Monday night games - Dolphins/Titans, Giants/Packers
Malazan replied to Steptide's topic in The Stadium Wall
wow.. Did the titans player do that because he hates Vrabel? 🙃😜 -
WR’s checking with officials when lining up
Malazan replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall
Reid's comments were rather surprising. He basically admitted they'll cheat until they get a warning. It's why they keep lining their lineman way back because he expects a "warning" about it before they start getting penalized for it. -
I've always said he was a douchebag. He just has PR people to stop him usually.
-
..but they won't be called out on it by the media.

Pat wasn't so concerned about the refs after they barely beat the Jets with a ridiculous call
-
They're supposed to check-in with Pat before they call a penalty on the Chiefs.
-
I didn't think there was going to be a duo more dislikable than Brady/Belichick, but Mahomes/Reid are right there.
-
Chiefs forums mad about Toney lining up offside? Naaaah Super pissed the refs didn't tell Toney he was offside before the snap though..
-
Mahomes yelling at the refs 🙃🤪 (if that is the case like Romo said)

Von Miller faces arrest in domestic violence case in Dallas
Malazan replied to ArdmoreRyno's topic in The Stadium Wall
I like how many people who have previously defended Bills players to "let the process play out" are now calling for Von's head. It's amazing how opinions change depending on the skill of the player. -
I didn't say that. You made most of that up in your own head. I have worked as a journalist and no editor would ever allow 25 anonymous sources. The way it's supposed to work is that you work hard to get your sources to let you attribute them as closely as possible and have to be willing to not publish people if they won't agree to a level that is sufficient. For example, a former coach says he doesn't want you to use his name, you suggest to use, "a former coach on the Bill's defense" or something like "former positional coach from Carolina". That's not what is done here. The entry level guy who cuts film can be referred to as a coach.. the person selling pretzels can be a team source that passed through one bills drive (oh, every single coach who has ever entered the stadium could also be a coach who has passed through one bills drive.. opponent, interviewee for a position someone who visited the stadium) so you can see why journalists would want to be as specific as possible. That's always been loose in sports writing, but this is egregious. The big reason for this is to allow the reader to gauge how reliable the source is and second.. to examine why the source is sharing this information. In this case, it's sort of odd that it happened a couple years ago and we never heard a peep about it. As you can easily see, I have thought McDermott needs to go for awhile now due to the amount of drama around this team, but I have a strong opinion about responsible journalism and I'm not willing to unhinge myself and forgive bad journalism because it advance my own agenda.
-
If he worked for a publication that had editors, this never would have been published. You can't have that many sources and not name them.. or even try to accurately attribute them. However, given McDermott's confirmation of the 9/11 reference and the constant drama that seems to surround this team the last couple years.. it's time to move in another direction. The organization needs some fresh air.
