The latest from Freddie Mitchell in Peter King's Monday Morning Quarterback:



WHY DO I LET THIS FOOL PISS ME OFF SO MUCH?!!!!!!!!

To borrow a line from Frasier Crane in Cheers... "Freddy, what color is the sky in your world?"

Jim,
I have no idea. I'm no huge fans of the Pats, but there is only one player I dislike. I still respect that he's a good player. I'm not a huge fan of the Pats fanbase (which is about to balloon even further) either, though I like you

What do you care what some second-string first round bust says about two HoFers AFTER his team loses, while simultaneously complaining about TO getting playing time (and actually catching the ball)???

He's a blip, and not even that. Thanks to being a Cowboys fan not living in Dallas, I've faced insurmountable whines from friends (and non-friends alike). I just smile. My team has 8 appearances and 5 trophies to their name. Two of the losses were by 4 points to the mighty Steelers. So I smile.

You have the first dynasty of the new decade/millenium. You have the best coach in football. One of the best QB/RB/WR's, and the best defensive unit. So just smile at sour grapes. That's the advantage of WINNING.

Pro Bowl stunk, as expected. It's always fun to watch first teamers player special teams, but the hamstrung defense prevents it from being a game. Hines made the play of the night by stealing an onside kick and muscling his way to a TD. While he may not be on kick returns, he probably *IS* on the hands team, and used to being out there for that.

Chuck, you're right, of course. Thanks for putting it in perspective.

Like I said before, I'd love to be on hand when Freddy Mitchell and reality are introduced.

I remember after the Super Bowl a couple of years ago, Jerry Porter made a comment about Tampa Bay's secondary not being very good and I thought it was sour grapes then and think so now. But at least Porter caught a touchdown in the Super Bowl and at least he stopped bashing the winning team after that one interview...Freddy is talking himself in to employment elsewhere at this rate.

Unless you had the AFC -3.

I think it's time for the 2005 NFL off-season thread (with the draft coming up in April.) Please join us there. This thread will be closed soon enough...
