Bray Wyatt Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Why cant it be both? Of course the reporter had the right to ask the question, and he had the reaction I would want my player to have. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the reporter had the right to ask the question, and he had the reaction I would want my player to have. So you want players to lie? He was clearly laughing on the bench in Q4 in a losing effort. His reaction is phony. He was just pissed because he did not realize he would not be called out on it. Personally I don't want players who are yucking it up on the bench the Bills are losing or doing a frigging sack dance or end zone celebration when the team is down by three touch downs late in the game. Clowns belong in a circus. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clowns belong in a circus. People handle things differently. He could have been laughing at something unrelated. Maybe the teammate saw he was mad and said something to make him laugh. Hence it was a valid question from the reporter. Him not liking the insinuation that he didnt care about losing and reacting that way is also appropriate. I dont see how this is necessarily an either or option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was personal embarrassment on being called out for clowning around during a losing effort. Anger is not fire. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dislike Jim Rome. Ehhh...Everett came at Rome like a wuss. Weakest “fight” I have ever seen, but funny regardless. I don’t have a problem with the reporter’s question or Derek’s response.

Gugny Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Football is very serious. If a team is losing, every player on that team should be upset to the point of wanting to break things and/or cause their family pets bodily harm. If a team is losing and every player on that team is NOT angry, homicidal or suicidal, then those players should be tarred, feathered and hanged. Because football is very serious. Grrrrr. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Did you ever see the movie Fever Pitch? Long story short it's about a Red Sox fan during the 2004 season. They go out to the bar after the 3rd loss in the ALCS. Fans are depressed. Then they see Johnny Damon, and a few other players, smiling, laughing, and eating dinner on the other side of the bar. Then he realizes if the players don't take it that seriously, why should the fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I watched a lot of Rome back then, but that totally put him on the list of don't listen to unless forced to. Homies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins Malone Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 To me this whole thing is a joke. So just because they are losing DA is supposed to sit there and cry. Maybe the guy said something funny so DA laughed...oh no! Football is a game...some reporters and fans will never understand that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
