In the third episode, this becomes an issue as it is revealed Okoye was let go because of parking in the wrong spot.

“Parked in the wrong spot,” Arians told general manager Steve Keim and team president Michael Bidwill. “There weren’t any parking places so he just parked and came running in. Tough (expletive), bro.”

Okoye was a former Olympian and Arians said “probably ought to go to Oxford,” as he is a talented and intelligent young man. But Bidwill notes, “you’ve got to follow the rules.”

 

You didn't cut him because he didn't "follow the rules", Brucey.  If you thought he could have given you 6-8 sacks that year, you would have just counseled him.

You cut him because he "parked" in your "spot" because (1) you were going to cut him anyway and (2) you wanted to look like a tough guy.

Well, this doesn't make you look like a tough guy, Brucey.  It makes you look like an asshole.

Why is this guy worshiped by the NFL Media anyway?

Boohoo. Welcome to the real world. Those with greater talent have greater leeway. Those with marginal talent better walk a fine line.

Bruce AriansHuddle.com would probably be popular.

So does this follow under the "there was a reason they were let go, dont sign anybody umbrella"..?

And yet Peanut Tillman says he will never play for another team but Carolina and Charles Johnson returned despite being cut and handed a lowball offer; having a coach like Rivera that players respect as a person goes a long way.

That makes him a liar.

He also comes off as stupid, for bringing up a parking incident, whether it's true or not. It must really suck to be a Cards fan.

lol.  Let that be a lesson to less-talented guys.  You need to follow the letters to a T or your ass is grass.  You don't want coaches to know your name for anything other than football.  Late.  Wore the wrong color.  Parked in coach's spot.  Anything.  Too much competition for you to equip them with things not football-related.

"Bruce Arians is an asshole"

What other shocking revelation comes to mind? The grass is green? The sky is blue? Water is wet? All three of those are more shocking to me....

Now his hat will always remind me of a hidden buttplug.

[GRWatcher]

Tell me something I don't know.

[aussiePanther]

I read that this wasn't Arians' spot but that of a season ticket holder, which was an issue they'd been having and one they'd been bringing up over and over...

But then I also read that BA is an arsehole who doesn't tip too...

So whatever.

2 years ago the majority here were slobbering on themselves over this guy.
