Pretty sure that was said after the Burress-mocking incident. Both by him and by everyone else.
But that doesn't make sense either as this certainly won't impress any other GM in the league.
Completely irrelevant. Gailey specifically told him to knock it off, else he would be benched. He went through with it anyway. He is.a clown with a bad case of the dropsies. Bye.
I don't think many are arguing that the rule itself is silly or that the league is over the top with this.The point is, the rule is there, there's nothing ambiguous about it, and they guy planned this ahead of time knowing what the consequences would be and still decided it would be a good idea. My son had more common sense when he was 3 years old than that line of thinking.
True. On the other hand, if you want to see the rule changed, it will probably only happen when people start getting upset at how the NFL handles this issue. So you want to see players continue to test boundaries when it comes to this.
Blind Bias much?
Was he flagged for the " Why so serious? " comment on his shirt last year?
Agreed, after hurting his team earlier in the year I thought he had learned a lesson. Nope, just goes ahead and hurts his team (and my FF team!) again; grow the hell up ########......
You're incredibly odd.

In my fantasy league we have small rosters, everybody has superstars at every position with more on the waiver-wire; it is becoming pure luck now and with almost no skill, to field a winning team.yeah maybe tebow should blame god for being such a god-awful QB who only gabbert is worse than
And now he's more likely to get the fk out of Buffalo. I think Stevie knew exactly what he was doing and this was a brilliant move on his part.
Your statement makes even less sense than Stevie's antics.stupid reply'Devine Intervention said:
I think he wants out of that city, not that game. He wouldn't be able to give Gaily a big *middle finger* from the bench sitting out due to injury.And yea, of course GMs will attempt to use it as leverage against him in negotiations, but he'll still get paid. His game on the field outweighs his endzone antics... it's not like he has any off field issues... he acts like an idiot when he scores a TD occasionally. Big whoop.
He has played hurt all year. If he really wanted out of this game, he would have sat out due to injury (he has a few to choose from) and no one would have thought anything of it. Every GM in the league has to cringe at this behavior and will use it against him in negotiating a new contract.
I dunno. He'll still get paid, but not as much. Do you think he'd intentionally cost himself $? A guy that acts like an idiot when he scores a TD will cost your team games. I do think it's looked at as a potential big deal.I think he wants out of that city, not that game.

You haven't paid attention to this issue at all this year. He has said repeatedly (before the season and throughout) that he wants to stay in Buffalo and has initiated negotiations for a new deal multiple times. That's not the actions of a guy that wants out of the city. If he wanted to leave, he simply would not say/do anything and sign somewhere else in the off-season... instead of doing something that lowers his market value.I think he wants out of that city, not that game.

Perhaps he's changed his mind now as the multiple negotiations he's initiated have gone nowhere. I don't really see how this incident lowers his market value any. He scored a TD, got a flag for excessive celebration and got benched by his coach. I think the vast majority of GMs will look past that and look at his football skills (of course they'll use it as leverage in negotiations with his agent, but just as a negotiation tactic/ploy).... we'll see though.You haven't paid attention to this issue at all this year.

I wouldn't necessarily take that as indicative that they don't want him back. Stevie has never complained about or clashed with the coaching staff. The converse isn't necessarily true, of course. But who is going to replace him? This team couldn't even fill the #2 receiving spot.'GroveDiesel said:
