thurst44 Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Oh, I definitely get it. As soon as it's economically feasible I see us moving on..... It's a shame because he's so very talented, but not their kinda guy. In the meantime, we pray he grows up. Or he gets his act together, has two seasons at the top of his ability, and we're all happy. So, I guess I don't agree and agree (hopefully he grows up and makes us have to keep him).

BUFFALOKIE Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Baby steps? What about Bob? Bob Woods? He was !@#$ing crazy!
Doc Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 But they paid Wood 8 mil per. Yeah, I have no idea what they were thinking there. Oh, I definitely get it. As soon as it's economically feasible I see us moving on..... It's a shame because he's so very talented, but not their kinda guy. In the meantime, we pray he grows up. I'm not so sure about moving on, unless he gets suspended by the league again.
Augie Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Yeah, I have no idea what they were thinking there. I'm not so sure about moving on, unless he gets suspended by the league again. We are at a crossroads and I could see it going either way. If he responds, I'm all in. ALL IN, because he can make a HUGE difference. We just need the player to be all in too. Time will tell.

We just need the player to be all in too. Time will tell. To me, as long as he doesn't get suspended and takes care of his play on the field, I really don't care if he shows up late. I see why they're doing what they're doing, but at some point it becomes counterproductive.
Augie Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 To me, as long as he doesn't get suspended and takes care of his play on the field, I really don't care if he shows up late. I see why they're doing what they're doing, but at some point it becomes counterproductive. If he shows up late and breaks team rules he will be gone. That will not be tolerated, and I understand that thinking. Could he get a little slack is he's a first ballot HOF guy? Sure. But you have to show up in shape and dominate first, and he's not doing that part yet.
BUFFALOKIE Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Try again! I got it the first time, "Bob". Is your name Bob?
Augie Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 I got it the first time, "Bob". Is your name Bob? Not sure if you're playing or missed the movie. I'm not Bob, I'm actually crazier than Bob!
BUFFALOKIE Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Not sure if you're playing or missed the movie. I'm not Bob, I'm actually crazier than Bob!So, you are Bob's psychologist, got it. Great movie ref, BTW. I just watched a few YouTube highlights. I love, love, love the road rhino (wagoneer) Edited September 1, 2017 by BUFFALOKIE

Again, as long as he's producing on the field, I give him slack. You're stuck with him and it's doubtful anyone is looking at him and saying "I should do that" when you have a guy like McCoy who is on a first ballot HOF path who takes care of his ****.
Gunsgoodtime Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 So, you are Bob's psychologist, got it. Great movie ref, BTW. I just watched a few YouTube highlights. I love, love, love the road rhino (wagoneer) Fill me in fellows, sorry I must have missed or not old enough, I'm going to say just missed it lol

Short story, we are stuck at this point like you said
Doc Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Short story, we are stuck at this point like you said Yup. Just pray he doesn't get suspended again and move on when it's feasible.
Augie Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 So, you are Bob's psychologist, got it. Great movie ref, BTW. I just watched a few YouTube highlights. I love, love, love the road rhino (wagoneer) Big Bill Murray fan, even more so since he became a prominent fan of my college hoops team. (His son is asst coach there.) Yup. Just pray he doesn't get suspended again and move on when it's feasible. I'll opt for NOT moving on if he grows up and produces. How long did it take Bruce to decide he wanted to be great? At the current rate, this &%$* won't fly once it's feasible to move on. How much does he grow and learn to care before that point in time? Fill me in fellows, sorry I must have missed or not old enough, I'm going to say just missed it lol There's a Bill Murray/Richard Dreyfus movie titled What About Bob. Pretty funny, if a little frustrating.

How much does he grow and learn to care before that point in time? Of course that would be the best case. I'll even settle for producing and staying out of trouble.
BUFFALOKIE Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Fill me in fellows, sorry I must have missed or not old enough, I'm going to say just missed it lol What About Bob. Early 90s flick. Murry, Dreyfuss. Just before Groundhog Day.
Augie Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Of course that would be the best case. I'll even settle for producing and staying out of trouble. I can be a greedy SOB, so I'll hold out hope for that. For some reason, I find I'm often disappointed in life....
