Ray Fittipaldo: Blount not a good person.

Yeah, I'm with you on this one. He doesn't have to be saint but he needs to be a decent human being and team player. I'm with with him being gone. And, if Bell doesn't get hurt, no one missed Blount at all.

 

So you want a guy who quit on his team to still be on the roster? He was a backup screw him I'm glad he's gone.

 

It's not like he was playing, he was on the damn sideline, i can i bet he is not the first person to leave the sidline and go in early... And as far as quiting how many times has this team looked like they quit during a game, I have seen it posted here a billion times " they guit " or they given up, im guilty of posting this and i no others on here are to0... I could careless if he is on this team or not !!! I'm just saying could have been handled better than what it was

I also read Bell's practice habits were dipping while buddying up with Blount as well. Not that how any man behaves should be blamed on another man, but he was a bad influence and not wanted by some in the locker room... That's all I need to know.

 

It looked to me like he was saying "dude if you punch ME tricep or no tricep I will rearrange your face." Well either that or he was saying "how's about a thumb war for old times sake?" Probably the first one though.

 

Look's like to me Blount is saying "Tell Tomlin i said thanks"

 

Blount is a thuggin' idiot, I'm glad he's gone and let me reiterate what I've said before...HAVING LGB WOULD NOT HAVE MADE ONE IOTA OF DIFFERENCE IN THE PLAYOFF GAME AGAINST THE RATS!!!

 

LOL

 

That claim in all caps can never be proven right or wrong, just an opinion...

 

Agreed he may not have had a big statistical game, but he would have been a presence, known the blocking assignments and opened up the passing game more. My opinion is we'd be in the Super Bowl if on the team, but I do realize that cannot be proven.

 

and as far as i rem, i thought he played prty well against the rats the lst time we played them, i dont rem his stats but i thought he was moving the ball if i rem correctly .

 

LGB is a cancerous tumor. Belichick just knows the right dosage of chemo to slow the growth of the tumor. (see Moss, Randy)

 

Considering his behavior I would think that if the team didn't cut him he would have been suspend by the time they got to the wildcard game. If he wasn't suspend and was still on the roster, in my opinion the game plan would have been different as would their play in the game and approach to what they did. Would LGB have changed the outcome? unknown but things would have been different I really believe that just like I believe if Tate doesn't fumble on the opening drive things would have happened differently.

 

Tate didn't know the blocking assignments as well. If just a few of the Ravens pressures were picked up, Ben rips their secondary like he did before. They could not cover the weapons, which is why they had to rely on that pressure. On the Suggs INT, Blount would have chopped the correct guy and every receiver was wide open if Ben had time.

 

Is he good at deflating balls as well?

 

Here is an article where Blount was asked about his departure. He says "we decided to part ways". He used the word "WE" decided. Sounds to me like a way to save face from letting people know you got your butt kicked to the curb. It's like on The Office when Michael was trying to the corporate job and they told him he wasn't gonna get it and he said that he was gonna withdraw his name from consideration. LOL.

The guy is in the superbowl, I don't think he's worried about saving face

 

That's fine but I also don't think there was any "we" to it. That's maybe the first time he has ever even used that word because obviously he prefers the word "me" instead.

 

Actually I think he might be Shaner. This is basically a shaw case for him because I don't think the Pats give him a long term deal so he has to repair that image.
