Re: Keenan Lewis
Exactly..its not like he just said one little thing and it got over blown. No..he said several different things at different times..so I'll stand by my original statement..Sounds like someone got put in check!

Re: Keenan Lewis
I'm sure behind close doors Payton lit his *** up about what and what not to put out on social media before the apology

Re: Keenan Lewis
Keenan went waaay off the reservation and he (and maybe agent) thought they could rattle the tree...
Only problem was he found out who the Man really is and it backfired in his face... Guy is a great competitor and plays with passion, I get that, applaud that... But you never, N-E-V-E-R, air your in-house grievances or contract dissatisfaction via any media, especially Twitter, thinking you'll force Coach Payton's hand... You man up, geaux into his office and keep the discussion localized without any public displays or disrespect nor insubordination - especially when you're asking the man to give you more money... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Re: Keenan Lewis
Oh, and watch the "reservation" comments. My Shawnee and Blackfoot blood boils a bit at times.

Keenan pulled some real BS taking to twitter like he did... He has the right to say what he wants, but he better be ready for the consequences... And if you think that when adversaries or people when in negotiations don't take notice of that, or further... That is could compromise an ongoing contract negotiation to make the Saints better... That conduct could be detrimental to the team... |

People make mistakes, the fans aren't stupid and will forgive. A lot of these guys should just stay away from social media & focus on playing ball, again IMO. Hopefully KL learned a valuable lesson, #shrug.
Proud Irish/Ukrainian here ... Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone, . |
