Umm, not it isn't OK that you are a knucklehead. But it doesn't mean a player can't mature.
Expecting everyone to show up and immediately fully understand how to be a professional seems a bit ridiculous. Players mature at different rates
in order to mature, it takes time and it takes the RIGHT organization. historically we haven't proven we are the type of organization that can manage knuckle heads. David Irvin, Gregory, Hill, Hardy and perhaps a couple of more come to mind. Irvin got suspended. Gregory has been suspended more than he has played. Hill showed a lot of immaturity and unprofessionalism. Hardy, holy cow, I won't even go there. if he went to New England, or New Orleans or GB, I could understand, given the leadership on those teams, the organization, etc. but not in our organization.....and all of the above had talent. and lets not forget our own Zeke was in hot water, got suspended (right or wrong, doesn't matter) and he has been on the front page for the wrong reasons many times and the organization covering for him.....
sorry, no thanks. we don't need somebody else's head case on this team.
