STEVEN CROWDER (HOST): So, apparently this [Jon] Gruden character also said [NFL Commissioner Roger] Goodell should not have pressured former Rams coach Jeff Fisher to, quote, “draft queers," in reference to [former NFL player] Michael Sam. Apparently, so look he criticized President Obama during his reelection campaign, referred to Joe Biden as a nervous, clueless pussy. Look, this is a perfect example —
DAVE LANDAU (CO-HOST): So he's right?
GARRETT MORRISON (CO-HOST): And that last one was right.
CROWDER: No, none of this — nothing that I have read here is offensive or fireable.
MORRISON: No.
CROWDER: To be clear, like, are we all going to all — this is the issue is people — it's not that people are hypocrites. I'm a Christian and I just quoted words that you'd be like, OK, you shouldn't say those naughty words. And I understand it, right? But I am quoting this. The point is, everyone's a hypocrite. But if people out there act as though they're so offended at the sound — “oh, oh he called someone a pussy? Why I never." No, yes you would, ever, and you have, OK? Let's stop acting like we've never called someone a clueless pussy.
