Sometimes the best statement is no statement. This is one of those times.

He's an arrogant, douchebag. This only furthers that opinion, in my mind.

Meh, he shouldn't have said anything but I can't blame him for the pressure having a little impact. In terms of actual content I don't think he's wrong; he just needs to realize he doesn't need to defend himself.


BUT IF YOU DO USE FUCKING ENGLISH. FUCK.

So glad that trainwreck is on the Skins. He fits perfectly with them.

Look to Tony Romo on how to handle a mountain of pressure and failures with the class and silence.

So, I'm guessing someone asked him why he wears a sleeve and glove and he responded with that long winded tirade?

What a head case.

I know right?

When I opened this thread I thought of 100 different things that he could be whining about, and sleeves was not one of them.

He just did the equivalent of getting a nose bleed in a shark tank.

I truly wish Griff hadn't responded. There is no upside for him, even tho I don't consider his written response terrible. Just par for the course for someone who grew up in the context of his generation. And just not necessary.

He has no need to defend himself, he just needs to learn that it must be football first for him. People will hate regardless. And people will love him for his good performance on a football field.

Social media is a curse to athletes and celebrities until they learn how to use it appropriately. And he is still young.

Those of you who think he is a "head case" are welcome to your opinion, but I think you are buying into a narrative that is written for views and clicks. I respectfully disagree. We haven't seen the best of Griffin yet.

Winning on the field will cure all of his issues in the media. He needs to be quiet and let his play do the talking, words of wisdom for all pro-ball players.

No disagreement from me on this. This generation with such access to social media face so much more scrutiny than players in the past. Sigh, I am truly showing my age. This need for youth to have a running commentary on their lives via twitter and FB is baffling to me.

I haven't like RGIII since he stopped playing "Candy Crush" with me on Facebook. Big poopy head.
