Meachem on 105.3 San Diego this morning
 

Boy this guy had NOTHING to say. It was so awkward, they made fun of him after he hung up. They were reaching for questions.

New Chargers WR, Robert Meachem, joined Alex and Gil on Late Hits to talk about signing in San Diego - SiriusXM Sports

It did sound a bit awkward. He said umm a lot and spoke very monotonous.

I don't think he's comfortable speaking publicly.

Watch Meachems draft day interview once we selected him on youtube

The guy is not a very good speaker, he says umm and repeats himself alot.

Thanks for everything Meach, Lets hope for the Chargers Fans' sake you don't take as long to learn their playbook as you did with ours.....2 years

.. still don't understand this want for athletes not only to be articulated in front of a microphone, but for them to say the "right" things.

I mean, what can Meachem say?
"I'm happy to be in SD".
"SD is built to win now"
"The fans in SD are great"
..yeah..

"Well, SD gave me the contract that gives me the most guaranteed cash"... now that (maybe) would be worth listening to.

Like Colston, was never a public or outspoken guy... I consider it a good thing.

I just don't get all this constant ragging, snarky comments and dishing trash on guys who leave the Saints -- I sure would not want to work with any of you people if this is how you treat someone after they leave the building

No kidding, I'm not a fan of any of this stuff, particularly the things that were said about Nicks on twitter.

All of these guys have to say something.
Cameras, microphones, phone calls for every new contract that gets inked.
Accentuate the positives...lay the foundation for some great new relationships.
The money is great but they can't say it, at least not like a fool would say it.
Even if you like her just for her body, You don't say it!
and it might be true, but you just don't say it.
I'm glad none of them have been stupid enough to say "I'm doing it for the money!"
well at least not yet.

That's right. They only get one chance at a big deal and they have to take it. It isn't easy to leave and it just makes it worse to get treated like crap from the only fans you have known. It is very low class treatment by supposed fans.

Um, I'm going to, um, leave this, um, conversation, um, to you, um guys..
