RE: Boo Pissed
The one thing I never understood about Boo is, YEah okay so he's a receiving TE... Then why doesn't he approach 80 catches a season.
Tony Gonzalez is solid, but not considered an awesome blocker. Yet, he comes up with awesome numbers. I blame McCarthy 1. cus he's gone and it's easy... 2. The offense is buitl around WR's. I don't totally think it's Boo's fault b/c, there were never screens or Goaline "jump" routes in teh play book for him. Funny, We all know Antonio Gates was going out for passes, last year when we played SD, and we couldn't stop him. I never bought into the whole. "Boo is due for a breakout season," propaganda we had to listen and watch last pre-season. SO CUT HIM AND MOVE ON. This year it's all about Talman Or so we're told |

Boo is a wide receiver trapped in a tight end body. He will never be a blocker and he will never be a receiver. He is a tweener. Was labeled a tweener coming out of college and has proven to date to be a tweener in the pros. Add to that his immaturity and me first attitude to the fact that the Saints revolve their passing game around Joe Horn and Stallworth and it is easy to see why he will be cut in late August.
