Timothy Gordon is a Racist Cancer + Trump Forces Draft of Sheduer Sanders | David L. Gray
In this explosive episode of the David L. Gray Podcast, we confront the uncomfortable truths hiding in plain sight—from racism in Catholic media to political power plays in the NFL. (Watch on YouTube)
First, David dives deep into the troubling legacy of Timothy Gordon, whose recent online behavior is just the latest chapter in a long history of inflammatory rhetoric. From Cracker Barrel’s branding shifts to the eerie silence in Catholic spaces about white supremacy, this segment exposes how cults of personality and groupthink have allowed racism to fester unchecked. David calls out the complicity of Catholic influencers who remain silent in the face of true evil, while obsessing over papal missteps. He also reflects on the prophetic voice of Thea Bowman and the need for Catholics to call balls and strikes—regardless of tribal loyalties. This isn’t just about one man; it’s about a system that rewards silence and punishes truth.
Then, we pivot to the 2025 NFL Draft and the mystery surrounding Shedeur Sanders. Why did one of the most promising quarterbacks in college football fall to pick #144? David unpacks Eric Dickerson’s bombshell claim that someone called the Cleveland Browns and told them, “Don’t do that. Draft him.” Was it Donald Trump? The timing of Trump’s Truth Social post praising Shedeur’s “phenomenal genes” and blasting NFL owners as “STUPID” raises serious questions. With deep ties between the Browns’ ownership and Trump’s inauguration donors, this segment explores whether political influence shaped the draft—and what it means for sports, media, and legacy.
Finally, David delivers a monologue on Kevin Stefanski, the NFL’s best crisis manager—and why that’s a problem. Stefanski’s résumé is full of almosts: no playoff wins on the sideline, no back-to-back winning seasons, and a play-calling style that sabotages quarterbacks. From Baker Mayfield to Shedeur Sanders, Stefanski’s system seems designed to protect his ego rather than elevate talent. David argues that until Stefanski learns to let go of control and let a quarterback lead, the Browns will continue spinning their wheels.
