I get your point but candidly I get where Jwooten is coming from also.
I think more than anything it's the optics that bother people.
why the heck do these guys have to "tweet" and "instagram" everything these days? Guy has a nice car? Good for him. He's literally living the dream, at least in a financial sense. And speaking only for myself if someone is able to make crazy money playing sports, then good on them. I don't begrudge them that. You're worth what someone is willing to pay you. That's America. That's the way it works and good for them for realizing their dreams.
However from the fan's perspective--we're coming off two pretty embarassing losses back to back, 4 days apart with a pretty important game in Chicago tomorrow. If you're going to tweet out a photo to the world, how about something showing him and few teammates hitting a sled for a few extra reps after practice, or them in the weight room pushing themselves and showing that all the noise coming out of the locker room about "talks over" isn't just cheap talk?
I mean--right now, right this moment--probably not the best time to tweet Cowboy nation about the new Ferrari or Lambo or whatever it is that you just got. Why not just enjoy the toy without broadcasting it to the world? It seems that to some of these guys these days, making sure everyone knows they ahve nice stuff is more valuable than just having nice stuff.
And as Jwooten indicated and I tend to agree with him, all of that sometimes appears to play second fiddle to winning.
He's right. It didn't used to be that way. They got paid back in the day. But it didn't seem to be *the* focal point, at least not as much as it is now....
