Talk about a double standard

Dolphins have had a bad run in the press since the tank for tua year. They’re an easy target at this point, plus it was prime time game.

Not trying to start **** but does anyone think the tua hate has anything to do with him being openly religious?

I still want to know why he was ruled out so early.
 
What makes it ****ed up is that fact it’s only been 4 days and he’s still on concussion protocol. I thought they weren’t allowed to participate in any football activity under that protocol. He couldn’t have passed the 3rd stage of that protocol already with that type of concussion.

It's okay though. He put on a red jersey.

Actually, while I don't think the majority of people hold it against him, there are definitely some. I saw a guy on Facebook just the other day "thrilled" that Tua was hurt so he could stop "shoving his religion down everyone's throat with his eye crosses". Omar Kelly referred to him as a weirdo, but did not tie that to his faith, directly. Still, Tua is a pretty humble and modest guy that seems to value faith and family above notoriety and ego. I'm sure many in the sports world would find that weird, and there is no denying that Tua's faith plays a large role in his overall personality. I also think for a growing number of people in this world, they just can't stand anyone that doesn't think or believe just like them.
 
Like I said the other day. The Dolphins are a good team now and people just can’t accept it. They don't believe the Dolphins can be good so they have to find something wrong with anything the team does. Let's face it guys, it's us against the world.

That's exactly where I like to be. Let everyone doubt, then shock the world!

Oh... I thought he paints his initials on his face ...

thought I read somewhere it started back in high school ... they said he was smaller when compared to other Qb's and kept getting put in the kicker's meetings so he did it to be readily identified and it just stuck as a pregame ritual... :chuckle:

Just kidding guys.... calm down

This is the type of **** that racks my brain.
The guy literally said he felt paralyzed for a few seconds yet 4 days later he’s still on concussion protocol running around catching footballs. Where’s the outrage?

Factor in J.J. Watt playing days after having his heart shocked back into rhythm, Joe Burrow’s concussion admission and Cameron Brate — and all this outrage over Tua seems disingenuous and like selective prosecution.

It’s really quite impossible to take these people seriously anymore.
