Fair Question: Shockey, Extension?

Recommended Posts

i never liked shockey from the start of his career. he was a giant, and being from new york, i naturally hate all the local teams being a panther fan (except those poor bills, i feel so sad for that team). then shockey becomes a saint so he went even further down my list. i always thought he was completely overrated and always seemed to never match expectations. i was really disappointed hearing that we had signed him.

that being said, i think hes awesome now. i hope he stays with us for a while. even if his abilities start to diminish, he has a presence that i absolutely love and i can see him as someone who would fall really peacefully into a mentor roll.

dat deal hurney. do it.

Him and Steve Smith are like two peas in a pot, they love talking poo to other opponents.

I had already loved what he was doing the first few weeks, but yesterday, on a catch he had early, Merriweather came in later after 2 or 3 guys had tied Shockey up and tried his patented helmet-to-helmet blow as Shockey was going down.

Shockey ducked it and when he got up, it was clear he wasn't very happy with Merriweather and it appeared he was letting him know about it.

I saw him say something else to him later as well.

Then, it may have been one or both of Smitty's catches where Merriweather tried to lay him out and Smitty got up howling, Shockey ran over and picked him up and was right there next to Smitty - pointing and talking smack to Merriweather, I'm talking barking non-stop!

I was so hyped to see that. I can only imagine how that makes guys you're lining up with feel.

I'm thinking we will, but Shockey is to be injury prone. So maybe Hurney is waiting and doesn't want to do the mistake of resigning him to a long term contract like he did Davis.

I don't think Davis was a mistake they built in heavy protection on that, we won't get burned on that one.
