Excerpt:

Quote:

So the Vikings claimed Mills, the Patriots claimed linebacker David Herron, and Childress later realized he said too much.

"That's a case of me being a little too colorful," he said at his Wednesday news conference. "You guys wonder why I stand up here and go, 'Yep, no, and maybe so.' Bill's and my conversation should stay between Bill and myself."

And how does Mills feel about it all?

Quote:

Mills didn't want to comment on being in the middle of it.

"I have a lot of respect for coach Belichick and Scott Pioli and the whole Patriots organization," he said. "I don't know what happened and I'm here now, that's all that matters."

Such strange irony in how the press gets upset with BB for giving them nothing, but they prove time and time again that it simply doesn't pay to go behind stock answers.

And, look, BB's just trying to do what's best for this football team.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of his coaching friends didn't call him and ask him what was he thinking.

I'll say. Boy does he come off looking bad in this whole thing.

I bet Mr. Belichick gave him a call back too.

LOL, talk about stating the obvious.

At first, I thought that he was a hard nosed, Belichick type coach... no nonsense.

Now, he kind of tainted his taint imo...

My Bro in law is a hard core Minnesota fan, does not like Childress.. apparently he does not only dislike his coaching, but his relationship with the press sucks.. not like BB, who humors them, but just does not give out information. When he does, as in this case, he sounds stupid.

The technical term for this guy is "douche".

Well said. That's how I see it too.
