Raiders Coach Jon Gruden resigns following misogynistic, racist, and homophobic emails
first reported that the coach used a racial trope in an email from 2011 describing executive director of thePlayers Association DeMaurice Smith, who is Black, to Bruce Allen, then-president of the franchise now called the Washington Football Team, which allegedly stated: “Dumboriss Smith has lips the size of michellin tires.” Gruden, who was a broadcaster for ESPN at that time, claimed he did not recall penning the email, but apologized for the language.
Over the past several months, the league has been reviewing emails, more than 650,000 in all, in connection to its investigation into workplace misconduct in connection to the Washington Football Team. This particular email along with others was shared with commissioner Roger Goodell. “The email from Jon Gruden denigrating DeMaurice Smith is appalling, abhorrent and wholly contrary to the NFL’s values,” the NFL said in a statement.
Additionally, he denigrated women, sharing photos of women only in bikini bottoms, and he lambasted the employment of female referees. His ire spread to emails about President Obama during his reelection campaign and then vice-president Biden, whom he referred to as a “nervous clueless pussy.”
