What a cancer that Randy Moss is. Destroying the locker room, I tell you. They never should have broken the mold of the Patriots organization by going after such a loud-mouthed "me first" player.

That probably came as quite a shock to Mr. Aaron.

Yeah, I wish Barry Bonds got to play in an integrated league.

Pretty easy to not be a cancer when you're on a great team that has proven it can win championships.

It was a perfect fit and just about anywhere else in the league he would be a problem.

Why would I have sour grapes? I hate the Raiders. I just know when a guy is playing hard and when he's packed it in and Moss packed in the last year and a half he was in Oakland.
I agree. It wouldnt matter if Tom Brady was throwing him the ball in oakland with Porter suspended, HC and OC using 7 step drops and go long strategy with an OL that couldnt block. Brady would have had almost just as bad numbers. And Moss would have quit on brady too. I dont hate NE but if they make it to the super bowl i would hope Moss gets injured and cant play. It would be bad enough to see this quitter get a championship let alone play in one. Its not like NE needs Moss in order to win a championship as much as Moss needs NE.

and he'll have 12 more before the season is over, doesn't mean what he did in Minnesota or Oakland was right.

You sound like most Eagles fans when we got T.O. I think the fact that the Pats have gotten over the hump makes it nearly impossible for Moss to destroy a team like T.O. has done in the past but I wouldn't be so cocky until year 2 goes by without problems.

What he did in Minnesota was right by me. Seriously, people here liked the guy then and they like the guy now. If what he did here was quit, I wish all our players quit!

Playing with the injuries he had, at the level he had. I really admired the effort he gave in his final years here.

ya, Moss is great, its too bad a WR needs a QB with a pocket to be successful, or Randy could have been good in Oakland too.

There have been many receivers who have had bad QB's playing behind terrible OL's that did much better than Moss in Oakland.

Top 3-5 all-time WR when he tries, but he wasn't trying in Oakland and placing all the blame on other players is silly.

Said fullback Heath Evans, "Obviously I only know what I've seen here, but I see a guy who asks questions in team meetings, I see a guy who seems to be in his playbook because he knows it.

"I see a guy that is constantly challenging other people, whether it's defensive backs or other wide receivers, to step up to the plate. I see a guy that works hard, who knows how he needs to work. Those intangibles are hard to find and they're all in one guy.

"What he's done here, I couldn't have a better teammate."

Unlike T.O., Moss actually brought his game durig non-contract negotiation years. T.O. is as reliable as the weather compared to Moss.

And this is from a guy that personally doesnt' agree with the mans attitude, but you can't argue with the results. As previously mentioned, this is the first good quarterback he's had since Culpepper (yes I thought Culpepper wasn't that bad of a QB)
