nodnarb Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 That take is worth $0.02, precisely. But he has a nice smile at least. I think the point they were trying to make, which Freeman was apparently to think to understand, is that Peter's holdout was a significant distraction all training camp and into the start of the season, and there's no way they were going to risk that happening again.

Lori Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 He used to cover the NFL for The New York Times, and wrote Bloody Sundays. For what it's worth, I believe he's also the guy who emulated George O'Leary on his resume when he applied for a columnist's gig in Indy, claiming a college degree he didn't have. Bad mistake. Guess he recovered okay if he's writing for CBS, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly feel like he is saying something just to add his own worthless 2 cents. What say you? Sorry, if the link doesn't work right. J The guy does make one good point. The Bills simply would not pay Peters, so they dumped him. And why did they have to dump him? I think the smartest thing the circle-jerks could have done was nothing. If you made your best offer and it wasn't enough for him to even bother playing football under contract, then fine. Let him sit. If he would have come back a few days before the opening game again this fall, fine. Let him practice, work his big butt off. And bury him on the bench until he absolutely destroyed the guy starting in front of him in practice. Then, make him work that hard week after week and force him to earn his status as best LT in the NFL. And if he became that in everyone's eyes, then just pay the guy and get into the damn playoffs!! What do you really think Peters is going to do in Philly after he gets the money the Bills refused to pay him. Do you really think he's going to be a huge bust in front of those fans just because you guys out here on this board think that little of his pride and talent?? I doubt it. I loved the kid. Free agent tight end, turns himself into a Pro Bowl left tackle in two years. Sure his ego got the best of him, but like the guy said, aren't we excited to have T.O. on the Bills right now??

The Dean Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think Mr. Freeman (or the headline writer) has a reading comprehension problem. The Bills said the Peter contract situation was a distraction, not that Peters was a distraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
