Love this move. Any word from that dork ESP and how the rival gangs feel about this?
It's about goddamn time. Welcome home, Pimp.
I can't believe we're doing a retirement tour for Jackson to try to get him a ring.

This is freaking T.O. all over again.
My only question is are we going to burn Pimp's jersey on the fence at C6 or what?!?
Because I'm IN on that.
Sure he is. You're a basket of sophistry and contradiction too.
It's almost as if I occasionally fly off the handle and post stupid shtein without thinking first.
Can't be, we don't allow that sort of thing here.
Unacceptable Rome.
Greatest move in the history of the NFL.
Get that statue up in front of the stadium next to BDN.

I've loved a lot of Eagles in my lifetime, that doesn't sound right, but Pimp is one of my all time favorites. Eat shtein Chip Kelly.
Being reported he's out three weeks
they are so done
Do they make the playoffs?
The West is grabbing the wildcard spots, And Dallas has a whole three actual games left on their schedule that they could easily lose.
Certainly these Week 2 takes will hold up nicely for the entire duration of the season.
Nobody's ever been wrong before, why start now?
#1 pick here we come! :D

theres a somewhat decent chance eagles are 2-2 and cowboys are 3-1 in 2 weeks. shiver me timbers im so ascared.
now if the eagles are 1-3 then yeah ok its gone
they won the super bowl with nick foles. the cowboys beat up on nyg and dc and will crush miami. wanna see them play a real team.
I saw they are co favorites at -112

Good chance it comes down to the Dallas game I'll be at. Ps lemme get an extra!
Surgery upcoming. To miss multiple weeks.
farg him and the medical staff.
This medical staff isn't "multiple staph infections" bad, but they're not great.
Only Washington is worse I think.
How do we know it was the staff's decision to opt out of surgery?
It was a Desean's decision
And he's allowed. The egregious mistake is rolling into this season with no player capable of stretching the field other than an old man making his last stand.
p.s.
I think he's done....the Washington game was his last hurrah...he won't play again this year, will be released in off season. Few other teams will have interest, if any. He might sign for cheap somewhere, but he'll be ineffective.

Just came across that myself. Damn. This won't end well.
im pretty sure desean has....next to no understanding of ww2, hitler, anti semitic tropes or anything else going on here. seems like got a case of the galaxy brain and is being easily manipulated into typo-ridden nonsense.
i cant really take this seriously. geo go zoom him a quickie lesson on 1940s germany
He's getting roasted and deservedly so.
Ignorance of the subject isn't a defense. And I cannot believe that anyone still thinks it's ok to use anything with Hitler in it.
The world is going farging crazy.
What are his chances of getting cut? That will be a big loss for the 12? 10? 8? games that he will suit up.
And I agree, he deserves the heat for this. Other years, it would look bad for a few days and then blow over. 2020, though...
He's going to have to sit down (I mean Zoom) with Howie and Jeff.
What'll actually save him is 2020. Because people say dumb shut by the hour he needs to hope he's out of the news cycle by tomorrow so he can quietly make amends.
Farrakhan is a bad dude.
he has to be off the team by COB today
Desean is a neonazi, have to confess I didn't see that one coming.
I can't believe Chip Kelly was the hero all along.
DeSean is an anti-Semite?
(Checks 2020 bingo card)
Nope.

Heartfelt apology. Move on. Cooper dropped an N bomb and played with them for 3 more years.
Yeah, I'm conflicted. On the one hand...we can't fire everyone every time.
On the other hand, we firin' people for far less than reppin' Hitler.
I'd like him gone just so the Deplorables can't claim double standard as credibly.
It's either a double standard for keeping him, or Muh Freeze Peach if they cut him. Might as well just let him play his six snaps this season and let him retire a dumbass.
For anyone in the public eye, social media should work like this:
You compose what you want to say. You send it to a PR flack. The PR flack (who is the only person with access to the accounts) posts it if it is not objectionable in any way, and has a long discussion with you if it is.
Ultimately it should be your call, but you gotta have a warning system built in.
The only thing heartfelt about that apology is he got caught showing his ass and regrets it.
Agree, somehow he still doesn't get it. Problem is the eagles are in terrible cap shape and can't afford his cap hit in cutting him. Instead of cutting him maybe Howie can renegotiate and have Desean play for half price this year.
Yeah I don't see them cutting him.

he should have been gone on the spot as well...also he was saved by vick because vick had just been given a second chance...i think if almost anyone else is the qb kkk is gone
also not only is this a different time but pimp is farging 33 years old...this isnt some 20 year old dopey kid...then you add in the football aspect of it which is by far the least important but this isnt an up and coming young superstar who maybe gets a longer leash...pimp probably wont even be in the league the next time the team plays a meaningful season
all that said im willing to put my faith in lurie as he obviously knows him better than any fan does and hes "jewish"...altho he might be less of a jew than the lil guy if thats even possible...still if he wants to keep him im ok....but hed already be gone if it was my team
Both should be given an opportunity to atone.
They give wife beaters, dog torturers, and steroid cheaters second chances, but someone who posts some stupid shtein on Instabook shouldn't get one?
Come on.
to post something that vile in the middle of a gargantuan social uprising and just a couple years after a mass shouting at a synagogue while a White supremacist whose followers want Jews eliminated from the face of the earth gets you got in my mind...all things considered it's beyond the pale
dio mentioned the crazy right being able to use this to show a double standard if he isn't let go...that's true but farg that....It's much worse that DeSean posted something that they live by...it's gives a voice and legitimacy to those rabid thugs
he needs to go away
It's bad logic to argue that since "xxx" was forgiven for --insert unforgiveable speech here--so we should give Pimp a pass. Maybe "xxx" should never have been let off the hook?
that and the social climate and standards change
at no time would him having done this been anything but ugly but to do it now shows an unbelievable level of ignorance and callousness...and that's above and beyond giving him the benefit of the doubt that he doesn't believe in what he posted which is a massive stretch imo
I agree that what he posted was heinous. But is blacklisting a guy over unpopular speech really the way to go here, especially if he's expressed true contrition?
We as liberals shouldn't be out for blood in these circumstances. He should be given a chance at redemption. That's all I'm saying.
Who said blackballing?
I think it's reasonable as an employer to go ahead and release the guy who promotes literal Hitler on social media.
I'm sure the Redtails will give him a chance at redemption that he'd gladly take, and make the Eagles pay for....before getting hurt, going out for the season, and doing something else equally as stupid as this.
If you've got players calling Brees a stupid farg for saying he doesn't understand why kneeling isn't disrespecting the flag, at the very least there should be someone out there calling Jackson a farging idiot.

this is the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me
FTR i dont think desean is a bigot or hateful. hes an imbecile who let himself be led astray into farakahn's antisemitic nonsense. thats not an excuse but i just dont think he has hate in his heart for jews like kkkooper did for blacks. so in this instance i wouldnt fire him but i dont begrudge anyone for feeling that he should...except for the 'what about white history month' crowd that is using this to further their racist agenda.
I've seen more than a few of my black friends get borderline antisemitic with their conspiracy theories, haven't seen any of them straight up quote what they thought was a Hitler quote though.
I also think DeSean is kind of a huge idiot and legitimately might not have known how bad what he was posting was. He might be one of the few id actually believe that about.
I find it grossly paternalistic to think a 35 year old black guy isn't responsible for what he says because he's dumb.
There is no way any liberal would use such excuses about a white guy posting Hitler shtein, and guess what: 99% of white racists crude enough to post Hitler quotes or drop the n word in public are straight-up as dumb and easily led astray as DeSean. Especially if they play football.
Though for me, the guys who beat their girlfriends are on a level of awful far beyond anyone who runs their mouth with idiotic (even racist) speech. It's one thing to be a social media edgelord, it's another when you're choke slamming the mother of your kids.
It's so blatantly obvious that someone hired a PR flunky to compose his apology.
Everything he posts on social media reads like an eighth grader on Adderall scribbled it out. Then you read that and it's got more polish on it than the '68 Mustang in Jay's garage.
Whatever, though. Stupid is as stupid does.
its not that hes black or a football player....its that he plays for the eagles....if dez bryant had done this every eagle fan even some trumper eagle fans would be going nuts screaming get him out of the league
I don't think his apology was PR crafted, they probably wouldn't have let him say "it wasn't as bad as you guys think it was, I was just trying to educate people."
"..My intention was to uplift, unite and encourage our culture with positivity and light..." by (trying to) quote Adolph Hitler on Jews and Negroes.
Get this f'n guy away from the Eagles.
No way he wrote that either. Come on...

Tbf, a lot of white people actually learn racism and antisemitism from their family and people around them when they're growing up. I don't think too many black people are growing up in openly anti Semitic homes, outside of the extreme Muslim types, of which I don't believe was part of his upbringing.

God damn. Farrakhan is a cancer, will be assigned seating in the same section of hell as George Wallace.
All bigots don't matter.
The right has a legit point to complain that Jackson & Jackson are being let off easy, enjoying a double standard.
For real, a white dude praises Hitler or David Duke, he's not getting invited to be educated and given a pass for not knowing that Duke is a KKK farg.
But here we are.
I have some qualms about the cancel culture, not least because I feel myself subject to it....I'm ready to fire everyone who posts literal hitler or sing Farrakhan's songs....but I know wiser heads who urge patience and understanding. I have a black aunt who thought I was crazy to think Northram should resign following the blackface thing. If she can see something more complex than "remove," perhaps I'm too geeked up on internet outrage.
I don't know what's what.
Quoting Hitler and Farrakhan, getting to keep your jobs, while others are fired from theirs for doing no worse...example, the piece of shtein show writer for Tucker Carlson, who was just outed as a class A racist, sexist troll.
Fox News felt they needed to dump his ass, but Lurie is keeping the guys who quote Hitler and Farrakhan....
what a mess
Pretty sure most NFL players agree with Jackson or at least don't care enough to give a damn.
Bigger fish to fry and whatnot.
maybe I should look to Jason Avant for a decent take:
QuoteI agree wholeheartedly with the @philadelphiaeagles! We all have to educate ourselves before we make shipwreck with our words. Being mindful, aware, and accommodating to our neighbors is what unity is made of! Our Jewish communities have endured devastating Anti-Semitic injustices in this country and abroad. The Holocaust alone should warrant us to never quote hitler. @0ne0fone words were unjustifiable and fireable! However, I'm happy that @philadelphiaeagles extended the same mercy that they extended to @rileycooper_14 . I can say that in both situations neither guy had a history of racism/anti-semitism. Coop learned his lesson and DJ will learn his. I remembered speaking to the team and saying, We will all need forgiveness one day and let's start with Coop. It's Desean today, tomorrow it maybe me, and you next week. To me it's easier when it's not a repeat offender. Ultimately, to my Jewish brothers and sisters, I stand with you against the evil this world throws your way! May G*D bless you! Forgive me if I've trivialized your pain in anyway and thanks for reaching out today! #truth #flyeaglesfly #gobirds #footinmouth #endracism

I was at that game. Right after Hurricane Ike hit us. They should have won that. Driving to win and 5 threw a pick if I recall. Or got sacked. One of the two.
It was also the closest I have come to getting into a fight at a sporting event. I was sitting with my best friend, a Cowboys fan, and we're three rows from the top. At the top row is the belligerently drunk Cowboys fan just going in on me for wearing Eagles stuff. I ignored him for most of the pre-game and then he started walking down to me to fight after I finally said something. I told the security guard standing there if he came down to me I was throwing him down the stairs so if he wanted to prevent that he should step in. Thankfully he did and I didn't have to send the fool head over heals down the stairs and end up in a brawl.
it was a classic donovan game
made a few plays early, was helped to some points by the defense. down 4, couple minutes left, needs to go and win the game and he poops his pants. really bad sack to ware was the icer.

Even then. I prefer to see dogshtein JJAW than brokedown Pimp, in the hope it will accelerate his dismissal.
Eagles say DeSean volunteered to field the punt on which he was injured by a late hit.
Fipp said Jackson approached him asking to be put in. "Just a really unselfish football player trying to do anything he could..." Fipp said, presumably with a straight face.
Uh, it was actually the opposite, coach. Jackson had visions of improving his brand by stinging the Giants on a punt return again. Zero chance he's begging to return a punt against Pittsburgh or Baltimore.
It was Fipp's job to say "no."
So now we have Jackson on IR--may he please stay there permanently--and Fipp selling us a story that he's some kind of hero, so we aren't talking about what a dumbass idea it was to let the ancient, injury prone WR take the punt.
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/10/28/desean-jackson-volunteered-for-punt-return-which-led-to-injury/
when did you turn into the eagles fan version of qanon?
Gotcha! You admit I'm an Eagles fan! Oh, happy day!
Fipps should have said "no." Jackson should slink away to the local Black Israelites study group, and bring his "My Hitler" workbook.
pimp at age 33 and under a brand new three year deal that pays him 7 million next year wanting to go in so he could score on a punt return (but only against the giants) in order to get a new deal next year might be the hottest sports take ive ever seen anywhere
Who said anything about a new deal? He just wants to up his brand as the giant killer.
thats even more bonkers
Nah. After football, this guy has nothing. If he couldn've PRed the Giants again, it would have been a branding coup...he'd be able to charge 50% more for autograpghs and shtein...trying to get in at PR on that kick was anything but selfless
I know you have issues with him and his anti-Semitic bullshtein is indeed appalling, but this is really out there, Dio.
Whatever though. We've seen the last of him anyway.
I hope so.
Selfless and Desean Jackson don't go to the same family reunion.
Next level cynicism there, Dio.
I accept your compliment, sir. Spoken like a true gentleman.
I think we might be overlooking the obvious idea that maybe he likes winning and wanted to win a game.
Likes winning and Philadelphia Eagles don't go to the same family reunion.
Nobody should be going to family reunions right now anyway.
