I guess it's cool if Chad, TJ etc were doing it, but your qb? Now he feels all the more better and is a great presence and leader for the Cards during camp. It would have been nice if we had a qb that took camp a little more seriously, but he admittedly didn't, and that couldn't have been helpful to us. He called himself an "idiot" so I think he knows. Too late for us, but good for the Cards.
Yeah, it's definitely interesting. That said, we're not 100% sure that those guys weren't doing the same things when they were immature and idiots. I just chalk it up to Palmer being older and wiser.
Another thing ya gotta look at is the coaches those two guys you mention came up under. Mora and Belichik are pretty much no nonsense kinda guys. Any tendencies to do something like that would have probably been snuffed out rather quickly, whereas Marv is well known as a player's kinda coach......and then you have Zampese.....I don't even want to get into that.
Seems like they were (hopefully not still) letting the inmates run the asylum.....no? More of an indictment of the coaching than anything.....in my eyes anyway. It was an interesting insight, thanks for the link.
