Does he seem like a jogger to anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|westside bengal| Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 I believe both Mike and Kate are known to be runners. Keeps the miles down on the Lumina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Good read. A more real world look at the crazy processes. Gained a lot of respect-agent wise-for JT. He's nobody's patsy in deal making that is for sure. He also obviously has his clients' interests on the top shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HairOnFire Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 The article is just the first in a series. Next up, the inside story about how Pat Sims agreed to return to the Bengals after Katie Blackburn agreed to refill the candy dish in her office with minature Twix bars shortly after Sims declared he'd never sign for peanuts again.

T-Dub Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Don't get out the torches and pitchforks but I had to wonder.. Is it possible that he chose the Bengals at least in part because Zimmer is such a hardass? IDK if it's the case for MJ but you know there are going to be free agents that would rather go somewhere a little more, eh let's say relaxed. And unfortunately I think this might be one of those places. Again not so much a knock on MJ in particular, more something that came to mind when thinking about what might go into the decision-making process for a vet FA. He seems to have a good relationship with Zim so I doubt that was on his mind, but other players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tigre Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Nah...don't think that was it. It is, to me anyway, a group who just like each other--the embodiment of being a team. Zimmer may have been that "hard ass"...but the overall unit (offense included) functions regardless. To me, that is formed from some other level...dare I say, ML?

Yeah, ultimately I agree but I wonder about some of the other players. That wasn't meant to be a knock on MJ. Really what concerns me is our coaches having that "player's coach" reputation. You remember how the inmates were running the asylum in Hue's WR room? Can't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HairOnFire Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 actually, it was Snickers and M&M's. I can't remember when I told a bullshit joke before and then watched as it all came to life in a photo. I'm practically speechless and maybe a little bit frightened.
