You don't air your laundry in public...ever.

But does one instance of doing that with another team automatically make you off limits? You act like we didn't have guys come in and be productive that had a much bigger problem keeping their mouth shut (i.e. Shockey). And he kep fairly quiet while he was here. Reggie sometimes spoke out of turn. They were both good enough to stay here for a good amount of time and help bring us a championship.

I'm not going to put a stigma on a guy who did something like that one time with one team. Especially when he doesn't have a history of doing that his whole career. I just feel that people need to look at it realistically. Speaking to the media 1-2 times about something going on within the team shouldn't automatically mean you're not a team player or you should get a pink slip or never be put on another team again.

I honestly don't have a problem with him saying anything to the media about his DC. Why? Because:

1. It was and instance where he had valid reason to question the ability of a DC thats never coached defense in his career.

2. He was in a lockeroom where the culture doesn't dictate that you keep your mouth shut to the media. He was in Philly where you can claim you're a dynasty and a dream team before you even step foot on the field as a team. Different teams have different lockeroom cultures....and clearly Philly didn't have the same philosophy as the Saints......Shockey sure didn't have that type of culture while he was with the Giants....didn't stop him from falling in line when he came here.

3. And the most important reason IDGAF about him talking to the media in Philly......At least he put his name on it....as opposed to cowards who don't.
