Kalbear Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I don't honestly know. From the people that I've known with an acl a lot of it is just waiting. I'd think you could be at the station for both. Then again, I'd think that if you were traveling to get a second opinion for four days, it's not that odd that you wouldn't show up to practice. Mostly, I think that the people in both cases that matter - their teammates - don't give a fuck. That it's the equivalent of saying Jay cutlers body language sucks and therefore everyone hates him. It's reporting at the Rita skeeter level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why I'm defending him anyway. Both of those guys have massive "me first" issues for sure. At least when you're talking in terms of team. Screw both of 'em for that aspect of their character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalbear Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I get the beef that Kal has with Rockroi gloating over the last days of Pey Pey. That being said, I think Manning has pretty much shown himself to be a diva this season. Between throwing his teammates under the bus, basically snubbing his backup, and being thoroughly unable to assess his own inabilities, I think he's earned the criticism fairly.When did he throw his teammates under the bus this season? I vaguely recall something like that but don't have the specifics. The snubbing of the backup seems like such a ducking stretch though. Really, you have no idea how Brock works or doesnt, how much they talk, or even if it's helpful for peyton to break down film with anyone. It's one step away from tabloids and Kardashians.

He broke down his offensive line and blamed a pick on his receiver (Sanders I think).Yeah, that's fair regarding the second point. I read a couple of articles/interviews featuring Osweiler where it was said that Manning hadn't gone over any gameplanning with him. I guess that is basically me piling onto a preconceived opinion that I already hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 On a more positive QB note, Newton is just dicing up this Dallas defense. Looking extremely comfortable back there today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 And it looks like they broke the Romo. Time to storm the Cassel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howdyphillip Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Well, Tony Romo is broken again... This is by far the worst Cowboys season that I can ever remember.

Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 So I guess the Giants take the division by default. The NFC East is the new AFC South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any owner that would describe Greg Hardy as a team leader is someone I wish extreme misfortune on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I sympathize with you, Howdy. So many close losses with backup QB's. This team still appears to me to have one of the better rosters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howdyphillip Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I suppose all of your vitriol falls equally on the league as a whole. It sucks Hardy is wearing a star, but it equally sucks that he plays football at all. Him, and everyone else like him wearing a football jersey.

After that it's up to the teams whether or not they take him. It is not remotely equally on the rest of the league. The Cowboys chose to get him. They chose to stay with him after the pics. They chose to call him a leader. That isn't on the rest of the league. That's on the Cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of reasons to dislike the Goodell regime, but I don't think their response to the Greg Hardy incident is among them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Pesci Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Wouldn't an NFC East champ vs AFC South champ match up in SB 50 be a sick burn for the NFL and Goodell?And for fucks sake, can this upcoming game please be somewhat competitive?
