From what I am reading and hearing (which may not be the whole story, of course) it sounds like Daunte is being unbelievably selfish in sulking over his benching. Especially given the resounding unselfish support Joey has publicly given Daunte every time fans booed Daunte or chanted for Joey to be put into the game. How does Daunte spell team? M-e. He repays Joey by sulking like a child, pouting to the media and refusing to talk, blaming the coach.
Yes, Daunte, the coach does make the decisions around here. And they are in the best interests of the team, not that you care about that part. What a surprise that is. And you should accept your coaches decisions, the way Joey accepts his role as a back up without a giant side-dish of ego like you're toting around.
Of course, we can;t expect much more than puerile, foot stompng behaviour from the knuckle head who has a *terrible* season before blowing his knee apart, then proceeds to demand more money from his employer. Earth to Daunte: in the real world NO ONE asks for a raise after performing like garbage AND blowing their knee apart when their living depends on their knees. That is a remarkably dumb thing to do.
Well, not surprisingly, less than a year ofter having arguments with new coach Brad Childress (busy winning in Minnesota without Daunte) Daunte is enjoying his new playmate Nick Saban and arguing with him.
Hey, I have an idea, Daunte... why doesn't Nick just move out of his office and let YOU coach the team. Heck, you have done such a wonderful job at the Quarterback position, you OUGHT to demand the promotion, right? Isn't that how Daunte-logic works?
So now, with Daunte sulking and Kevin Carter (a smart man, and a player union rep) worrying that this could fracture the locker room, does Daunte decide to be a good teammate and not rock the boat? Oh no. The Me train is barrelling full steam with Daunte at the helm, and poor Daunte isn't being allowed to have his way at the expense of the Dolphins season. This *is* still Wayne Huizenga's business, and a rather large investment at that. Losses equal lost revenues in advertising, in getting nationally televised games, in merchandising, ticket sales and more. So no, Daunte, you getting to have it all your way is NOT the most important thing to this franchise. I don't care how great the arm, if your attitude is rotten you don't belong here. The losing doesn't bother me nearly as much as your incredibly arrogant selfishness.
Get over yourself, or get the h**l out of Miami. :fire:
p.s. - I love you.
