I'm wondering whose ass are you considering I am kissing? Nobody that means anything reads this forum but us.

LOL!

I also have the right to challenge your beliefs, right? Or do you deny that?

Obviously you have the right, I just feel its out of line to belittle members when they don't consistently spout sunshine and roses when discussing a topic, about an individual that's affecting the team.

I get that you are an ultra positive individual, that's absolutely fine. However, this thread in its nature is quite a negative subject, so people are going to voice their displeasure and whilst you are ofcourse entitled to your opinion, so are we, so being told we are "being negative as usual" or "our feelings don't matter" in my opinion is out of line. This is a fan forum, our feelings matter to us.

I wouldn't think you'd need to point out my connection to Michael Thomas but since we're here - You aren't his teammate either! Nor are you any closer to any of his teammates than I am.

I simply stated what "I would do". That's MY opinion.

But if you don't think the WRs aren't out there trying to take anyone's position, you're crazy.

There are no sacred cows.

Wow, @CantGuardMike failures to take care of his business has got this forum in a tizzy, imagine the discussions in the front office and the locker room...

Of course they are seeing their opportunity! As they should. I don't disagree at all. But, many care for him as a brother "in arms" and hope for the best for them and their team. I would expect to do the same myself. Wouldn't you?

That’s a contradiction. How can he be a brother in arms and players expect
him to want what’s best for the team when/if he behaves in a selfish manner? I’d expect such brotherhood would include being there for your teammate, wouldn’t you? You know what, never mind.

I guess it doesn't register for you. Go back and carefully read what I posted. Not worth my time right now. :rolleyes:

How do you know? Because you read it on the internet? Again - you're no closer than any of us so you're assuming.

If you want my opinion, whether he did this on purpose or not, he's "healing" on the team's time. AKA letting his team down.
