All Troy had to say is “we are not comfortable going any higher than our current offer (an offer that was a complete joke - - reportedly about 50-60% of what other teams were offering), and we’ve decided to go in a different direction. We wish Whit the best of luck if he decides to sign somewhere else.”
A little more professional than going on about “aging OT’s” and passive aggressive bullshit like “all good things have to come to end I guess.”
Seriously, I know you literally live to argue, but defending how Blackburn handled that situation is beyond ridiculous.
I agree with you. I think they also handled it poorly but I don't expect much more from our front office.
A guy like Whit who was a team leader, who fought and busted his a** every time he stepped on the football field.
However, Troy calls him an aging OT, and we stick by our offer. I wonder if they're that dumb that they didn't realize that would ever leak out to the public/team fan base.
