Better be ready for the PR storm if they trade Stills.
So much for that "motivating" Jay-z playlist....
MODS: please dont be quick on the delete button. Read this ALL and you will see its legit in theory and NOT meant for a social dust up.
I thought it odd when flores gave that speech to the media last week about how he loved and admired stills so much, told them he was completely behind kenny's social protest (no, its not politics as some have branded it), would never dump him, blaahhh, blaaah..... . Just seemed weird, the timing of it was off, went before the whole team, praising kenny, praising the "struggle".
Afterwords i am thinking this is a 1st time h/c and taking that on, with media, pretty risky for someone who hasnt done a thing yet. Well, i think we can see exactly why now. It is a SET UP!! You can bet from Ross on down this was structured as to get behind all the finger pointing and poop storm the whiners will be bringing once kenny's rig hits the texas highway. Finz brass will point to that press conference with all the pro kenny talk and he (flo) would never get rid if him as he supports his protest.....etc..... .
Now, i DO believe flo is down with all this struggle stuff, but he ended it with "but i dont support the kneeling". Ahhhh, the soft shoe!! That raised the eye brow when he through that in. This was all to soften the blow of kenny stills being traded after the ross/trump thing (surely the brass were krapping themselves when kenny went rogue to the media). I think this whole trade (to whom ever/for whatever) was in the works, weeks ago, unknown to stills at the time. So the finz brass went into "how we gonna fix this" mode and a week after the ross/trump thing, head coach is singing the praises of stills to the heavens and flo owning the social protest saying "it is his life story". Pretty solid aye?
Smart. And as i said, i believe flo, he is down with it all so this gives the finz an out for the coming storm and ross lynch mob, flo saves face with black community and players, cnn/nfl network are happy (maybe, they have hated ross since bully gate) and the trade comes off as a bed of roses.
As i said, smart. This bunch may have a little more on the ball brain matter wise than i initially thought. I believe this team is going to be better than we all thought/think. I really like the scheme of this defense we have seen so far and the offense has some talent in spots and remember, they showed a very basic, super vanilla farce in pre season. This offense will look different when full scheme and game planning are in. This coaching staff is FAR superior than last years. I think something fairly big is coming and hopefully a quality right guard somewhere in it all. The team big wigs deserve applause for putting together that press conference sales job for the stills trade.
Send in the Clown(ies)!!!
