Mike Wallace out vs the Browns

[lloydroid]

Truth. Amazing the amount of lasting vitriol that can be created by a hold-out.

I see this as an opportunity to sign players like Wallace and Mendenhall to reasonable salaries, if the market they are looking for isn't there. Those guys had down years, but still bring quality skill sets to the table which fill niches within this offense.

I'd welcome Wallace and Mendenhall back...if the price is right.

Those who advocate cutting Woodley or Foote are simply retarded.

You want to welcome back players with horrid characters? Guys who don't even show up for work? Guys who just don't even give any effort on the field? You want them back? Talk about being retarded.

Yea screw pride. That was supposed to mean something when the games meant something. They were an embarrassment this year, so lose, and lose in disgrace, so some REAL changes will go down.

Sound familiar?

Aw hell! SH$% just got real!

Mike Wallace does not want to play in Pittsburgh.. He hates the new offense, he hates not being the man, he hates the short pass game (that We all want Ben to adapt to) You can tell by his body language, You can tell by his interviews, you knew it when he held out last year. The Ridiculous money reported might have not been accurate but I do believe he asked for something he KNEW we would not pay.

Can we just let this guy walk away and stop pretending like He wants to be here. He doesn't We don't have the Money to keep him (he will make sure of it) This type of Guy obviously does not play well when he is disgruntled.. He will forever be Disgruntled in this offense. IT is not designed to match his strengths. Hell why would he stay?

Thanks for the Memories Mike, see you in Indy.

Why don't you leave it to the coaches and players to determine the caliber of their character. I'm inclined to believe that not a single one of them would share your myopic opinion. You sit in front of your TV and computer screen and attempt to make judgements on these men when you have nothing to go on but scraps of information that you process through your warped perceptions.

Yea, well, the only thing wrong with your argument is I HAVE BEEN PROVEN CORRECT in so many of my predictions. Sometimes you can't see the forest through the trees; just because you have a coaching position doesn't make you infallible. Not even close. Wallace is a piece of garbage. He is an immature, self-centered idiot. If you can't plainly see that, you lack any ability to perceive the obvious. I don't need coaches to tell me that. It is beyond obvious. It was our genius coaches who allowed Woodley to play at a fatso weight. Yea, they must be really diligent and brilliant. I have met with some of these coaches; many aren't much brighter than a bag of hammers.

that same logic could be used for anyone that has something good to say about any player or coach, correct?

I guess it depends on what you are referring to. Many of us (especially those who have legit knowledge of the game) can watch what unfolds during a game or cobble together statistics and make some pretty accurate assessments about what we see...good or bad. Maybe we could also see a player who engages in a pattern of criminal activity or otherwise operates with a lack of morality and it becomes painfully obvious that the dude is a scumbag.

Attacking a man's character and calling him a "piece of garbage" and an "immature, self-centered idiot" based on his performance and contract stance seems a little hard to do. I would agree that most of us didn't exactly appreciate either facet of Wallace's game this year. But only a warped few could arrive at or agree with the profoundly negative conclusion that Roidrage came up with.

It's nothing less than ridiculous hyperbole from someone who obviously has very little idea how to interpret the world around him and adequately express himself.

Either way Squid...if you want to hitch your wagon to that guy or defend his position, feel free and have fun.
