Emmanuel Acho, former linebacker of the Philadelphia Eagles and current co-host of FOX Sports’ “Speak For Yourself”, said on Wednesday that the culture of the demolition would not help DeSean Jackson after his anti-Semitic social media posts.
Acho discussed Jackson’s contributions and his subsequent apology with his co-host Marcellus Wiley. Acho said Jackson should have been better informed of what he posted and not refer to Adolf Hitler or Louis Farrakhan.

“Ignorance is no longer acceptable in any form or in any form. Ignorance is no longer an excuse. Ignorance may be an explanation, but ignorance is not an excuse, ”said Acho. “When I think of DeSean Jackson and what DeSean Jackson did you are too grown up and too old and you should be too educated to make such offensive mistakes. Again, you should be too educated to make such mistakes. “
Acho said he didn’t think Jackson wanted to offend anyone, but what he did was still “unacceptable.” He added that the demolition culture would not improve the situation.
“I’m done with the demolition culture. I’m done with ‘man, DeSean Jackson. What did he just say? Let’s be done with it. “Because what breaks culture, Marcellus does not do, it does not train and leaves no room for growth,” he said.

“DeSean Jackson has to face his Twitter punishment and the Eagles have to punish him as they see fit. However, the culture of demolition is idiotic because it doesn’t allow growth, because keep that in mind when you think about the question on the ground: what should the eagles do? I was in the Eagles’ dressing room in 2013, “Acho continued.” A man named Riley Cooper. I was in the Eagles’ dressing room in 2013 when receiver Riley Cooper went to a Kenny Chesney concert shortly before training camp and says’ I’m going to cry all the N-words with the harsh ‘uh’. ‘ And if you know something, you know that the hard “um” is a little different. Riley Cooper’s Punishment: He was five days off from training camp. Riley Cooper’s Punishment: He played a ball this season and received a $ 25 million five-year extension. ”
Acho added that Jackson needs to speak to someone in the Jewish community to get a better understanding of Jewish history.
