Heels20X6 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 It's good to get your team fired up but it's even better to keep them cool and calm so they can think and execute the plays to perfection. I loved the Rex hire and now I want to see him channel players' frustration into execution on the field like NE* does. So true. Belichek has mastered the way of getting his team to buy into the "us against the world" mentality. The Pats don't want to just beat you, they want to show you up. I want Rex to find that fire on this team. I want Marcell to have his "Bart Scott" moment. CAN'T WAIT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Hello! @NicholasMendola Unless you were on Watkins Instagram, yelling at him about taking his kid to Disney, he wasn't calling you a loser. If you were... #Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I'll never understand the mentality of fans who are called losers by an athlete and then not only make excuses for him but continue to buy tickets to support his game check. Because we aren't the douchebags that set him off? I am confident with my life, and don't need Sammy Watkins affirmation that I am not a loser.

birdog1960 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 No. He wasn't. He ONLY was talking about people who bad mouthed him for being injured. Just them. Not all fans, not all fans who criticized him, not all menial job workers. Only people that bitched about him taking his family to Disney when he apparently should have been playing. and you know this how? it amazes me that so many here rabidly hate writers that our critical of the bills but it's fine for a player to be critical of fans.

It wasn't a separate Instagram post. He posted a pic of himself at Disney world with his daughter. Cue the ignorant comments of people blasting him for being injured, attacking him for walking at Disney with an ankle sprain,etc etc. Then he responded with his post under the same picture. He has now issued two statements about it not being toward all fans or even Bills fans at all. Edited October 28, 2015 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 and you know this how?.Ummm... Because that is what he specifically said? Here is a little reminder to go by that may help you... For example, when someone starts an Instagram post with, "To all you black people..." he is not addressing white people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattsox Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I imagine there would be 1000x more fans telling you to STFU than Sammy. But keep showing off your intelligence. Thank you. I will continue to do so. I appreciate your critique very much by the way. Very stylish and poignant. Appreciations and congratulations to you!!!

NoSaint Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 This debate is a slippery slope and I agree with everything you said in general terms. Grammar nazis should stay away from social media. But... He confused the word "once" for "wants" I'm not sure we're really talking about the same thing here. This was no character saving device. This was an error I would not expect from a 3rd grader. i havent made that specific mistake before but ill admit to my fingers typing some ridiculous stuff, despite me knowing full well the proper spelling. subbing a word that sounds vaguely similar is something ive been guilty of doing.... though its distinctly possible that the kid is just legit dumb when writing.

Sure you can be offended, but you can also be rational and know Sammy was just taking a shot at the people who were taking a shot at him. It's easy to be offended, hard to think rationally.

For example, when someone starts an Instagram post with, "To all you black people..." he is not addressing white people. pssst, pssst.

birdog1960 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 No! Just the ones who are taking time away from other matters to harrass him. we will agree to disagree then. at any rate, it's bad behavior and it should be embarrassing to those associated with him. sadly, many of those people are probably defending him as well. that's not going to help him when statistically he's likely to be broke and doing some "little" job 3 years out of the league.

No. He's not. He's speaking to a specific, well defined subset - to all those that criticized him about taking his family to Disney - to which anyone outside of that specific subset is not being referred to. Thank you. I will continue to do so. I appreciate your critique very much by the way. Very stylish and poignant. Appreciations and congratulations to you!!! Any time. Glad I could help.
