LOL. He was doing social media while he was here. He launched TB12 here. I think you just glossed over it because he was still our QB and when he left, you focused on it and decided you didn't like it because he was a Tampa uniform and suddenly "everywhere." And please, Bill treated him like dirt at the end and now they all want their verbal bouquet at his retirement.
I said he was doing it while here! I said he changed, not the team. It was when he was doing social media, his documentaries, TB12 etc that he clearly had changed.
How could he not? He became the GOAT while he was here with a ton of business offers and off-field pursuits. I mean do you really think Jones will stay the ho hum bumpkin if he wins a couple of Super Bowls? He already trade marked MJ10.
at the guerrero stuff when it happened. he became active on social media in the latter part of his tenure, some to promote his brand. but not until he was leaving did he become more "open" on it. again, i don't care, but it's a fact. he changed. and suddenly all the leaks to wickersham and silver are not active. so who was leaking ?
So you finally admit he changed, I suppose we're getting somewhere....
LOL. Of course. I mean look at the world we live in with social media and the ops for athletes in terms of brand, platform and business ops. I think it is incredibly naïve and unfair to think a 23 year old who goes on to become the GOAT QB in the most popular sport in the nation would be same person in his 30s and then his 40s.
So what you're really saying is with Tom, it was a case of saying to Bill, "It's not you, it's me, I've changed".
You can't hold on to something Mazz that wants to be let go.....
Ha,ha. That was funny. I think this will all blow over honestly and we can get back to loving the guy for what he did here. He did respond to Bill so obviously there is no ill will and he just saw his retirement as Tampa specific.
I agree with you there. It will work itself out and it will be fine.
It's akin to Beyond Meat.So is that just beyond grateful, or way beyond grateful?
I will say, he should have mentioned the Pats and the fans. It was really poor form from him and quite honestly surprising. I do think he saw at as a time to thank Tampa which I really do get on one level but also very tough from a Pats fan point view. Usually he sees things like that but didn't this time which is unfortunate. I really do hope people close to him have spoken to him and he makes amends soon and comes up here. I have to believe he has more planned for us.
I thought it was a wonderful statement. What was Greeney's issue?
The first line about BB drafting him and his humble beginnings, I don't remember it word for word but I thought it was stupid to try and make something out of that statement.
