- Riley Cooper #14 of the Philadelphia Eagles (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
With the NFL starting their season with the Hall
of Fame game Sunday much of the talk the last couple of days has been about Philadelphia Eagle wide receiver Riley Cooper using in my opinion mean hateful words to describe a person of color. I'm so sorry for all those he offended. I hate that in 2013 that word is still used. We are all 1 person. We all need to start getting along and STOP THE HATE!
Update: @ESPNSCalerts: SportsCenter - Eagles WR Riley Cooper excused from team activities; seeking counseling after using racial slur http://t.co/OP3kiRFj2W

Final Thoughts:
In today's final thoughts instead of talking about each show I want to address a couple of things and because its Friday I want to end on a positive note. So with that said as a follow up to my lead about Riley Cooper. I really hope as a person can recover from this but I don't think he can. What he did is in my opinion unforgettable offense. I'm glad the Eagles have taken the steps to remove him from the team and I hope he doesn't come back. I have no respect for people who hate and use that word.
Positive thought: The story Cody brought to Good Day Sacramento today about young Jake is awesome. I encourage all readers to get
behind this causes and go to http://t.co/I2gUz9UELs to donate $5 $10 etc. to get this amazing kid to France to compete in the event he loves so much. I know that collectively we the people can do this. If you can't donate money at least copy the link and share it on Facebook, twitter, Google+, Instagram MySpace if you use it or even as a part of your own blogs. Let's do it and do it big for Jake.
Have a great Friday and I will see you on the weekend.
