He said he didn’t care about what people he doesn’t know say, yet here he is responding to comments by people he doesn’t know about a media session held by a person he doesn’t know. Clearly he does care. This thread is filled with people who feel so entitled to be entertained by a 25 year old man whom they’ve never met that they criticize him for doing what he thinks is best for his health and the well being of his family. It’s disgusting. I think he meant specifically he doesn't what people he doesn't know say about him. Which is different. Other than that I agree with your post.

Wow Ok tough guy. You literally have no context for me outside of a message board. You have no clue what I've accomplished or havent. Furthermore, I am in the camp for getting rid of the football season, I think its more trouble than its worth, specifically for situations like this. I was also not saying Tre White specifically. But, I think its more than fair to say the modern athlete, along with this generation as a whole is far more entitled than the ones that came before them. And just for the record, I am also not in the boat of saying just because someone is really good at "just a game" it doesnt make them better at life than anyone else, which is what you're essentially saying here. The issue I have with Tre is him playing this out publicly. Either opt out or dont. Stop being a drama queen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t understand why any public figure does social media. I do think his wife/GF is a huge component here. He talked a lot about not wanting her to have to be home all day with the kids and not able to do anything, family unable to visit - regarding the protocols in place for families. I think he wants to play, he seemed so jazzed talking about the team, tbh the interview was overall very positive and this was just a small part of it. He was gushing over his teammates, coaches, very friendly with the reporters etc. But he’s taking his family into account in the decision and it’s a difficult one Edited August 6, 2020 by YoloinOhio 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow I mean, this happens in all of society. Athletes happen to have better genetics and work ethic athletically than most. People feel they act entitled in times like this. People who make a lot of money in business tend to have that same work ethic, but get excoriated day in/day out in America for being greedy, privileged etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's trying to get out of Buffalo, but I do think there is zero chance he's taking a hometown discount. As for the Twitter stuff, yea.... players can get annoyed with fans, but when you get in your feelings on Twitter, that's usually when things go south. From what i've seen, our fans have been pretty good about all this. Of course there's going to be trolls, but that's always going to be there.

whatdrought Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Ah yes, nothing says “I’m being a mature adult thinking through the difficult implications of an unprecedented career situation” quite as well as a twitter outburst. He and Diggs must be hanging out already. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krf139 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 NFL facilities are hospital clean and there are more safety protocols than practically any other industry. Count me as one who just doesn’t get it. I look at the guy or gal working at the grocery store or a nurse or police officer. They don’t have access to the testing, world class facilities, etc. and somehow show up for work each day making pennies. Obviously he has the right to do what he wants. I also have the right to not agree with it or understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do deadline today for opt out. You really think this is about contract leverage. You know he could sign the Highest Contract in NFL History and opt out the very same meeting. You do know that Beane isn't that stupid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a given McDermott is going to have a strict system set up. Tre can take it all in and use what he's seen as part of the discussion. I certainly understand if he opts out but am hoping not. Also think with others he's hoping for that "23%" lol. So true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) If he wants to give up a year of earning in what can be a very short career, who am I to judge.
