Sorry, but I’m not going to root for a Jersey. The Steelers ran their organization a bit differently. They’d sign FA, but the mid tier guys. The grunts. They would pay their own, though. Build through the draft. That was the approach. They’ve done Mason wrong

[Mik]

Agreed. So did Cleveland with Flacco.

Just watched Wilson’s press conference. I might be turned around. He came across as a really good guy. Snd yeah, I can see the Carlton Banks comparison. Not in looks, but in demeanor. Well spoken, intelligent, and excited. I can see where some would feel he wasn’t “black enough”.

[LuFins Dad]

Still think Mason deserved a shot, though.

Yet no one made that gripe about Obama. Interesting.

Agreed. He was their best QB last year.

Hope Wilson works out. I suspect the well was so poisoned in Denver, that nothing he could do would change some perceptions

[Mik]

Pickett to the Eagles!!! Didn't see that coming. I guess he changed his professional attitude once Wilson was signed.

[LuFins Dad]

Good lord. Anyone want to bet they trade for Fields next?

[LuFins Dad]

Evidently Pickett demanded the trade when he was told Wilson would have pole position for the competition. Kid’s gotta grow up.

But…I’m better with Wilson, but I am down on Tomlin right now.

There were 2 fan quarterback ideas that I absolutely hated. Sign Russell Wilson or Trade for Fields. Both were bad ideas, IMO. Well, Pittsburgh did both.

FFS. Chicago retreads twice???

And another “mobile quarterback” (that’s code for can’t throw from the pocket).

Obama is 50% black, Wilson is 63% black.

Also fun fact, Tiger Woods is 38% black, 12% white, and 50% asian. But you never hear about him being the first Asian golfer....

Didn’t mean it like that… Russell Wilson has black parents.. I meant that some of his teammates didn’t like the fact that he didn’t act black. He acted and sounded white.

For those unaware, one of Kenny’s criticisms is that he has tiny hands, and he really does. I mean 2” smaller than guys that are 5’10”

[Horace]

He'll have trouble reaching a tenth. He should stick to football and discard his piano dreams.
