I doubt any of the players had bad feelings towards MT, the staff is another story. It was all about his availability and what he was willing to do or not do. For that we may never know the real truth for a very long time, if ever. I found it very interesting last year when he and Lattimore went down, it was not supposed to be a season ending for either guy. Fast forward to the offseason, MT is released and Lattimore is subject to heavy trade rumors, which still persist to this day. Then there were stories of Lattimore and the staff having to iron out differences, to me this is an indication they may have refused to play when they could have. If that has any truth to it, there is your cancer.
