you are too, but you made a good joke is what I meant.

More a response to the brand in general. I’ve seen Goya sodas, but I’ve never seen that particular flavor. I imagine it’s even rarer up in Michigan than it would have been back home.

Working through Curb, and it reminded me I haven’t heard “You Oughta Know” maybe since I moved away from the east coast, presumably another victim of the great and powerful algorithm.

Given the history as outlined by his niece concerning Trump’s scoring well on his SATs, I’d bet that the entire current administration paid someone else to take the mandatory Ethics in Government training for them.
Also, I like how he has a bunch of pictures of people he doesn’t give a fuck about on the credenza behind him. Unless there’s a nude of Ivanka hidden in there.
Speaking of which; she thinks that all the newly unemployed should just go get jobs.

There’s room to move as a fry cook.
Or a Goya spokesperson.
And zero fucking papers or folders on the damned desk.
Check out the Secretary of Education’s bookshelf.
There are three fundamental truths to be understood when looking at this: 1) Goya foods are trash, 2) If we’re going to boycott every company whose dipshit CEO is happy to have Trump in office, we’re all going to starve to death, 3) Donald Trump is just impossibly dumb
Big NO on Goya food being trash. Beans, tomato sauce, and bottled vegetables are great. Just stating a fact, not endorsing gusano ownership.
And 45 wouldn’t know sofrito from burger relish. ??
The only use I ever had for Goya was way back in 1992, when in 4th grade music, we were forced to learn “Goober Peas”, which ultimately turned into 35 inner city 9 year olds screaming “GOYA PEAS” at the teacher until we broke his psyche. It turned out it was popular among Confederate soldiers, so we definitely did the right thing.
Please kill yourselves. Tonight.

Second Don T on the Goya foods are NOT trash.
They’re fucking delicious.
If the president of Goya foods comes out and commits suicide, we’ll know what happened.
He tried to feed Trump canned mondongo ?
The image is CGI. All self-respecting food stylist declined participation.
For previous administrations this would be a gross breach of ethics.
I get it. The joke is that ignorant people think Trump is an anomaly.
