A Touch of Conveniently Timed Class from Rick Bonnell

Seems a bit petty and unnecessary...

Why share this?  I mean, i get that PJ isn't some upstanding citizen, and obviously, that starts somewhere, but this just seemed unprofessional on Rick's behalf.  And why not share it before PJ is traded?  You don't think he will ever be in NC again?  Lol.  You don't think his family still lives here?  Several tweeters started going at Bonnell for this and his retorts were childish and laughable ("well my journalist friends said i'm right, so nah nah nah boo boo" and "you guys always want me to share stories, then i do and you get mad at me.")  He just doesn't get it.  

Also, while reading up on stuff about the trade, i visited The Observer's Hornets page for the first time in at least over a year, and man, does Bonnell even work anymore?  There's hardly any coverage...  such a disappointment.  You hardly cover our team, you hardly write anything about them even if you do, and you have been on record numerous times basically saying you hate your job, but find time to quickly get this little anecdote out right after the subject has been traded out of town.  Good job, big man.

Also, i have to take this time to say, MAN, i was wrong about PJ.  I thought he had his hiccups, but also all the makings of a go-to scorer.  In all honesty, i'm convinced he was not putting in the work, and i think his production and personality point to that.  He wasn't even shooting like he did in the d-league, and i mean wide open threes.  To me, he always seemed a bit chunky and like he didn't have his legs here, which is obviously due to a lack of conditioning.  Maybe getting away from home is what he needs, but what a disappointment.  On the brightside, he was low-risk, low-cost experiment that didn't pan out.  And after seeing his lack of improvement and horrible shooting (which is inexcuseable for him) over the last two years, i'm glad the experiment is over.

Obviously it bothered him and he's been waiting to report this until PJ was gone. It's passive aggressive, but honestly it doesn't surprise me 

What's really sad is the fact that he considered her "intimidating him"- like common dude this is a tale as old as time- people are defensive about their kids- it's in our genetic code, no reason to try and slander her

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
