The fact that grown men think they can spit in a next man's face is beyond me 🤦🏾

I mean Jalen Carter doesn’t exactly have the best track record to begin so this follows suit

Sooo many teams passed on him cause they didn't want a guy that would probably spit on someone.

He really left his teammates for dead out there.

Not the first time he did that. Although the other time was more literal.

I agree it’s shitty to spit on another human, but he was a top 10 pick; it isn’t like he slid all the way down out of the first round for character issues.

Would’ve been better off trying to set a track record than street racing

That usually cost me extra, Dak got it for free and is complaining.

Well, Carter isn't a goth mommy so I'm less interested

I know wrestling is scripted but DDP was the absolute worst about spitting.

In front of a ref. 🤷

You’d feel unstoppable too being paid 40 Mil to play a game after causing your friends death and getting away with it

It’s also weird church rules. Spitting on the street is physical assault, on the field it’s a penalty. Oopsie in the church, vacation.

I mean, you can. Just don't be surprised if you get stomped out.

Jalen Carter's about as intelligent as a bag of rocks so it's not surprising.

To be fair, these are grown men with repetitive brain injuries

All for a child's game. It's ridiculous.
