My stance will always be: Why is it anyone else's business what anyone does? Want to get married and have kids? Great! No one should care. Want to have a career? Great! No one should care. Maybe want to have both a career and a family? Great! No one should care. I see so many people get upset over someone else's choices in life, and it confuses me as to why it should matter. -

That's the key concept. For the people calling for him to be cut, it's not enough to simply disagree with him. It's not enough to fight bad ideas with better ideas. They must also destroy his career. I don't agree with his views, but at the same time, I don't want to see him cut because I think that rewards the extremists who want to subject everyone to an ideological purity test as a precondition for participation in society. -

There are 6 games that they ought to win: Bears, Steelers, Vikings, Jets, Patriots, Giants. There are 3 games they will absolutely lose: at Texans, Lions, Bills. Possible to win both home and away vs Titans, and split with the other divisional teams. I think the season comes down to 4 games: home opener vs Texans, at Broncos, home vs Dolphins, and season ending home vs Jags. For both total wins and tie breakers. I predict 10 wins and a playoff berth. Barely. -
Bears went 7-6 over their last 13 games last season. They have a top 5 defense. And they added Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze to their WR group. I know Caleb is a rookie, but he's the best QB prospect in recent years. They should be pretty good.

Of course, I'm never compelled to instantly share my opinion on such matters of whether he is right or wrong...since nobody cares what anybody's opinion is. I look at it from the perspective of an objective observer of how controversies get started and how the NFL gets involved. I believe Butker is guilty of giving a speech to a Christian based college that speaks to traditional values.. Go figure...maybe he tailored the speech to his audience and not the general public? But the fact that he said it with a microphone meant it got picked up by the general public, and so now it must be shouted down by those who probably chose to not attend a Christian college to begin with. Weird that they feel compelled to get involved. If I read his words correctly, what Butker actually said (to women in a Christian college) is that most of you will choose to get married and have kids, And that when you do, that should be the most important thing in your life. He then praised his wife for how she chose to do it. Not much different than Lou Holtz telling men that when you become a father, the most important thing is to show your children's mother how much you love her. Wow, what controversy, what extremism. That it might be okay to be devoted ONLY to your family and God, and to choose to not be devoted to an Employer and the correct Social Narratives. I think if the NFL says anything, it should support its player against attacks by those who simply disagree with an opinion, instead of taking sides in the opinion. After all, Butker was not wearing an NFL uniform, or representing the NFL in any capacity...and it pretty obvious he wasn't. I guess the NFL is still scared of potential shakedowns and must quickly issue a statement telling the public how much they are on the correct side of things in case there is the slightest hint that silence implies they aren't. But its interesting to see that Butker's Jersey sales have increased dramatically. Maybe the NFL should donate the money to women's causes since it can't possibly want to be tainted with money from such horrible and unpopular ideas.
