Re: Jim Harbaugh, Vernon Davis Discuss Sunday's Matchup in New Orleans
Vernon Davis on GW's speech before last years game.
You brought up the topic of animosity earlier and going back to the speech before the playoff game last year. In going back and rehashing Gregg Williams’ speech, do you guys have any added fuel with that considering the harsh words that were said in that speech before that game?
“That has nothing to do with us. We’re not worried about that, because every game, everybody’s out to get you. He was probably just getting them pumped up with things like that. That’s what every team does. You never know. I’m sure there’s a lot of teams saying differing things about different guys, depending on who the team is. That’s just the nature of football. It’s not a big deal. We don’t worry about it.”
It didn’t take you aback the first time you heard it?
“I wasn’t surprised. I wasn’t shocked. It’s just the nature of the game and that’s what you have to expect. Coaches have to get their guys ready and that’s what they were doing. They were getting their guys ready. We don’t feel anything in our hearts against them for saying anything out of context or out of character. That’s just how they motivate their guys. We respect that.”
So what the fuss all about? Everybody involved in football knows thats how you talk in the lockerroom. You say stuff like "I'mma kill #56 today, I hate that punk" and what you might really mean is "Man that #56 is a tough guy to play, I'mma get after his ass on every play".
