Anything else?
Do I need to refer to my "politics" post before? Lol.
Are you watching the last dance? You will learn what I mean by "politics". The best players (including AJ), know how to treat the media and how to get what they want/need by using them, but they have to be political about it and not marshawn lynch it up.
Burrow is very smart, he's going to be an MJ in front of the camera. AJ is the same.
Not sure what AJ would gain from telling the team he currently plays for, that (publicly) he wouldn't like to retire with them.
Think of AJ Green, someone who should have easily been in the HOF say, as a chlid, I want to grow up and play for an NFL franchise and not win a playoff gamebefore I retire, lol.
Besides it all, we can't really trust the person in front of the camera (that goes for other situations than sports). You can find a lot of anecdotcal stories that Brady and Lebron are assholes, but not sure you'd gather that from their persona. "Image, is everything".
