Here is BB's statement and in red is what he was really saying.
"Over the course of the past several months, I have spoken with Randy and his representative about Randy's place on our team and his future in football. They wanted a 4 year deal @ $10mil per year. LMAO! When you see cows fly over Gillette is when we will do that for a 33-34 year old receiver.
Consistent with my dealings with Randy from the day we acquired him through our conversation this morning, it has been honest, thoughtful and with great mutual respect. I told him to keep his freakin mouth shut and play football. He did for a while, but I guess a zebra does not change stripes.
"While I will keep private the details of internal conversations with players and staff, suffice it to say that many things were taken into consideration before making the trade. Like that stupid press conference thingy he did after the Bengals game. WTF was he thinking? Maybe he was just punching his ticket out of here- and it worked.
In this business, there are complex and often difficult decisions, but it is my responsibility to make them based on what I feel is best for our football team, in both the short term and long term. I'm too old to be putting up with this prima donna crap.
I am grateful for the opportunity to have coached Randy Moss and aside from facing him as an opponent, I wish him the very best for the remainder of his Hall of Fame career." If only I had a shut down corner or Rodney, he's be thinking Revis Island was Disney World.
OK, this was done in an attempt at humor.
