Why am I not surprised by this?

From ESPN, Breaking:

Gruden emailed Allen that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell should not have pressured then-Rams coach Jeff Fisher to draft "queers," referring to former defensive end Michael Sam, a gay player drafted in 2014, according to The Times. The Times also reported that Gruden used an anti-gay slur in several instances while referring to Goodell, and used offensive language to describe some owners, coaches and media members who cover the league.

Gruden also denounced the emergence of women as referees in his emails, according to The Times, and said that Eric Reid, who kneeled during the national anthem to protest racial injustice, should be fired.

@TomPelissero: Source: Jon Gruden just informed his staff that he plans to resign as #Raiders coach.

Because of this…

@nytimes: Breaking News: The NFL coach Jon Gruden used misogynistic and homophobic language for years, a review of his emails shows. He denounced the emergence of women referees, the drafting of a gay player and the tolerance of protests during the national anthem.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/1...-jon-gruden-say.html

Gruden is getting canned because of emails uncovered during league investigation of Dan Snyder and the WFT and the rampant sexual harassment and sexual misconduct there under Snyder and his hirelings.

Snyder and the WFT received no league discipline.

@AlbertBreer:  Also fascinating: How quickly the Gruden emails have become public, while the all aspects of the league’s investigation into Dan Snyder have remained completely private.

Lesson for everyone in the difference between the people who cash the checks, and those who write them.

Gruden called the league’s commissioner, Roger Goodell, a β€œfaggot” and a β€œclueless anti football pussy”

Gruden also criticized President Obama during his re-election campaign in 2012, as well as then-vice president Joe Biden, whom Gruden called a β€œnervous clueless pussy.”

But Gruden’s behavior was not limited to 2011. Gruden exchanged emails with Allen and other men that included photos of women wearing only bikini bottoms, including one photo of two Washington team cheerleaders
