Kelly the Dog Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Patriots | McGinest critical of SeauTue, 22 Aug 2006 07:54:01 -0700 The Boston Herald reports Cleveland Browns LB and ex-New England Patriot Willie McGinest is upset with New England Patriots LB Junior Seau's decision to wear McGinest's old No. 55 jersey. "What if I had went to San Diego? I don't even think that would have been an option for me to ask for 55," McGinest said. "I think they would have said, 'You know what, you're a great player, but we've got to put this number to the side because of Junior.' And out of respect, I wouldn't have asked for the number." Willie McGinest? He was good, and sometimes quite good, but if we didn't use numbers from all players as good as Willie McGinest we would be using letters instead of numbers. You know, like "Now playing linebacker for the New England Patriots, BS, or FU." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Seriously, McGinest needs to get over himself. What a goober. He doesn't own the #55 Patriots jersey and last time I checked, he doesn't even play there anymore. What does it truly matter? He should take his millions he's getting paid, take his problems out on everyone else on the field, and stop whining like a five year old who put down a toy and another kid came along and picked it up.

Hollywood Donahoe Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 I don't think the Pats would give that number out to just anybody. Given the circumstances (McGinest only started wearing #55 because of Seau), I think it's okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlegm Alley Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Doesn't Willie have other things to worry about, like getting ready for the season with the Cleavland Browns and not worrying about what # a player on another team is wearing?
