One guy posts a reply to a fan(random fan? sports writer? YouTuber?) and suggests that he eats dick simply because he recommended that the Ravens let him walk and get the big payday he thinks he's deserved from someone else.
Another is filmed and posted by someone else. His reaction was to dirty play by his opponents and comments of "I hope you break your leg, Burrow" and I'm sure a bunch more that were probably worse. If they were chanting "Don't re-sign Burrow. Let him walk." and he had that reaction, childish for sure, but to say they are both comparable is quite a stretch.
I really don't care about either, but IMO we cannot clutch our pearls at one and applaud the other. In fact, I find that embarrassing.
Some are saying Lamar's was worse because it included a "homophobic" message. Yet the last time I saw where a male can put it "up his" would also require a homosexual act.
Then we have those saying Lamar's were worse because of venue. Any idea if there were any children of Karras when he shouted his profane, homosexual request.
Then we have those saying Lamar's are worse because a Titan player tried to hurt him. He didn't cuss out said player, he cussed out fans. At least Lamar returned his comments directly to the dude that tried to hurt him.
I'm not ready to make the leap others have and suggest the hypocrisy is due to skin color; I think it's more we love one person and hate the other.
