You sure are outraged that I don't feel a "thing" on the official website of the national football league should be considered very public.

As opposed to people repeating it ad nauseam on the tv stations of the entertainment and sports programming network and the official TV network of the national football league.

You should see how 13 year old Joey Picarelli rated the signing on Bleacher Report. It was so bad that a dude with over 2.5k blog posts and zero journalistic career earnings had to correct him and say that It was actually a B+ signing, not a B(+).

I would guess most of the time when they talk about Carr that comes up. They talk about Carr way less because he wasn't projected to be the number 1 pick for a whole year and fewer people care about him.

But fine, whatever, I don't even care. Calling a skinny guy skinny is racist. Everyone is racist, everywhere, except you. You win.

Carr wasn't projected to be a top 2 pick for a year and a half. He's not going to be talked about like Bridgewater because Bridgewater is among the biggest names in the draft, even if his stock is "falling."

They do talk about Carr way less, but I've never heard a negative in regards to his *frame.* They talk about his brother (sometimes as a positive thing, because legacy/learn from mistake), they talk about the system he was in. Of course his arm.

Well that's what I was arguing with so when you jump in to argue back it seems like that was probably your point!!!!

So yeah it just comes down to them talking about Bridgewater a lot more which like duh or that they would rather talk about Carr's brother when they talk about him because that's all anyone knows about him.

Now imagine you've been told all your life that you're the best football player on your block, in your town, in your high school, in your county, in your state, in your college, all the way up to the pros.

The amount of football players that aren't egotistical could probably fit on a single index card. Even punters can't fight for human equality without being narcissistic little shits that bring it back to themselves and their personal brand.

That's why I didn't give much stock to the "Johnny Manziel is a troublemaker" criticism over the 2013 season. Whatever every kid fuckin parties in college and gets drunk. Who cares.

I do buy some of it. Every player parties in college. Not every one is at the ESPY's and dicking around with celebrities and getting wrapped up in as much non-football poo poo that he was involved in. I think you're going to get just as much effort out of him as you would any other player, but he is going to have to make football a much bigger priority in the NFL than he did in college, because he's got a long way to go.

I thought their regular season match up was way more physical and a better game from a cloud of dust standpoint (and not just because Carolina won).

The regular season game was way more physical and a massive defensive slugfest. If it wasn't for Carlos Rogers loving up (TWICE) on that DeAngelo TD it could have been 9-6.
