Default Samuel: The Pats 'don't care' about players

I guess for some people money cant buy happiness. Hey Asante, maybe the Pats care about players who dont have "get paid" tatooed on their arms. Its obvious what you care about. Maybe if you cared to pay a bit more attention and caught the ball the Pats would have been 19-0. Amazing, two years later and he still cant stop complaining. What a whiny little bi-atch!

It doesn't matter to me. They're commodities and as long as we get value for the commodities it's all good. Letting valuable commodities leave for nothing, that we can't do.

they cared enough to agree to not franchise him after the first one. The Pats didnt need to do that. If he needs to mad at anyone, try being mad at his Union leadership who agreed to the CBA they are currently under.

I remember sitting down and watching him jump that route, leap into the air, letting the ball hit his hands and as it did I jumped up and begain celebrating the 19-0 season. Then one of my friends in the crowded room let me know that he dropped it.

Long story short, Asante Samuel can fornicate himself with a rusty ice pick.

I wonder how much he got paid for that muff and the blown coverage. That wanker can piss off.

Default Re: Samuel: The Pats 'don't care' about players

You know what? I don't care if the Pats care about the players. Remember when Milloy and Sam Gash went on TV and trashed the Pats while they talked about how much of a family the Bills were while they went on their way to a 6-10 season?

Football is a business and football players are supposed to be tough. If they need to be coddled, go to a team like like Detriot where winning isn't the biggest priority.

The Patriots care about winning. So far, their way has worked pretty well with five AFC Championship appearances, four Super Bowl appearances, and three Super Bowl wins. They aren't out to cater to the players. Until that formula stops working, I don't care what the players think.

I don't blame any player who wants to go out and make the most money he can even if he is labeled greedy or a mercenary. I think many of us would do the same thing if given the chance. They just might not be playing for the Patriots.

The Pats need to rebuild a bit to get back to the elite status. But typically chasing the high priced free agents or even paying some of your players big bucks to keep them doesn't get you there (see the Steelers and Colts for more proof). If the Pats are not willing to pay top dollar to players, as long as they can get those second tier overachievers I think they can be fine. They have missed on some the last couple of years, but overall their track record is pretty good.

Ever since I heard about that tattoo...I haven't exactly given a crap what he thinks.

You're a freakin' NFL player. In only a couple years, you earn more than most people do in ten years or more. So see how little I care.

Go PATRIOTS!

In fairness to Samuel, his tattoo says “Get Rich To This" which is the name of a song from a rap group called Goodie Mob. Samuel does say that he got the tattoo in college because he liked the song.
