Yeah what really happened between Big Cat and Rosinski? Ros was one of the best in the league.

Rosinski believed he should have been given an NFC Championship ring in 2004, and mouthed off about it to the wrong people, making some comments critical of Jerry. Jerry called him into his office and asked whether he had said what was relayed to him. Rosinski admitted it and was fired forthwith.

Wow... Didn't know it had went up to JR in that fashion. I knew about the issue with him feeling he deserved a ring, but didn't know he badmouthed JR. Definitely makes me think less of him, although I do think he deserved a ring.

As far as Mick, I think a lot of people were too hard on him because Rosinski was just that awesome, and their styles are so different. The first few years he was here, I didn't really care for his announcing style, but he really has grown on me. It's just the occasional incident like last night that brings me back to his first few years. He seems much more comfortable in the role now and as I said, he, Szoke, and Gene have great chemistry.

In all honesty, I do prefer to hear our homer-tinged radio broadcast during regular season games, but I can't listen to the radio and watch it at the same time.

Oh and last night, he also followed that with another Mick-ism when Poole had a carry... "And Poole splashes down to the 15." LOL.

What gadget is this? I normally watch the game withe headphones in streaming most of your local radio broadcasts and the delay is something I would love to be rid of.

There's a radio called "SportsSync" that's just for this purpose. $59.95

I'm not sure "badmouthed" is the best description. It was more like "Jerry tells us that we're all one big family, everyone plays a role, but then he won't share the fruits of our labor" etc. It wasn't anything like "Jerry's a jerk." Rosinski just talked too much. Apparently some play-by-play buddy of his got a Super Bowl ring so he felt like he should be treated the same way because JR made a point of saying that he wanted to treat his employees as good as or better than any team in the league. And Rozinski continued to whine about it after he inquired and was told the decisions on rings were final, which is what got him fired. JR is old-school. It's OK to have a problem with a decision, but you don't keep infecting the rest of the organization with negative comments once you've said your piece to the people in charge.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
