How about he Just try as hard as he can to get back on the field for his own sake and the case of the contract you are playing under rather than to get back at some shadowy figures for perceived wrongs done? That’s the kind of stuff that makes him sound like a Prima Donna to some.

It’s the Michael Jordan approach. He’d just make up stuff to be mad about and motivate himself. Some people perform better angry. I was actually one of those people. My dad yelling at me was always the trigger lol.
