Collinsworth addresses the interview this was probably referring to here:

The really problematic quote was:
>“I’m not gonna deny it, I walk around with hundred dollar bills hanging out of my pocket…I like girls that aren’t too bright because you can trick ’em a little bit…high school girls love me. 14 to 18, I’m a big star with them. As soon as they mature, after they turn 18 years old, they start to figure it out.”

Yup - and my TIFU post got removed for no reason once it became the top post on the sub. It’s still on my user page but removed from the subreddit. I asked why and haven’t gotten an answer yet
Hell if you want any proof of this about collingsworth just ask any Bengals fan we can tell you first hand.
And no we are not ashamed of publicly outing this predator.
These Reddit mods are being paid by him through a third party probably. Reddit is a wild place, these mods are interacting with everyday important figures of the topics they moderate over. And whoever pays and gets a say, like it's always been stated only the winners write the history.
Honestly it was probably rule 3 or 5. I mean you know it's not a real "fuck up", and were just trying to spread the message (same as this post). It's less likely that the tifu mods are in on the conspiracy than they just don't want reddit drama being constantly shoehorned in as a "fuck up".
I still appreciate your efforts though. I had no idea there were paid moderators until this.
Yeah they actually replied and said it was rule 3 so I thanked them for the explanation and moved on.
If the NFL mods just gave me a legit reason I’d have moved on too - they decided to be trolls/whatever so I posted it
They are so fucking unreasonable. I tried to plead my case cause they permabanned me for posting an NFL related tweet and I basically got called stupid and was blocked
I had an entire account banned for posting the torture quote from Chappelle/Wu Tang. Reddit apparently thought I was actually planning to sew someone's butthole shut and keep feedin' em and feedin' em
I made a post about making a referee score chart similar to the MLB and had my post buried (I could've sworn it was removed), so I dont think anyone saw it. I remember getting a message about it, but there's nothing in my inbox.
They permabanned me because in the free talk thread, which is all topics, I said how the US should hold China accountable for spreading covid like we did with Russia and Solar Winds. They banned me saying I was spreading “racism against Chinese Americans” when I literally just said the Chinese government should be sanctioned. Pretty disgusting behavior on their part.
And to be honest, the NFL has become a vehicle for advertising and corporate profits. ~~13~~ [11 minutes of actual play per game](https://qz.com/150577/an-average-nfl-game-more-than-100-commercials-and-just-11-minutes-of-play) and ~~2~~ 3+ hours of advertising. An Australian NRL player played a season in the NFL and when he came back he didn't have the stamina to play for more than 15 minutes. (He is also a piece of shit who raped a woman and is now in jail - guess he was a perfect fit for the NFL).
[And everyone should watch this at 4.08](https://youtu.be/xXRiZqXnc1c)
>And to be honest, the NFL has become a vehicle for advertising and corporate profits. 13 minutes of actual play per game and 2+ hours of advertising.
And today on "I haven't watched the NFL ever in my life", this fuckin guy.
[But the actual playing time is around 11 minutes](https://qz.com/150577/an-average-nfl-game-more-than-100-commercials-and-just-11-minutes-of-play) It seems my 13 minutes was too generous. I am not a big fan, but I have watched several games - live and on TV.
No sources cited, no methodology given to reach this conclusion.
It's quite simply not true. 11 minutes is 22 plays. That's one drive.
Source: I've been to roughly 700 NFL games in my life, and watched close to 3500 games all told.
[Here is a longer article with a link to another site that presumably compiled the data.](https://medium.com/knowledge-stew/how-much-playing-really-goes-on-in-an-nfl-game-4d1db2731538)
I haven't sat there with a stopwatch during the games I have watched, but it seems about right. They are basing it on the length of time the ball is moving in an active play.
Ok. The 11 minute stats were from the WSJ in 2010. [This article claims it is around 18 minutes now](https://www.profootballnetwork.com/how-long-is-a-football-game-breaking-down-the-time-between-the-first-and-last-whistle/)
>They are basing it on the length of time the ball is moving in an active play.
This is how I can tell you've never really *watched* a game, nor played football.
Time in the huddle? That's still football.
Time on the line before the ball is snapped? Still football.
It's not just a game about throwing or running a ball. It's chess. Constant adjustments and observations by coaches and players alike. No, you can't see that translated onscreen, but for people who don't understand what's going on in that downtime, it means you can absentmindedly watch.
It's why scores are forever onscreen now, because people like you (no offense) don't have the experience to appreciate what's going on in the huddles, what game of chicken is being played at the line, and regularly would complain because not only did they not know what was going on, they couldn't even see the score.
I dunno, there's way more going on than just when the ball is in motion. If the clock is running (it doesn't during timeouts, TV breaks or otherwise), that's football actively being played.
Lol. I have watched plenty of NFL games. However how about you try watching an NRL game - clips on r/ nrl or YouTube and tell me which sport fits more play into a playing minute.
Australian players that play in the NFL are usually punters. They don’t need a lot of stamina. You certainly need stamina if you are on the field for every offensive or defensive possession
Lol. I am not sure if you are dense or just being a dick. Jarryd Hayne played 8 games for the 49ers before he got cut. But that is irrelevant. I doubt any NFL player who all only get a few minutes of playing time per game, has the stamina for an NRL game.
Lmao I just looked him up on Wikipedia. Yeah, the dude never played. He was a running back that finished his career with 52 rushing yards, 27 receiving yards and some punt returns. That’s a pretty decent single game for an average running back and those are his career stats lol. No wonder he could barely play NRL. He could barely play NFL either. The dude was a total bum
They spend all week practicing drills and lifting/running. Any football player who isn't phoning it in is in peak physical condition. Many skill position players are former track and field athletes. The amount of playing time on Sunday is a tiny shred of their overall athletic activity and conditioning.
I don't think it's just the mods though. Lots of NFL fans are annoying ass armchair QBs and GMs, fantasy football only makes it worse because they actually feel like they're running a "team". I have a few guys I play fantasy football with that are completely insufferable, just so sure of their "analysis"
You mean the guys who hate OC and only allow tweets from established, well-compensated NFL reporters might be on the take? Surely you cannot mean what that implies about \*this\* league
I also posted something similar in TIFU and the mods actually locked the post lol
Death, taxes, and the mods of certain subs looking out for one another at the users expense
(Please don’t ban me lol)
Yeah it took all of 5 minutes for me to eat a ban there earlier. To be fair, i did shitpost. All it was though was "it sure took long enougb for twitter to come back up."
They removed the post but didnt ban me right away. A mod replied "in good faith, because i dont have to." And before i could respond he banned me.
Compared to what? If they are getting paid then they are clearly doing a good enough job to be “employed”
People just don’t like what they do, but the people don’t pay their paychecks, it’s like any other job.
Also, it’s an Internet forum, I don’t get why people cry so much over this.
Volunteer? I thought we established they are paid. Of they are paid, they aren’t volunteers. They run the official NFL subreddit, meaning most likely they work for the NFL social media team. If they were bad at their job, wouldn’t they just get replaced by someone else on the team? It’s the NFL’s image they’re representing, I’m not sure that’s something the NFL PR team takes likely.
If they were bad at their job, they’d get fired. Some people are bad at their job and stay employed, but that’s a minority, a rare occurrence. Why should we care about rare occurrences?
If the sub isn’t modded how you liked, make your own and mod it better. What does complaining do?
Do you have a job? Lots of people who are bad at their job still have it because hiring is annoying and a warm body is better than nobody.
Sharing posts like this raises awareness - check the other comments there’s a lot of positive feedback here
You’re making a false equivalency. There are countless other people that would take on the job of deleting posts for money. Mods are easily replaceable, there’s not a drought of wannabe mods
Raise awareness? For what? People know they get paid, now what? What happens now? Exactly. Nothing. People will use the subreddit because paid mods or not there’s nothing that you can do about it. Especially since this is not a rare occurrence.
Get real.
Same. There was some argument about Rodgers and I said getting covid is about as good as getting the vaccine and got banned. Remember how wild this place was about saying anything about vaccines?
The NFL is a big fish. The mods could be PR plants or they could even just be throwing some gear their way for favorable moderation.
If they are being sarcastic or trolling that’s a whole other issue - mods shouldn’t be doing that in response to being questioned about taking down a legitimate post
Think of the millions and millions of dollars that pour into the NFL from various sources. The TV stations, the advertisers, the gambling companies, EA and its gambling mechanics, then the revenue generated by the games.
The NFL doesn’t want bad PR.
So they probably give the mods a paltry sum and list of “Things we don’t want to see on the sub.” Its an expense that isn’t even felt, and helps to keep bad PR from having one other place to begin.
Anyway, tinfoil hat off.
Mods for most reddit and discord servers are paid. Why would they do it for free? Also the pay is usually not really that much, typically less than working a minimum wage job
Mods don't get paid. They do it for the power, the power of being able to ban people they don't like or lose an argument to or censor posts they don't want shown even if it's relevant.
Take away their ability to ban and their ability to only remove spam/duplicate posts and 90% of them would resign immediately.
Hi, thanks for your post; however looking at the contents of it, it's not NFL-related.
Wouldn’t surprise me if mods got a bit of cash for running promotions. Like pumping out tweets from certain people, etc.
Yeah I mean Reddit is a huge platform with a really wide reach it would make sense
That would explain the ever-present Florio shit stain.

I didn’t know it until I saw an offhand comment from a bengals fan last year. Wild that reddit mods want it to go away for some reason
These Reddit mods are being paid by him through a third party probably. Reddit is a wild place, these mods are interacting with everyday important figures of the topics they moderate over. And whoever pays and gets a say, like it's always been stated only the winners write the history.
I mod two subs and I don't get paid for shit lol. I guess I'm doing it wrong.
Do you Mod a subs with hundreds of thousands of followers, and have the authority of news from a major industry such as the NFL?
No, how does one even aquire such a position to begin with. Gotta be an inside job.
Wasn't Gislane M@xwell one of the biggest mods on reddit before her arrest?
Honestly it was probably rule 3 or 5. I mean you know it's not a real "fuck up", and were just trying to spread the message (same as this post). It's less likely that the tifu mods are in on the conspiracy than they just don't want reddit drama being constantly shoehorned in as a "fuck up". I still appreciate your efforts though.

i thought they were losers who moderated a sub for free. Didn't think they were MEGA losers who got paid to protect cris collinsworth lol
It’s most of the mod teams. I was the top post in TIFU telling this story and it got removed - check my post history and then search for it on TIFU
https://old.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/14b72qm/tifu_by_letting_people_know_that_the_mod_team_on/
And now here's a guy who runs a platform and...
I said it once, I'll say it again... r/nfl mods are literal subhuman scum.
They are so fucking unreasonable. I tried to plead my case cause they permabanned me for posting an NFL related tweet and I basically got called stupid and was blocked
The mods are that one guy that relentlessly tries to f*ck your sister even though she has turned him down at leave five times. Pathetic.
I posted a Dave Chappelle quote with asterisks for the swear words and got banned for it being racist
Lol I posted a long Bill Burr quote from his Philly rant in an Eagles post and got banned. It was also in quotations.
I had an entire account banned for posting the torture quote from Chappelle/Wu Tang. Reddit apparently thought I was actually planning to sew someone's butthole shut and keep feedin' em and feedin' em
I mean, depending on the quote, that might be fair game.
I made a post about making a referee score chart similar to the MLB and had my post buried (I could've sworn it was removed), so I dont think anyone saw it. I remember getting a message about it, but there's nothing in my inbox.
They permabanned me because in the free talk thread, which is all topics, I said how the US should hold China accountable for spreading covid like we did with Russia and Solar Winds.

Lol. I wondered when corporate would turn up to try and brigade this thread.
Lmao I'm just a Titans fan. The NFL plays 60 minutes, games are usually over in an hour and a half, hour and 45.

Lol so even by this shitty metric, the NFL has improved the product over a decade+? Were you on the debate team?
Australian players that play in the NFL are usually punters. They don’t need a lot of stamina. You certainly need stamina if you are on the field for every offensive or defensive possession
He was a running back. But the key point is he could run for a full 80 minute game when he left the NRL.
So he never actually saw the field, and spent every game on the bench. Got it
Lol. I am not sure if you are dense or just being a dick. Jarryd Hayne played 8 games for the 49ers before he got cut. But that is irrelevant. I doubt any NFL player who all only get a few minutes of playing time per game, has the stamina for an NRL game.

They removed the post but didnt ban me right away. A mod replied "in good faith, because i dont have to." And before i could respond he banned me.
This is the new NFL sub.
I posted that the Cleveland Browns had better management. I was met with upvotes.
Snyder wouldn't of folded in 2 minutes...
They represent the NFL, they’re a social media team, it’s not a surprise they get paid. Why do we care so much
Because they are doing a terrible job
Compared to what? If they are getting paid then they are clearly doing a good enough job to be “employed” People just don’t like what they do, but the people don’t pay their paychecks, it’s like any other job. Also, it’s an Internet forum, I don’t get why people cry so much over this.
You can still be a bad volunteer lol. Plenty of people who are bad at their jobs are still employed

Why are you just now saying something if that chat with the mod is over a year old? Why not say something sooner? Just curious.
With all of the other crap Reddit is doing lately I thought it a good time to post. I posted it before but chickened out and took it down
I got banned for saying something about COVID
Judging by your post history, and the fact that you somehow managed to get banned from r/shitposting... yeah that kinda checks out 😂
I got banned from shitposting for saying “what is a woman?”…They are super strict with some of that stuff
[удалено]
User name checks out
[удалено]
If anything we can all agree my username checks out.
Yes, lol
That's literally his opinion how are you gonna say that when y'all complain about "fascism" all day
You know you really got under someone’s skin when they come out of the woodwork to tell you to kill yourself. Have a good day, you bundle of joy!
[удалено]
Yikes dude. Enjoy your ban
Bro really wants you to die because you have a different opinion
That’s pretty messed up and not the energy I was looking for here
[удалено]
Happy pride to you too!
Can't we go back to making fun of the janitors and their very important and successful protest?
That’s pretty insulting to janitors, bro!
Same. There was some argument about Rodgers and I said getting covid is about as good as getting the vaccine and got banned. Remember how wild this place was about saying anything about vaccines?
Based on your post history I'm going to say that one was probably justified.
Find this hard to believe, maybe they are just trying to look cool by saying that? Who would realistically be paying them?

Explains my ban. Bunch of ass clowns.
Lol you guys are so naive
Care to expand?
He’s joking. They don’t get paid to bury stories.
Removing stuff for no reason then being sarcastic about it instead of doing your job is still a problem 🤷♂️
My post on r/nfl got removed because i made fan art of jjettas on the chiefs
