some people tend to forget that sports is for leisure and fun and as a form of getaway from real life...he can do anything he wants with his sports career

The fact you don't know what castigate means is neither here nor there.

go_fins said:Seth needs to stop running his mouth and play football. If people like JT don't judge Ricky then he should shut his yapp. what has he done? whatever you say about ricky now, you have to admit that he played HARD when until the whisle blew.
Lets hope he does! :DSamphin said:I hope Minor runs for more yards than Ricky ever will. I really hope Miami gets the last laugh here to the point where Ricky sees Miami's success and wants to come back, only to be rejected. That would be poetic justice.
You're right, it is his life; he can do what he wants with it. Do I agree? No. Does Seth agree? Probably not. Do any of his teammates agree? Who knows but they are a team and they are supposed to be a unit all uniting to make a good football team. Seth can say whatever he wants because thats his teammate and they are suppposed to go out there on sundays and play with all their will and might. They trust eachother and I think Seth got hurt by what Ricky did and he's got every right to be upset. Him being a starter, probowler, or 3rd stringer has absolutely nothing to do with him being able show how he feels about the situation.Boomer said:I think McKinney should shut his yap. What the hell has he done for this team?? Nothing. If Seau or JT or Zach had said this then fine, but it was a guy who couldn't beat out one of the worst centers in the game. He should shut his mouth. I'm GLAD Ricky said what he said.
As for Dan LeBatard.....why is he LeRetard? He's doing a job. God, for once someone is showing some journalistic integrity and the guy is getting panned for it. Ricky doesn't want to talk to anyone but LeBatard. LeBatard's job is to report and analyse. That's what he's doing. Who are we to judge on Ricky's life? We make decisions every day in our working lives that annoy other people. We don't get castigated for it. Neither should Ricky.
Yeah he's selfish, yeah he's let us down, but yeah it's also his life.
I think we are pretty quick to forget that.
AMEN....the timing of it...and all this BS coming out of Le Betard stinks...think thats what most people I think can agree on!rickeyrunsover said:Waaa, who are all you high and mighty people that say go get a dictionary and blah, blah, blah? So you feel superior? Sorry if I dont concur. Self-righteous indignants need to get off their high horse, nobody is worshiping you, get over it.
Wow a teamate disagreed w/ Ricky's decision or the timing of it, but because he isnt all-world he doesn't have a right to speak? Oh, ok. If Ricky can let his teammates down after calling them out in meetings (Ricky takes a more vocal leadership role, article this offseason somewhere cant remember where) then Seth can speak his mind. I am sure some players are cool with it some are confused and some are pizzed. If you have a relationship personally w/ someone, it makes it easier to forgive and some have the belief that they dont look back only forward. Whatever, each are individuals and can react and say what they want, just as Ricky is free to do what he wants.
Oh and noone here is saying Ricky wasnt allowed to retire, they are saying, as well as me, it is irresponsible to wait until it is to late for alternative plans can be made. No matter what they do, short of getting Edge will most likely not be as effective had they been able to do something in April. If he had been contemplating it for months, share your thoughts with the team and allow them to put a "Plan B" together.
