You know, I never thought the NFL would get to the point where a prime-time game between the Eagles and Packers would bore the living ***** out of me.  But here we are.  

I think Thursday night NFL games just aren't meant to be.  Only Thursday games should be on Thanksgiving.

I don't think this is true at all.  I don't remember a quote like this from Whaley, or anywhere else.  Where did you get this?

 

 

From Doug Whaley.  He went on and on and on about "how do you know/. you just know" then went on to comparing to couples who just KNOW they have found the right spouse.  And he rapsodized about how he and Rex would "complete each other's sentences"

 

I don't know how you missed all this back then

He took the players out in response to the comments....

 

'Don't believe me?  Listen to Carson Wentz:

 

 

“I know who I am, first of all. I know how I carry myself. I know I’m not perfect. I know I have flaws,” he said during a sit-down with a small group of reporters at the Eagles’ practice facility recently. “So I’m not going to sit here and say it was inaccurate and completely made up. I’m not going to do that.

 

 

I don't see a direct reference to the dinner in that? 

 

What does that prove? It doesn't prove the complaints, it proves that he's willing to take the anonymous complaint and work on being the very best teammate he can be- it isn't proof that the wasn't before that. It's humility. 

 

"You're a bad teammate who can't take criticism"

 

"No I'm not! I'm a great teammate who can take criticism."

 

See the issue?

He doesn't deny the comments.  He refuses to dispute them.  He responds by taking some guys out for a fancy dinner. What's the part you are struggling with?

 

I'm tryin g to help make this easy for you.

I didn't miss that and remember that quote.  I took that as Whaley was being a team player with new owners, one of which actually chose Rex...I believe the name is Kim.

Russ Brandon told the Pegulas if you like him, don't let him leave the building.  How did you miss that?

I tend to agree.  I mean, this isn't a bad game, like Dolphins/Jets would be.  It's just...why?  Why does this exist?  Why am I spending my night watching football players run around for five seconds at a time while sight-impaired men in striped outfits argue about What It Really Means for hours?

Wentz has bad stretches, but when he's good he's good. 

 

He's the Ring Cycle of quarterbacks: great moments, but awful quarters of an hour.

LOL OK.

 

These two couldn't pick out Rex Ryan from Rob Ryan.  They were clueless and totally dependent on Whaley.  The spin the Whaley was against the pick and staged an elaborate and what would be an insanely over the top post selection gushing endorsement simply to be a company guy is ridiculous.

That's because they're subjective comments. He's giving the benefit of the doubt to the reports and saying, if someone on his team see's him that way or interprets him that way, he's not going to stomp on their perspective, but rather, he's going to be responsible for who he is. Of course he can be a better teammate. Everyone can be better at everything. 

 

As for the dinner, I still don't see how it's directly related, and even then it could be as I said before- him being sure that everything is good. Not proof that he's repenting from anything. 

 

I just don't see it. I also don't understand your last sentence above. :P
