LT takes a play from Trump - New England Patriots Forums

The Predator · 01-15-2007, 04:55 PM

Think about this for a moment. Within 60 minutes of a football game LT took a bitter loss and turned it into a huge publicity stunt victory. The Donald always says that there is no such thing as bad publicity. LT took light off of a huge Patriot win and made the press again focus on him instead of the facts. I thought he was supposed to be one of the most humble guys, but I was dead wrong. His whining again today is just his way of making his name go further in the post season even though his legs will not. All he is doing is getting the nation to look at him and forget about a team and a QB who made a great comeback. HEY WORLD LOOK AT ME. FEEL BAD FOR ME. I AM THE MVP. PLEASE GUYS, REALLY LOOK AT ME.

I think the Donald has called himself a "classy guy" too.

Actually LT made himself look like an ass. That's not my opinion - that's the opinion of 5 of the 6 analysts on ESPN on Around the Horn and PTI. Would that victory be of the pyrrhic variety?

You are way off base. You don't know LT at all. He is a guy who avoids being the focus of attention and always has been. When he broke the touchdown record he gathered all of his O-Lineman around him in the endzone to thank them and make them part of the record. He was genuinely upset and expressed it. Normally he doesn't say anything. He was obviously crushed by the loss and that affected him expressing his feelings which he normally does not do. When he gets over this he will probably say to himself "I should have just kept my feelings to myself."

He's a very sensitive person *sniff* like most Artists.

But you know him? Does he have a nick name for you? Even the biggest team player can be the worst loser. From all that I'm gathering, it was Rivers talking all the **** during the game. If LT were a real "classy guy" he would have shut Rivers up.

I dont want to know LT at all. One's true character comes out under pressure. This is who is he. He has shown he is a whiny spoiled brat. You didn't hear Brady do any of this crap when he loses. He takes personal responsibility whether he is guilty or not. I am not off base, I am dead on. He made himself the center of attention which makes him look stupid.

What was he saying? Trash talking during a game always goes both ways.
Trash talking during a game has been part of sports forever.

LT has lost a lot of games in 6 years and has never complained about another team's post game behavior until this game. It was a genuine reaction to genuinely classless behavior.
