If you feel like you can't trust a co-worker to do his/her job, when they used to be able to do it, isn't that a betrayal of sorts? At the end of the day, you have to get over it and adapt and overcome those issues, but it doesn't disregard the initial letdown

We'll agree to disagree.

I think Joe Thomas appears to be a whiny crybaby. I also believe that it's pretty uncool to call out a former teammate.

Well, on that we do agree.

Hillis quit on his team.

Like it or not, 'team-mates' view that in a different light than you or I. To them, he was basically sabotaging the team for his own personal gain.

Whether you find the word 'betrayal' to be hyperbole or not, his former team-mates have been lighting him up like this since last season. He's a quitter.
