DrDawkinstein Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 ok then that might not always be an option haha...if that was truly the time he was signed/knew about minicamps that may have been his only option however...first flight out of chicago to buffalo monday morning, no problem...in pads and stretching by 9 Yeah, that's all I'm saying. He let this slide until the last possible minute (or something went wrong like he missed his flight), and ended up in a pickle. He was signed May 1, so really no excuses for not having this properly planned. IMO, showing "commitment to the team" would've been just getting to work on time without some elaborate BS story. However his camp tries to spin it, it's not a great look. Funny, interesting, really no big deal, but not that impressive when examined further.

ricojes Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) He was on with Murph tooday, there is a reason he did what he did. So don't rush to call him an idiot or a bad planner. Even though I really wouldn't expect any less from some here. Edited June 7, 2017 by ricojes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianFan Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Here's the story behind the ride: http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-1/Why-Shareece-Wright-went-the-extra-mile-to-take-an-Uber-from-Chicago-to-Buffalo/ab76caa4-4c8c-4610-968d-c91ac62c3371 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Nope, you already have your mind's made up...check it out for yourself. Oh Cmon, I barely even criticized it. And as I said from the jump, it makes sense if he missed his flight. Didnt realize it was a connection that the airlines screwed him on. Been there. Good for him.

YoloinOhio Posted June 7, 2017 Author Share Posted June 7, 2017 Seems like a great guy. And you all made fun of his girly name when he was signed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridge Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) He spent $900+ on an 8+ hour drive? There were no last minute flights he could've booked? He either has a fear of flying or is in need of a new manager/agent. It took longer and cost more. Doesn't make sense. Edit: All of the above is irrelevant. The article in the OP didn't have the full story which indicates that he missed his flight. Edited June 7, 2017 by fridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corp000085 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Has anyone thought about the fact that Uber is a Bills sponsor now? So the ride was comped, the driver got paid, and there's lots of positive national PR. Naaaaa, it can't be that easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I honestly don't get how this is being lauded as some great story about how committed he is etc. To me it just seems like poor planning. If for some reason you can't get a flight (which you should have booked well beforehand) - rent a car for 100 bucks as mentioned above. well you are a Bill Burr Fan there are literally ALWAYS seats from chicago to buffalo, ALWAYS...both chicago airports are one of the main hubs that flights from buffalo and vice versa stop at...if you dont believe it, try to book a flight daily at various times for the next week, I guarantee you will always find a flight option same day must be a russ ticket selling maneuver Nope, you already have your mind's made up...check it out for yourself.
