Phil Anselmo gives his thoughts on bountygate (1 Viewer)

[insidejob]

Let's not make this thread about profanity, folks.

1) If you prefer not to use the kind of language that Anselmo uses, then it's cool. It just means this thread is not for you. I imagine that some (not all) who are puzzled about why we like this video are not from the generation of folks who grew up with Pantera and may not understand what this means to us. Some of us care what a celebrity (with a great local reputation, mind you) has to say on a matter that is so important us. No need to question our taste or assume that we can't make logical arguments just because cursing is pretty mundane to us.

2) If you think a commenter is being too preachy and uptight about profanity, then no need insult them. As stated above, this thread is not meant for them. They are probably great folks who just do not happen to identify with a generation of folks who find cursing to be part of their everyday patois. Let it go, in other words.

So let's not continue this argument back and forth about the merits of criticizing Bountygate with use of profanity. We get it: some of us hate cursing, and some of us embrace it. To each his own. If you choose to participate in this thread, why not focus on the points that Anselmo made, such as what he said about his first-hand knowledge about the vendetta against Payton?

But it appears that Goodell hates cursing and strong language. That is the substance of bountygate, isn't it? Nothing more has been proven than some foul ******* language in team meetings.

Main quotes of interest:

I've got it on better word than anyone...I KNOW players on the **** team, and this is a PERSONAL vendetta against Sean Payton, between him and Roger Goodell. And Goodell - I'm gonna tell you what - America stare hard at this **** ******. He is the cop that will pull you over and take you to jail just because he can.

He goes on from there to say more inflammatory things about Goodell's character, most I which I cannot quote in this forum.

Then, he goes on about his support for Vilma's lawsuit because he wants to see the evidence come to light, evidence that he believes is just heresay.

Well, the owners voted that way, and they gave him that dictatorship. And that, I tell you what, that goes out the window with the Vilma suit. It's a PERSONAL suit because the media, via the NFL, made Vilma the poster boy of this bounty thing. Sports Illustrated has Jonathan Vilma on the cover, and it says 'Bounty Culture.'

Then he concludes with some choices words for Peter King, most of which cannot be quoted in this forum. He ends with this message for King:

You're a hack.

I seen Pantera when I was about 19 years old, shortly before they broke up and it was easily the most violent show I ever seen in my life, and I can tell you from first hand experience, Phil is one of the biggest scum bags on earth. "I'm gonna walk off stage if you guys don't start beating your heads in!" his opinion means ZERO to me. Dime was an amazing guitar player, but Phil pretty much ruined that show for me. He's not even a football player, go back to screaming in your new crappy band instead of trying to sound like a know it all, and BTW you still ruined Pantera with your crappy attitude and me first personality.

Whatever you say, buddy. I grew up 2 blocks from where he lived in Lakeview and hung out with him, his band, people from Crowbar and Down, and you have absolutely ZERO idea what you are talking about.

Glad you seen Pantera when you was 19 and hated it.

Guess we won't see Down during the half time show now
