You, I, and no one else on this board know if Bledsoe loved the game or not. You don't like Bledsoe so you have apparently convinced yourself that he doesn't like football.
The ONLY thing we know about Bledsoe is that he isn't like Brady or Manning and willing to work hard all the time to get better including putting the time in at the facility during the offseason.
Brett Farve was very much like Bledsoe and escaped to his home in Mississippi the second his season ended and didn't return until he has to and he is going to the HOF. Does that mean Favre doesn't like football? Or does that mean that different players take different approaches to the game? I doubt anyone would ever seriously question Favre's love of the game, but he approaches the offseason the same exact way Bledsoe did.

Sorry to dissapoint you , but I was big Drew fan, I came to his defense when people said Michael Bishop should start over him, and the whole platoon system was stupid.. But when I saw Brady, I saw things that Bledsoe did not work on since 96 , footwork, good descion making, and he had good coaching. When Bellichick came on board it was too late, Bledsoe felt he was not coachable.. Tom Curren had articles back in 2000 saying how people in the organization wondered if he had what it took to play at a elite QB level, which he never achieved.. He had some good seasons, but never approached what Tom Brady has done.. And that is because he never worked on his craft, and as a fan of Drew's , that is what dissapoints me..
