You can find a burner on the streets who can post a 50% catch rate at a fraction of what the Bengals are paying Ross.

Some dude off waivers and someone who has historically sucked and decided to be a family man during camp is getting more clock. The situation isn’t going to improve.

Direct this to Bengalholic, because he’s equally as naive.

Tate is a big lumbering guy with limited quickness. He isnt fitting the current scheme right now

Yeah, let's ignore his agent's charged language about the situation.

Let's ignore how anyone that has followed Tate since the start of his career, and follow the Bengals over the last year, can reasonably put themselves in his shoes and would demand a trade or at the very least be a disgruntled employee.

Let's ignore all of that. Why? Because the person who wrote the article and Tate's agent left a smidge of ambiguity in the situation when there clearly is NONE WHATSOEVER.

I made the title the way it is because it isn't just the likely outcome. It WILL BE THE OUTCOME. And this means that i'm just stirring shit up for attention?

How absolutely dun-diddely dare you sir?!

When Tate becomes more public about demanding a trade and/or it happens before the trade deadline, i'll be expecting a full apology and a tray of cocoa Rice Krispy Treats.
