You think he’s the only one who feel that way?
I grew up being told the old saying “you have to give respect to earn respect.” Unfortunately, there are many adults who do not respect kids or their views and vice versa. To be honest, if someone older (or younger) than me is showing me or my views/opinions disrespect, it will be very difficult for me to respect theirs.
Before anyone gets it twisted, I’m NOT saying that’s the case here. But, it’s very difficult for me to give someone respect who doesn’t give me the same respect in return. For my elders to get my respect, they also have to respect me. Just my opinion.
No, they haven’t responded and prob best that they don’t, but I can promise you the bulk of Rian’s teammates feel the same as him on this subject.
Again, he said Herschel sounded like a fool.
Actually, it is ok to have a different opinion. The Dawgvent is full of people who should have been aborted, we will all get through this, God will see to it!!
Being good or bad at football does not mean that they can’t have their opinions both heard and criticized.
This is the part I think is tough for many. On the field, the man was a beast. Perhaps the best ever. Away from the field is where the other part comes into play. And while it's absolutely undisputable that he's lived a very good life and could be a role model for many. That doesn't mean that he's without faults off the field. He is not a good spokesman for those struggling. So while he says they don't speak for him, he certainly doesn't speak for them.
53 but feel much older somedays. If I would have called my dad a fool he would have busted my arse. Rian Davis would probably only refer to 34 as a fool from behind a keyboard.LOL That’s when you know you’re old as shit. That latter phrase has been said for centuries.
The beauty of all of this is the people that are adamantly defending Herschel are the same ones that...never mind.
I’m 48 and half way to 49. No reason to act ancient.
He wasn’t talking to his dad.
Nobody wants to challenge Herschel to a physical fight. C'mon. That's not what any of this is about. But, I bet he would tell him to his face that he disagrees with him in a way where he would know he thinks he sounds like a fool.
Don’t think Herschel would refer to Davis as a fool because he disagreed with him! Some people today believe that you are not allowed to disagree with a certain position! If so, you are a bigot, racist.... etc if it does not align with there narrative!
Let me preface by saying (A) I may be drunk and (B) I love Herschel. His story of how he exercised to change his body/life inspired me as much as any person’s story I’ve heard. I actually used his story with students while teaching Wellness in TN. Students ate it up. F UT.
But Herschel after his career speaking on multiple (no pun intended) views? And then his son????????
Game on, bruh.
My spelling while drinking is next level, by the way.
I’m going with yes, you are drunk haha. But yeah I hear ya
You're reaching.... Fool is a pretty loaded word to use in any context.

So if Bill Shanks says, "Man, did y'all hear Anthony Dasher on here yesterday talking about the QB situation? He sounded like a damn fool.", you'd say Bill is just disagreeing with you and not actually calling you a fool, correct?
Good. Now go and tell him and the other teammates who feel the same way this. Let us know how that turns out. I don't think you folks realize how bad this makes us look to our opponents and recruits. Keep on posting this stuff about the players and see that talent base dry up fast. Be mindful that all it takes is for someone to dole out $9.99 and they can come on here and screenshot all of this talk about the players. So, keep it up.
It shouldn't...but the President does it all the time???
Just 7 beers but in the heat all afternoon smoking meats. Damn. Hit me.
People call me a fool a lotSo if Bill Shanks says, "Man, did y'all hear Anthony Dasher on here yesterday talking about the QB situation? He sounded like a damn fool.", you'd say Bill is just disagreeing with you and not actually calling you a fool, correct?
and it doesn’t bother me. But yes, I know Bill well enough that he wouldn’t be calling me that personally
He didn’t have to say he sounded like a fool, it hurts his point of view. But he has a right to his opinion and that should be respected
The beauty of all of this is the people that are adamantly defending Herschel are the same ones that...never mind.
Funny nobody in the mob is telling Herschel to shut up and dribble
I love you Dash. You're probably one of the very few on here who can have a different political belief and not show it in your stories or posts. You truly seem to see all sides and know how to deal with it. Others don't. Thank you for being you!
The infestation of exclamation points in your post does not make your point more viable.
You said. “Entitled”. Respect is earned, not demanded.
Dash has swag. I saw it in that gif someone posted awhile back...
It hurt his pov to who? Those who disagree with it would blast him anyway. That didn't change a thing here. They either agree with him or they don't. And on this board, we know most don't agree with him.
One can disagree without namecalling and/or bullying the other person.
Problem with America right now is the educators have decided there is only one way to think and anyone who thinks independently needs to be censored and ostracized. Truly a dangerous time to be alive in many ways.
Trust me I can hold my own. I just like the old school way of live. Herschel offered an opinion then Davis calls him a fool. Once again, I don't think he would disrespect him to his face. JMO
I don’t know where to start.
By the way, he said it’s a good idea to wear masks...yesterday.
Everyone. Namecalling is the first sign you don't have anything pertinent to say and are basically giving up on your own argument and conceding the debate ....

Not everyone is one side or the other. There are plenty of people who can see both sides of an opinion
