This back and forth between Kamara and Thomas about Norman hurts no one. Anytime these players show the full range of emotion on the spectrum or say something the board disagrees with everybody wants the players to just shut up and play. These guys aren’t robots, and way worse is being said to one another on that field than what we read on Twitter.
Your line of excuses is the kind of attitude that breeds this "culture", as you love to call everything.

I don't care if they are professional athletes are common, everyday people. Your problem here is you automatically assume my opinion is biased to a certain group of people (what a surprise), in this case, football players.

My problem is these are grown men acting like babies. This thing you call "culture" is a societal disease, right now. I didn't need you to inform me that this is what people do on their twitter. This isn't news to me. I simply have a problem with people airing their problems all over social media, and using words that make them sound like little kids having a fight over who's cooler. And, yes, their actions ARE hurting somebody... Themselves. They are embarrassing themselves. And the fact that they clearly don't care about that says a lot about them.

At some point, these guys have to get over it. And if they can't get over it then, as I said before, let your play do the talking. When one guy one ups the other, the guy who lost the battle should be motivated to do better, and the guy who won the battle should be happy that he did his job and just leave it at that.

But if even THAT isn't enough, at least be able to communicate in a way that doesn't make you look like a little brat. These guys look like bratty little frat boys.

Listening to you, you'd think I'm criticizing these guys for not being perfect, rather than for what they are actually doing, which has been a pathetic display of immaturity.

Making excuses for their behavior just tells me that you are like them. If you're proud of that, congratulations.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
