The only thing "unreal" is how many people here are happy with him.

How many times was James Harrison cut before he was DPOY?  We all know that if a guy is cut, it automatically makes him trash because no decent player was ever cut.  You hear that, Cam Newton?

I trashed the Bengals last year when they gave that contract to Hart.  everyone here knows that.  But Hart actually played a lot better in 2019, and you know what I did?  I actually judged him based on how he played on the field instead of just blindly playing the hater game like so many do around here.

I am actually capable of changing my opinion when the facts warrant it.  Most people around here just decide to hate a player and then they hate him no matter how well he plays.

You should send your resume around and see if any NFL teams need another scout.

I'm quite sure 57.7 is among the worst tackles in the NFL with his number of snaps.

NFL team agree with me about Bynes.

That is all.

I am no insider, just wondering. I find your argument laughable. You just want something to hate on Fred.

That is all.
