Football, more than any other sport, is a team game.
Terps, you're not wrong when you keep banging that drum (although it's really a bit much), but what you neglect is that talent matters too. Football, just like any other sport, is a professional performance event. Choosing character at the expense of talent will sink you to the bottom just as fast as talent at the expense of character. You'll just have a choir boy version of the same shitty team.
Sorry if you think it's a bit much...I also think it's a bit much the way people here rationalize or look the other way because a player is wearing a Giants uniform instead of someone else's.
And I never said we should have a team of choir boys...I simply think we should try to populate the roster with professionals that can be trusted to do their jobs.
At least one other person around here can actually rationally see a situation for what it is.

still argue with me that the character of the players is not an important attribute to team success.
Smh man. This train was coming at us full speed ahead at 200 mph and nobody wanted to listen to me when I kept telling people to move out of the way.
Tell us again about the midwest club scene.
In case you wonder why no one listens to you, that's a hint.
He's too busy blaming this situation on Beckham in another thread.
Fucking genius.

As. Ad as the 70s and makes it hard to care about watching these games.
B) Walk away from the team when it is clearly in the gutter
I put this up yesterday, and it couldn't be more true with this news
