Did I call you one or did I say I am not one and don't have to support them because of Alabama?

I feel you I don't like the Patriots just can't hate them lol. As a 49ers fan I had hope that them winning had something to do with Chip Kelly being a terrible coach and we go to the SuperBowl soon.

Doesn't treat players well and they don't pay them. Doesn't take care of his guys for the most part. Their system is a use and dump one where their players are depreciable assets. Their organization removes the human factor and I hate this.

I get that some of you resent players and don't care how they get treated and possibly enjoy the fact this occurs.

While I hate the Falcons (for other reasons), I respect the heck out of Arthur Blank. He treats his guys well, cares about them progressing as men and desires to see them succeed outside of football. The NFL needs more Blanks and Rooneys. Less Krafts.

He's just lucky to have Belichick.

Of course he is lucky to have Brady and belicheck, but I respectfully disagree that he’s not a great owner. Lot of the personnel descions are made by Belicheck and Caserio.

You’re a fan of coach Saban right?

Just a hunch: Another LB Saban may be working on -- 4* OLB Xavier Peters ( 247 profile). He visited Bama in April and was offerred. He recently flipped from UK to FSU.

It’s not that we are sensitive. It’s that we have no need for the glue from the dead horse you’re continually beating.

You are missing the point. Your perspective is limited to the view of a fan. I am telling you to try to broaden this perspective and see things from the point of view of a player.

Anyways, done with this conversation.

Patriots and Kraft lose and it feels great.

While agree with you he is the owner. It is a business to him. He has to remove feelings out of it to do what's best for his organization.

Huddie has stopped, for now at least. So let's all let it go, instead of replying to any of the Tua or Jalen related posts and possibly restarting him.

Possibly...we should've turned up the heat after the all star game. He looked excellent.

Yes. One or two losses doesn't sink your season. You can keep your QB for as long as you're willing to pay him plus there's only 32 teams with only about 4-6 teams with any type of legitimate shot to win it. Where as CFB is 120 teams with more teams who can win it, there's a panel who determines the four best teams, you're not even guaranteed a spot even if you win your conference. The coaches have limited practice times with players. I don't know why it's so hard for you to comprehend.

It's also a business for Arthur Blank, but he isn't going to dump my arse in the street if I don't bend to his lowballing tactics.

It's a business for Arthur Blank but he gives a shite whether I'm okay mentally and wants to see his players succeed in life after football... in fact he aids them in doing so.

That's my point.

You're dealing with human beings. Not tools. Not robots. Not equipment that has a shelf life then needs to get dumped and replaced with better equipment. These human beings have families, people whom rely on them no differently than Kraft.

So treat them as such. It is not just business.




Alright, I'm truly done with this subject and not trying to hijack the thread.

I actually own multiple business.

Also, the biggest "pussies" are the ones who feel the need to call someone they don't even know a pussy. A guy like you doesn't have the balls to say what he can type.

Good day.
