WTF do folks expect Carson to say?
“I quit because my wife told me to”
“I quit because the fans hurt my feelings”
“I quit because I missed the West Coast”

The bottom line is the guy quit on his team, city, and team mates and he did this while there was a lockout going on. At the time when a team needed a leader the most; Carson was fueling his selfish needs and left his incompetent brother trying to put together the pieces.

I have zero idea how anybody can “respect” what this guy did. Folks now hear him say “lack of moves” and automatically point the finger at the coach that has taken us from laughing stock to a team you can write in to the post season year in and year out. This team did all they could to keep Carson happy while he was here. Bump Carson Palmer and anyone that respects what he did to this team. I hope his former team mates feel the exact same way.

I for one have little to no respect for what Palmer did, and more importantly how he did it. I do however have some empathy for why he did it.

As for Marvin, I have respect - a lot of it - for turning this franchise around. But he needed to be gone after 08, he should have been gone after 10 for sure !

But his run of taking this team anywhere at all peaked long ago ! And without an epic shift in how this team is run isn't going to change anytime soon. I hold out hope it will, but deep inside I know it's mostly a pipe dream to believe anything will change under the current Owner/HC.
