TO

made a believer outta me. That dude is just fucking unbelievable. Having the game he did after having screws put in his foot 6 weeks ago is just amazing.

 

yep..and to show the bias against him, people spun it as him being greedy.

 

He played with his career theoretically in jeopardy.
He gets shit for drawing attention to himself, and rightly so, but in the end he brings it.

 

I changed my mind on him. He never gets in trouble with law, he plays hurt, I mean really hurt and he tries harder than most. Sure he is wierd but I'd love to have him ANY DAY

 

He played a great game. This game is a blow out without him.


TO cares about winning. A lot of guys would have sat out.

 

I admire him for playing through the injury, but the whole "if Brett Favre did it he would be heroic, and ya'll hate on me" is really old. If he didn't draw so much attention to himself in the first place no one would be considering this a selfish act.

 

It's the truth though.

 

I didn't stay tuned in for the post game . . . Did TO actually say the above?

 

he did say something along the lines of if Brett Farve was in his situation he would be looked at like a warrior and not being selfish like I guess people were saying about TO.

Like I said that's the truth because you can't go a single Packers broadcast without hearing how tough and great Farve is. TO played with fucking screws in his legs risking everything and played great. He has been getting props from all the media guys I heard talking about the game.

 

As he should for his effort . . . but it sounds to me like he's ready to be that putz who wants to make sure that everyone knows what a great guy he is for the great thing he just accomplished because his horn isn't immediately getting blown as loudly as he would like.)
