Did you see his sideline deal with Moreno?

Heard about his multiple run ins with the law about domestic disputes?
If he isnt a "cancer" he surely is a big "distraction"
If he could be had for the second of our two 2nd rounders or less, Id do it, but honestly I would rather hold onto our picks it would take in a trade and groom our own kids.
Teams dont just sit elite players just to sit them. He obviously did something in regards to telling the team he isnt practicing or something similar for McD to bench him in a game they need to win to have any shot at staying in the playoff picture. |
You can assure me?
When his teammates start showing some signs that they have a problem with him, then I'll be convinced that he's a cancer.
To this point, they seem to be behind him.
As to the situation with Moreno, I have no problem with a player showing some emotion and telling his teammate, who I believe had fumbled twice in the game, to get his head into the game.
As to the benching, the coach, no matter how good or bad, has no real idea as to the extent of an injury, and the only person that does have any true idea is the injured player.
Disciplinary benching because a player doesn't want to practice with an injury isn't the smartest thing in the world.
