the poll wording is still misleading since it presumes the accuracy of sundquist's inherently unreliable hearsay statement which he apparently is already backing off of.
totally agree. I think this poll is just serving as an avenue for people who don't like Woody to bash him over something that probably amounts to nothing.
I'm asking if you believe the premise of the article. A simple yes or no. Don't get upset if more people distrust Woody than you would prefer.
Isn't it interesting that Bill Belicheat simply can't win the big one ever since he was forced to stop CHEATING??? "MR. Genious" becomes just a "good" coach when he doesn't give himself the advantage of cheating to win. Belicheat wins 3 Super Bowls in 4 years WHILE he cheated, and ZERO Super Bowls SINCE. I think an asterisk should go alongside all New England Super Bowl wins. Why should Belicheat and the Patriots KEEP those Super Bowl wins, while Lance Armstrong had to give back HIS championships???? Cheating is cheating
Hold on, the owner who has the final say in just about everything claims Tebow was forced on him??? I cant believe we have this schmuck for an owner. How in the heck did this guy even become an owner? No one is that gullible...
"Thread hijacking"??? I'm learning a lot of new "terms" on this site. That's a new one. Cman55, I don't think there's anything wrong with getting OTHER Jet fans opinions on this topic. I sent you very very cordial message in an attempt to find out WHY this topic was disallowed on this site and you refused to respond. It would be nice if the people who were entrusted with the power to "moderate" would be cordial to the site users in return. It's not too much to ask.
Woody came out saying u can't get enough Tebow and said he would be a Jet for 3 years on that fox newschannel interview,Woody was def behind this
There is no way someone forces an owner of any business to do something against their will! End of story!
And this is why Ted Sundquist wasn't hired as GM...When Woody told him Tebow was 'forced' on him, Sundquist laughed "I call bullshit!!!".
My god, some of you are acting as though Tannenbaum put a gun to Woody's head and said 'Pick Tebow or else' Personally, I think Tannenbaum was extremely persuasive, and probably mentioned PSL's to Woody. Woody couldn't resist. Tannenbaum mentioned snacks, feet, and Tebow to Rex. Rex couldn't resist. It's sort of like talking to an extremely charismatic guy, and he somehow has you believing everything he says, even though you know it's BS. Afterwards you're all 'how the fuck did he convince me to do that?' That's the vibe I'm getting
I guess you missed this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPtUi6SIdJQ If Rex and Woody are that easily persuaded by Mike Tannenbaum, then those two are the stupidest people in the NFL.
I notice there is a group of posters who systematically defend the organization and try to discredit anyone who criticizes the organization, labeling them "darksiders". Truthfully there isn't much to debate. It's been clearly stated it was a joint decision and now that it's backfired, Woody is privately saying he wasn't on board and was pressured in to. Even if you ignore all the evidence that contradicts Woody's statement, what type of leader throws his 2nd in command under the bus like that? It's cowardly way to act.
who said it was an easy persuasion? but it was Tanny's job to get players and Woody may have deferred to him in addition to his having a persuasive argument for Tebow. there is nothing in Tanny's statement to validate your position that they were easily persuaded.
I'm inclined to believe he's lying. I guess everyone will want to pretend now that they didn't want Tebow considering how it went, with Rex refusing to use him.
