A$ante being A$ante

Asante Samuel says some players were ‘brainwashed’ by the Patriot Way: ‘I’m here to get money’

The retired cornerback had some strong words about his time in New England.

***ante needs to let it go. Too funny how salty he gets on Twitter when someone points out the INT that hit him in both hands in the Super Bowl.

Every time he opens his yap he sounds like a bigger fool

 

[Wozzy]

If he intercepts the pass that hit him in the hands in 2007 we win that Super Bowl.

It takes a team to win a ring, but he clearly helped us lose one.

I just can't imagine being a guy drafted in the 4th round, where 90% of players flame out after a few years, playing for that team for five years and getting to three super bowls (should have been three wins if he makes that INT), translating that development, exposure, and hard work into a massive free agent contract, and then spending the rest of your life feeling angry about that coach and team.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Hes still bitter BB didn't pay him in 06 and put him over a barrel in 07

There was a reason for that. BB pays players who elevate their games when they count the most.

Asante did not. Instead he let Tyree run around and didn't make plays when they needed to be made.

F that guy.

If he had caught this he could say whatever he wanted to.

The worst thing about his latest comments is they trash all his teammates much worse than they trash BB.
That means Willie McG. Willie McGinest? I've never heard anybody speak anything about him except respect. Rodney.Brady.Bruschi.Seymour.
Notice anything Assante? 2 Hall of Famers. And all those guys above were better players-and men-than you,chump.
Get some therapy

That reaction speaks louder than anything he says on Twitter.

I know Assante was a rookie but Drew Bennett also bailed him out with that drop. Nice coverage Assante. Bennett was supposed to be his not Wilson's. Lucky he didn't cost the Pats the season.

I will never forget Asante posing for a photo with a bunch of cheerleaders in the pro bowl ONE WEEK after he cost us 19-0 with a big smile on his face

Also when someone points out that David Tyree was HIS man on the Helmet Catch.

He'll fire back that he only care's about his kids now..

All you can do is shake your head because it's clear that he is full of it.. Otherwise he wouldn't be the one bringing this stuff up

So far he is not wrong. The drafting and some FA moves did kinda suck.

Brady gone = 0 trophies.

The farm is riding on this season.

Kraft will go ape if Brady wins # 8. Breer has an article on whether Kraft bet on the wrong horse.

According to Asante, he actually wanted to leave after the 2006 season because Bill was trying to diminish his value. He specifically mentioned the Bears incident where he accuses Bill of taking him off the field for no reason for Troy Brown. He said when he went back on the field, he made some play (int or something) and stared Bill down. However, money always talks and I’m sure Asante would’ve reconsidered if Bill offered him a good deal.

The rest of the post I agree with. He was not the type of CB you pay. And that Tyree play was inexcusable.

 

[DaBruinz]

He's complaining about Belichick being the highest paid coach but forgetting that Belichick earned that. Belichick had 3 SB rings and 4 SB appearances before Asante stepped foot on an NFL football field.

100% accurate.

Asante cared about one thing, and it wasn't winning.

 

[Guts]

He needs to let it go lol He felt slighted which is fine, but bro it's been over a decade now

I think his excuse he’s said before was that it was too high. I think he mistimed the jump and reaching up for the ball was was slightly slow.

Exactly. I was listened to the PFW pod this week and and they were talking about Asante blabbing about the fact that he was going to get paid soon. This was the day before the Super Bowl. Bitter AS*HAT.
