Ugh, I'm done with Meriweather - New England Patriots Forums

Not sure if this has been discussed, but Meriweather is finally on the "I'm ok with BB tossing his butt on the street" list.

The play that did it for me was yesterday against SD, Meriweather laid a nice hit on Crayton and then got up, all pumped, and did that stupid salute thing.

Problem, Crayton held on to the ball for like a 12 yard gain and a first down, and that play did nothing to stall the momentum of the SD drive.

It was like finger nails on a chalk board for me and just one more clueless act by Meriweather.

Good luck to you bud, have fun on your next team.

Meriweather does that for a friend in the military. What a bum, eh?

Yeah, we have tons of great safeties, lets ditch this punk.

He said he did that for his best friend who joined the Army, and will do it every week for his friend. It had nothing to do with the hit or the play, just the first time he happened to be on camera.

I thought he played well. If his big (legal) hits can inspire the defense to step up, I don't think he should go anywhere.

With incisive posts like this, it's a wonder you don't post here more often.

Incidentally, his friend is Willie Cooper, the guy who got shot in the ass during the course of Meriweather's firearm incident.

Is this Mike Felger making this post? He's the one we ought to throw out of Boston.

I thought he had a decent game yesterday... didn't see him bounce off anyone

Ditto. If he keeps hitting players hard enough to make them think about where he might be on the field at any given time, that style works for me. Some of those drops yesterday may have been attributable to that.

How DARE Brandon show his Army buddy some respect!!!

He should be suspended all season for paying salute to a man who is risking his life for this country!!!
