I posted it in the game thread as it happened, but a good friend of mine was sitting a few rows back from MC when he was on the phone and shortly after he got off the phone, he was clearly disappointed and disturbed.
There is no conspiracy theory involved because I posted that well before he got "hurt". Its VERY odd that shortly after that call, he gets a concussion on a play that he didn't seem to take that hard of a hit. That phone call was Pioli telling Matt "I'm sorry, Matt....I held out as long as I could, but you know what I'm about to say. I'm not gonna pull you and I'm not gonna let them pull you. The next time you get hit, you stay down. I'll take care of the rest. I'm sorry it didn't work out. I really am. You'll always be my starting quarterback." |

Well, that's interesting...considering that was the second play of that drive.

Doing it on the 1st play of the drive would have been too obvious???

Yeah we've all been had. Dictator Pioli found a way to turn the tables on the fans. I smell BS on that injury.

Softest concussion I've ever seen. Seems like bullshit.

I kind of expect him to go on IR and then fade into Bolivian

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't he have to go through independent tests to prove he has a concussion? If so, pretty sure he can't fake a diagnosis.

Pretty sure with all the attention around concussions, the league would make sure any evaluation is independent and impartial. Many teams might convince a doctor that a qb is ok to play. It's a nice conspiracy theory, but I don't think it holds much water.

His insurance agent, he saved a ton of $ switching to Geico, so easy a caveman QB can do it.

Pioli, if you noticed Brady Quinn was on the phone before that as well.
Pioli: "Brady, I can't believe I'm saying this, but Matt and I are breaking up. It was a good run, but these fockers are after my job and sweet sweet Matty isn't worth losing my job over. Here's what's going to happen, he's going to get hit act all wobbly like one of his passes and come out of the game due to injury. Good luck" "Matt, your $63 million dollar run and our love affair is over. Lets face it you owe me, take a fall or I will have you benched for being such a shitty QB all but ensuring you never get signed to a 3rd string QB contract. My job is on the line and that sorry ass Clark Hunt will give me an extension if we can get to 6-10. You're done buddy"
