Character concerns? Um...
But this isn't the Pioli way, right? We're about roses and sunshine and "good guys." |

And you just took up my position exactly. Moss, video taping... This "high character" bullshit is just that. Bullshit. Although Dirk made a good point about it carrying a bit more relevance in the formative stages of the program. |

I almost think it's not about "character" it is about how hard you work at your craft. As long as you put in the work you're good.To the point of over looking other things as long as the job is done correctly.Hamas talked about LT which could be short for Lots of Talent(g rated version " a jerk" as a person hamas version more colorful)and it's true if the talent is there character doesn't carry much if any weight. Its the marginal guys where that could be the tie breaker as far as a rostor spot.

I respect the opinion that some have about Raji's skill set not justifying the selection, but I don't think the character bit carried much weight. |

I agree that it's easier to take those guys on when you have solid leaders running the show, like a Brady. You'll put up with Dennis Rodman as long as he rebounds and as long as MJ is out there kicking ass and winning games... |

But we're not searching only a bunch of "team" guys. That sounds nice and plays well on the radio cause we can all have a warm fuzzy about the group of good guys we're putting together. But let's face it: this is a talent-driven league. Regarding LJ, I fully expect him to be released. Not because of his lack of character but rather because of his limited skill set. Dude has marginal hands and refuses to block. |

Bingo and that talent goes all the way to the top thus the reason I'm giving this administration my full support,they come from good stock and have a successful history,so until they give me a reason to really doubt I'm trusting they know what the hell they're doing.
