It doesn't make sense. I know WR's are generally overlooked by voters, but this guy dominated the league for over a decade.

As far as your report, I'm telling you that WWL, NBC Sports, and numerous media outlets have confirmed he did not run the 40. I even confirmed it myself with the Times-Picayune and Jay Glazer. Moss didn Every single rumor about the 40 being ran is directed to SportsNOLA.com No idea who their source was, but I believe PFT more than that website, considering they actually have more sources being a national media place. Furthermore as I have stated, the time they said he ran is the exact rumored time that was said he ran before the work out. Trust me on this one, I wouldn't downplay him. |

One good reason he won't be in the HOF ANY time soon....The people voting have been doing it for years and how many receivers been inducted in the last 20 years?

As for Moss's bad play, well....like I mentioned before, who wants to wear themselves out every down with Daunte Culpepper, Aaron Brooks, & Vince Young. I'm not saying it's right. Just saying I understand. Culpepper had a few good years & that's it. Aaron Brooks sucked! We, as Saints fans, all know that. And Vince Young......well, see the Aaron Brooks comment. Now.....I know Moss received alot of bad publicity for "playing when he wanted to", but tell me......did you ever see him take a play off with Warren Moon, Tom Brady, or even Culpepper in his good days??? Brooks & Young are team killers that bring everyone down, because they suck. I can understand Moss's lack of enthusiasm in that regard. The point is......you give this guy Brees as his QB, a chance at a ring, & a chance to change people's opinion of him.........I would be willing to bet the house Randy Moss would give his all. That said, could you imagine what Drew Brees could do with a guy that runs the 9 route like Moss added to the mix? I'll stop there. |

I actually did an article by saying why the Saints SHOULD take a chance on Moss especially in the situation they're in. I'm not against him coming at all. Also, he's quit on the Patriots and Brady before, that's why he got the boot if I'm not mistaken. But, hey.. He does his own thing and deserves first ballot. Hopefully he gets it. We'll see in like, what? 7 years maybe? |

I don't remember him quitting on the Pats. I do, however, remember a big stink about his comments on their food right before he was traded. In his defense...... New England food is horrible, so I understand.

Thought it was in 2010... when he only played 4 games for them, that's why he ended up getting traded? I dunno though..
