Sometime after that we started seeing all the big celebrations and dance moves, and that moved to the egotistical WR which constantly needs to up oneself each time on the field. Yes Ocho and T.O. are the biggest prime examples of this type of WR.
I can only hope that future WR's don't buy into this and think they are the best and have to be a better showmen but it seems like the trend will continue... Dez Bryant, the Eagles Desuan Jackson running his mouth about McNabb to the media...etc. etc. |
There has been a perceived rise in #1 WR's with narcissistic personality disorders like T.O. and Ochocinco. But it's a small minority that is just exposed more on ESPN/NFL network and the like media compared to the past. Decades ago it was guys like John Jefferson and Butch Johnson who were the same but did not have the exposure that these current stars have.
Randy Moss is a special example however because I actually think he has a mood disorder and needs some clinical intervention...
