Randy Moss Insurance for Colston?

saintfan · 08-12-2011, 01:12 PM

In all honesty I would like to see T.O. He'll cross the middle of the field like very few will, and I've never really heard much about his being a problem in the locker room.

No, I wouldn't sweat T.O., but Moss in a whole different animal IMO.

Yeah, I have heard very often that T.O. in the public and with the media is much different than T.O. in the locker room. He seems to piss off front offices and coaches by running his mouth to the press, but players love him (Aside from big Don). The one thing is that he is definitely a diva in that if you don't give him 60 touches a season he will start getting pissy with everyone. Our team image doesn't support more than a couple of big image players who are ambassadors, and we probably spread the ball around way to much to make him happy...
People thought that about Shockey, too though, turns out if you are winning championships they tend to shut their mouths.

Weren't there some rumors during the Cowgirls days that there were some altercations between TO, Romo and Witten, which were more of the
locker room nature and not brought to the media's attention as much? I swear I remember something of that sort.

Oh, and I don't think Lance Moore can really replace what Colston does. Don't get me wrong, he could mature into a #1 receiver, but he would not
do the same things as Colston just because of the differences in their physique.

If I had to share a locker room with Tony Romo I would probably try to kick his ass too.

You have something against latino players?

Definitely NO to Moss, T.O. had a good last season and at this point in his career he might not be too bad. He would be a star among a dozen instead of a few, could his Ego survive?

I thought he did fairly well in that regard during the Buffalo stint where got sucked into the black-hole of media coverage.
