NFL Network's Breakdown on Ramsey

[sportscurmudgeon]

Was anyone surprised at anything reported here?

He did what athletes are taught to do these days; praise everyone and everything and mention how hard you are working and how you need to take your game to the next level. :frusty:

Even if he believed that Joe Gibbs was a senile old fool who could not put his own Depends on without assistance {I'm sure Ramsey does not think that!] he would not say it. He'd say that Gibbs is a wonderful and creative genius who thinks only about winning and making each roster member a better person and player tomorrow than he is today.

Recap of interview:

1. Information Content = ZERO

2. Fan evaluation = Warm and Fuzzy

3. Team Evaluation = Excellent because now it is over and no one wet themselves in the process.

Man, it must suck to go thruough life with such a negative outlook on things that you had to denigrate this interview just for the sheer purpose of crapping on it.. In the boring period before camp forgive people for getting a little excited to actually see and hear from someone on the team for 5 minutes..

Actually, my life is really great. With few exceptions, I get to do whatever I feel like doing when I feel like doing it. So, I'm really not unhappy.

When folks start toget rhapsodic about the most meaningless of events - like an interview that reveals that Patrick Ramsey likes cuddley kittens and does not enjoy having a proctological exam - it is time to add a small measure of reality to the discussion. If you prefer to continue to hand on every word that drops in interviews such as these, go right ahead. But they don't mean squadoosh!

Oh, by the way, rasslin' is indeed "predetermined" in terms of its outcome. Just wanted everyone to be sure they were on board with that...
