Normally we agree Strat, not this time. He has been playing ball all his life, he knows you are supposed to shake hands after the game no matter the outcome. Sorry doesn't make up for him being a d$&@head!!!!

I know ...but he could have kept talking smack ..he chose the high road when he knew he was wrong..i forgive him...but if he does it in the next game ..then im done as well...i always liked Shockey, and i think he really wanted to stay and it killed him to have to leave..so he is scorn and bitter...He will get over it..i hope.

It's not that strange to not be friends after a break-up, and Shockey feels dumped. Moving on......

In the heat of the moment he just didn't have it in him to congratulate us. He didn't have a great game and he was upset......I don't hold it against Peyton either.

Had Shockey done the same thing to the Giants while he was with us I don't think most would have had a problem with it.

I don't have a problem with it now. Some people get on players (like Aaron Brooks, Jay Cutler, Eli Manning, etc) because they don't see any outward passion. Some people rag on players like Steve Smith, Shockey, and others, because they opening display their passion.

We're cool Shockey, so long as you can get as well as you give.

Yep. Right up until the voodoo comes to get you...

See; Peyton Manning

Classless, and our coach has no responsibility to address a classless act by a former player, right or wrong.

Juvenile is the word to describe Shockey.

I was just about to bring that up. Peyton Manning didnt shake any hands after the superbowl. Does that make him a sore loser, with no class? Cant have it both ways.

Did Manning ever apologize?..

"I hold myself accountable," the 10-year veteran wrote. "It was a classless move by me. No one takes losses worse than me."

It's ok Shockey. You'll get your chance again. The last week of the year.
