((HT: CSNPhilly))
First, here's the apology...
Let's work backwards...
Cooper was at a Kenny Chesney concert and had a run in with security...
((HT: CrossingBroad))
The first half the HQ can't make out, but the second half has a "hard -er" and not a "soft -a" where that word is concerned...
Which means there is no term of affection used here at the concert...
Cooper admitted he was fined for his remarks by he team and the league wasn't too fond of his shenanigans either:
"The NFL stands for diversity and inclusion. Comments like this are wrong, offensive, and unacceptable."
And here's the statement from Eagles Chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie's statement:
“We are shocked and appalled by Riley Cooper’s words. This sort of behavior or attitude from anyone has no role in a civil society. He has accepted responsibility for his words and his actions. He has been fined for this incident.“
PM UPDATE: Marcus Vick, who the HQ has no idea what he's doing these days, decided to put a bounty out on Cooper when all of this went public...
"Hey I'm putting a bounty on Riley's head. 1k to the first Free Safety or Strong safety that light his (expletive) up! Wake him up please...."
Marcus has since deleted his Tweet...
But, to his credit, brother Michael came out and said that he didn't agree with his brother's assessment:
Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reported that Michael Vick said, "I don't agree with what my brother is saying."
