I would have to have something to be sorry about first. I don't. You obviously feel differently.
This is 100% wrong.The clause is obviously there to discipline players into avoiding conduct that their clubs may dislike (i.e. doing anything that isn't being a shield-loving robot). In legal terms it's unnecessary, the contract language specifically says the team has sole discretion to determine what constitutes poor performance so there's literally no appeal rights if they say "We cut Antonio because he didn't catch that second touchdown."
As are conduct issues.Injury grievances are covered under a different article of the CBA. They're basically the only negotiated protection for a player contract.
I agree he should lay low but you can’t really tell him how to live his life or he is fired.
Imagine if someone accused you of something and it pissed you off so you texted them. They sent the text to your boss and your boss says no more texting or you are fired.
Yeah really.Uh....that's not really the situation here. You're talking about normal people with some random crazy accusation and a somewhat normal human response.
AB's situation is anything but normal. He's now exhibited a very very disturbing pattern of behavior. An employer absolutely would have the right to tell an employee to knock that crap off, especially if it's damaging the brand or the workplace.
crap it just dawned on me that Gordon's season usually ends due to falling back on the junk. It hit me like a train that it is naive to think there is not a pretty high chance we lose Gordon a long the way.
And Brown's a f'n nut case.
Not sure where you are coming from.No. The premise was, "Give him a warning about staying quiet or you gone." Not, "Give him a warning about staying quiet or you'll sit a quarter." If you say behavior A will produce B consequence, and you don't dish out B consequence when A behavior happens, that's terrible parenting and terrible coaching and, frankly, a terrible way to lead people.
The mistake might be saying that "you're gone" is the consequence for not keeping quiet. But that was the scenario you offered. If you don't follow through as you say, you are not leading well and not sending the right message.
Pull yourself together man!crap it just dawned on me that Gordon's season usually ends due to falling back on the junk. It hit me like a train that it is naive to think there is not a pretty high chance we lose Gordon a long the way.

I think we should hold on to him hard.I'm not sure I would enjoy going 19-0 with scum like that on the team. There's more to life than football. This man is deranged. If the Pats cutting Brown means no SB this season than so be it. They have six SB's. I'm a human being before a football fan. This poor girl has been through hell.
Cut your losses now Bill.
You are very condescending. I have nothing to be sorry about. Nothing to "figure out."Maybe you'll figure it out someday.
but..but..but 19-0Pull yourself together man!
I think this will go to 1,000 pages.What is my breaking point? If there enough constant news to get this thread to 400 pages, then I'll have had enough.
Not sure where you are coming from.
My only point is if the team says, "Don't do X". and he does Y then the team should punish him.
Sitting him for a quarter is punishment.
If we want to debate does the punishment fit the crime that is a separate discussion.
At this point, anything less than 19-0 will be a massive disappointment.but..but..but 19-0
