I can't post the twitter link for some reason but bobby belt is going off on the 1053 the fan this morning. Talking about Dak and Mike's not liking each other and alike being paranoid about Dan Quinn. How Mike pushed amari out and it pissed off the locker room. Wild stuff.

Bobby Belt, Shan and Choppy actually all those guys that are on everyday on that radio show are completely clueless and idiots, very opinionated and very ignorant opinions

Belt has been a Dak apologist so take what he says with a grain of salt.

BS. Jerry was mad that Amari wouldn't get the shot. You could hear it in Jerry's voice, he thought it made the player disloyal. Hell he probably thought it made Amari a threat to his own health.
Yeah Jerry was not happy he has to sit out.

Any talk about money or McCarthy pushing him out is BS.

Amari wasn't playing at a No. 1 level despite being paid like a No. 1 receiver. I would have preferred that we kept him, but his contract had everything to do with why we didn't. The front office had to make a choice, pay Gallup less to be a No. 2 to Lamb's No. 1 or overpay Amari (maybe they could have renegotiated Cooper's deal, but we don't know that). They chose the cheaper option and it blew up in their faces. There may have been other aspects that contributed to the choice, such as the shot decision, but it came down to the Joneses making a choice to go with the less costly option.

I think Amari basically giving the finger to Jethro about taking the shot was probably a bigger factor

That's more of a reason for Jerry to get rid of him not for Mike to hate him. Sounds like a lie from Mr belt
