papazoid Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Now I know that I’m supposed to lead by example and all that but I’m not shoving that aside like it don’t mean anything. I know it’s important, I honestly do but we’re talking about stretching. We’re talking about stretching man. We’re talking about stretching. We’re talking about stretching. We’re not talking about the game. We’re talking about stretching. When you come to the stadium, and you see me play, you’ve seen me play right, you’ve seen me give everything I’ve got, but we’re talking about stretching right now. … Hey I hear you, it’s funny to me too, hey it’s strange to me too but we’re talking about stretching man, we’re not even talking about the game, when it actually matters, we’re talking about stretching … How the hell can I make my teammates better by stretching?” - shady's likely response when he finally shows up ??

I know that I immediately think of Allen Iverson when I think of Shady... ...or that could possibly be a horrendous comparison, since Iverson was talking about regular-season basketball practice, and Shady missed a voluntary stretch session. The good news is that you're stretching this narrative enough that the entire NFL should probably take the week off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 (edited) Wouldn't have been cool though if 61 of 61 players attended? Wouldn't have that been a strong statement of unity and commitment? I'm confident that when Shady does show up, he'll be in shape. I'm looking forward to another good year from Shady. I don't think his lack of attendance is the end of the world. I just think that the proper way to welcome a new coach is with participation and engagement. 60 players found ways to manage their personal commitments and still make it do Day One of voluntary workouts. It would have been nice if Shady figured it out too. If the other 60 players took care of their off-season football stuff and played on the field the way Shady does, I also wouldn't care if they skipped OTA's. I'm actually encouraged that Dareus showed up. He's someone that needs to be there. Edited April 5, 2017 by Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I know...I just think that the reaction from some is a bit over the top. As I said......the reaction by people defending Shady is what is over the top.......even got one guy BANNED yesterday for blowing his top.......the people who don't like Shady being the one guy to not show up are just kinda' saying he shoulda showed up. The exaggeratedly defensive reactions reflect an underlying fear that things haven't entirely changed wrt buy-in. I don't think any of the people criticizing McCoy are saying THAT. We all know he shouldn't have been the one guy not to show. Nobody would have shamed him for missing his 5 year olds literal birthday to be at his $9M job. Have your kid's birthday on a weekend. He's 5......he's probably in school on a Tuesday. It's just kind-of a reason to miss the first day of McDermott's coaching regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 He's probably interviewing at Westwood One That's what I say .......he will probably end up in radio/podcast biz like all the other washed-up Hall-of-Good'ers in the NFL and NBA. He might have a shot on one of the 200 different NFL tv shows but the domestic violence/herpes spreading/ladies-only party issues might be an issue there.....seems the trend is away from those types. The end comes fast for a RB......gotta' be prepared! Dareus lose weight? Way to bring up an issue NOBODY was askin' about. You are developing quite the rep as a sh*t stirrer UDonkey. Who the H. E. DOUBLEHOCKEYSTICKS are YOU to judge a millennial?!?!?!?! Me, I'm 43. But to answer your first question, I'm a person who is posting on a message board. Much like you, I share my opinions here. It's kinda' out of bounds to call a fellow poster you know very little about a bad father/husband on TSW........no? You should probably slow your roll........or maybe take it over to ppp?

Bill_with_it Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 And some people don't have to post from work. Are those people that are using their employers time and resources terrible people? you think he doesn't care about the team? Name one time from since he's been a Bill where he show that he didn't care while on the field. Did he ever mail it in? Why would that change now? Did I in any way insinuate thats what he was doing?Are those things you specifically brought up: caring about the team, mailing it in, the only things that can be gained from that voluntary workout? Thats it? If you believe thats the only large things that can be atrributed from being at a voluntary workout for the first time after significant changes, whilst wvery single other player is there thats a tad bit naive.

Throw a thread out there that gives BADOL an opportunity to critique Shady, and you may as well light a candle in front of a moth. By the way -- does anyone still think Shady wasn't worth 5.04% of the Bills' cap number last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenhigh Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Hes the only one not there on a tesm that's desperately trying to undo losing ways and turn this franchise around. You dont think a millionaire athlete could have held his childs birthday party a day early in order to take part in team activities that has been arrainged for a while now? Also its 4 hours how long is the birthday party all day? He could have done both in the same day. So, no kids for you either? Unless you are in the armed forces and deployed overseas, you sound like a terrible father and husband. Probably a good employee though. Because you have no context or knowledge of the situation. That generally leads to making yourself look like an ass. Exhibit A: your last handful of posts in this topic. What more context do you need? I'm as entitled you my opinion about his post are you are about your TT crusade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
