Are they the same person. Does that explain anything?
Eagles player ejected for spitting Stacy Abrams nowhere to be seen

- Start date
I saw it happen and now waiting to see what the NFL says. Ejection for the game is NOT enough, there is NO excuse for behavior like that from a grown man.
OP
Grown. Physically maybe but....
What would be the reaction of the NFL be if a white player spit on a black player?
It SHOULD make no difference.
Rude behavior = rude behavior.
When the Eagles drafted this player, it was well know that he had character issues and yet they took him anyway. Reap...sow...
I would guess pretty much every player in the NFL has led an entitled life ever since they first engaged in any athletic endeavor. Most if not all of them were likely seen as about the best football player in the history of their high school, or town, or county, etc. and handled with kid gloves as they moved into college football, and then were drafted into the NFL. People fawning over them, wanting to be part of their celebrity circle, maybe sharing in the big bucks, etc. and certainly never saying "no" to them. That a star player in the NFL could behave like this and assume he will get away with it does not surprise me. What does surprise me is how many of these superb athletes are actually (at least seemingly) decent and well behaved men despite the money and adulation that they receive as NFL players.
Geesh, you want to keep the young'uns from feelings of superiority or inferiority ban sports entirely. After all one's feelings might be hurt if chosen last (can't have those uninclusive drafts). And someone might, gasp, lose.
Then these racist , entitled and disrespectful children won't have a venue to act out in.

There's a counter-narrative going around that Dak Prescott baited him beforehand, but it was still a classless response from a, frankly, classless team. Punky deserves the next two games off and a fine.
Although it did the impossible: That act turned me into a Cowboys fan, at least for one night.
And I can't remember the last time that a team lost two players - one to ejection, and another to a horrible knee injury - before the first snap the way the Iggles did the other night.
