Even if it CAN be read that way, it's still denigrating to the existing players on this team. There's no way to spin this that makes it not a derogatory comment.

I can't tell you how many times on these threads I've read, "I used to like Trent Green..." or "I used to think Trent was a leader..." Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I just don't see the statements Trent made being antithetical to being a leader.

Pretty simply, I thought Trent was above this kinda stuff. Maybe I just had unrealistic expectations.
