Of course. But I think some of us have been in situations (new work place or meeting new fam of friends) where we're like "What....the...f**k is going on around here".. with people who've worked there for a long time stare right into your eyes like "everything is fiiine, please don't leave" lol.

YET the Head Coach was irresponsible and got in some weird accident that they allowed to get unnecessarily controversial... then the owner did some crazy s**t and is all over national news in an orange jumpsuit. And I'm sure the youngster somehow got info that they are on a team with a coach that did a line of coke on video. Not to mention those huge substation transformers everyone talks about towering over the practice field.
If EVER there was a situation of "Do as we SAY....Not as we DO! K..thx".... this is it! THANK GOD we have legit team leaders, who will keep everything together this season.
I think the rookies are happy to be in the NFL, will laugh off the owner situation, and don't give 2 effs about the other nonsense.

Warner kind of answered that question. If anything they're probably thinking I'm glad is wasn't me. There isn't any indication that this sting was out to get Jed. It looks like he was just the guy that got caught.

Blessing in disguise for young John Edward. Again it could have been a dangerous situation, even at 9am in the morning. People are stupid as s**t now a days. End up killing someone without even originally planning it, over peanuts. Or I should say there are waaaaay more people that are stupid as s**t now a days.

It's not really a big deal like that. If you work at a company that isnt public, your CEO getting into a scandal doesn't really affect you as a worker. You're still expected to do your job and continue to work on your projects and meet your deadlines. It's not like everyone stops working and thinks about the CEO the entire time. Like sure there's memes and "have you heard" and needling and whatever, but its not really directly affecting their jobs.
There are probably dozens of things rookies are far more concerned with. Staying on the roster, if getting cut which team will pick them up and what city they will need to move to, staying healthy, perfecting the knowledge of playbook, the Raiders game, the flight to Australia, their first NFL game, etc.
