Fox getting teary eyed while talking about Jake's release...

That is a fact. Personal friendship was a big reason why Fox couldn't bench Delhomme. Fox even said so himself. It's over. The truth has come out.

You need a shoulder?

:rolleyes:

BTW, I have heard Brentson Buckner say that it was Hurney that got more emotionally attached to players than Fox did while he was there, so you really don't know a damned thing.

They weren't hang out together buddies. They were "been through the wars together buddies." As a touchy-feely anti-war liberal, you wouldn't know that feeling.

You spooned with them didn't you?

Whoa whoa whoa. Hold on there that's ridiculous to compare it that way I know people & have family in the military & that's not the same thing.

It is analogous. The guys who make the decisions are sitting back in headquarters and never see the faces of the kids they send into battle so they can make a rational decisionand allow acceptable losses. Ask the squad leader who is with his men every day about acceptable losses and not being emotional and he would give you a very different answer. Sure football isn't life or death but surely it is emotional and has many of the same correlaries.

I agree, it's one thing to likw your QB when he is playing well, but you cant put personal feelings in front of winning, I mean that is the whole point of the game right???? I am a hardcore panthers fan and I know Matt Moore will do great for us and honestly I hopw we can re-sign Jake for a league minimum as a back up because he knows are systme very well and regardless of the last season he has always been inconsistant

I was in the military myself, and I have played team sports, so I know damn well what I'm talking about. I've seen some of the toughest men you could ever encounter that teared up when they had to say goodbye to some of the friends they made in the Army. So forgive me if I'm not the least bit impressed by a bunch of little internet tough guys that claim that they wouldn't get emotionally attached to a guy that they have been through tough times with.

Yeah I get the whole soldier thing I know how football gets likened to that I get that. The second he said "die for" after comparing it was a bit much though IMO.

In the military its just fact that you move on. Sure there is that close bond that is built but you know you cant stay in the same place for your whole career. Same with football if you get more than 5 years in one place you feel lucky.
