Riley Cooper decided to get drunk at a concert and throw around some racial slurs. He has since lost all respect from the African American community. I have seen some ESPN talk show hosts (Skip Bayless) indicated Riley should be cut from the team. Is this deserved? Should he be suspended? What are your thoughts on this matter?

To me, it all depends on the Eagles locker room. I know that Cooper has lost some respect from some of his teammates and that is an issue. However, if they can all come together, for the common goal of winning a Super Bowl then they will be fine. If there is any issue in that locker room to where this gets in the way of the goal, then he has to go.
Chip Kelly has quite the job on his hands with this. He really has to tread lightly as to not divide the locker room. If he does, then the Eagles are going to be up shit creek without a paddle.

Well, if Riley wanted to put a target on his back, I can't think of a better way. Not to mention Vick's own brother put a 1k bounty on Riley getting lit up.

Michael denounced it but the whole Vick clan are apparently dirtballs.

Michael has to denounce it...his younger brother Marcus is an absolute tool. Ill probably have a 1K bounty on my head for saying that too.

Probably. Now Cooper has taken an excused absence from the team to address his racist self. I agree it is a word that should not be said but seriously... There are actual criminals int he NFL that don't get as bad of treatment. The guy was drunk... Stuff happens that you regret.
