WE don't ,you on the other hand refuse to admit that it wasn't what he said but the manner in which he did it ,that has many people calling him out .If your neighbor thinks your an ass, should he address you or your kids about it ?

But we're just some schmoes and the majority of us really have no idea how the inner workings of an NFL front office and behind the scenes coaching decisions actually work. We just voice our opinion on what we see and hear.

They don't give a shit about us and what we think.

This thread is effing stoopid.
I had totally forgotten about Fletcher till this crap came up.
Is it draft day yet?

He's 22, born Aug. 92', I don't get the whole don't go after a guys kid thing. I mean Chase called him out on twitter, saying why are you trying to destroy my fathers career, London replied he's ruined plenty of players careers. Unless I'm missing something I don't get why everyone says he went after Haslets kid. He responded to him.

What London did obviously rubbed a lot of people the wrong way, but in this day and age of making a name for yourself I'm not really all the surprised. He doesn't like the guy and came out and said so publicly. At least he isn't hiding behind some "report". I could care less, Haslett sucks, London obvious has some venom, sounds like he's a dick too, but who gives a shit, we still can't win a effing game.

They are looking for a tactful way to say Haslett is a clueless backstabber. They want to hear "Haslett doesn't quite know what he is doing out there and I think he shouldn't have thrown Shannahan under the bus the way he did."


...same thing really but it makes people feel good. Everyone gets a star and a smiley face!

Fletcher could have called him out as a bad coordinator without making it personal. Not sure why this is so hard for some to understand. Assholes gotta stick together I guess.

Aww ok. Social norms often pass me by. But I get it now.

And double fuck Hasslet.

Yup. It's the way the world works: assholes are tolerable only to other assholes.

I'm fine with Fletcher calling Haslett out, but he should have been more tactful about it. And saying what he did to Chase Haslett was an inexcusable d*ck move.

But combine Fletcher's very strong opinion on Haslett being a two-faced apple with the fact that Haslett covered for some of his wife-beating players in New Orleans, and you have to ask: we're ripping Fletcher for being an ass to this guy? Yeah, I know Haslett covered for Fletcher here, and that's why I think if Fletcher wanted to call him out he should have went about it in a more respectful way(instead of being so brash and aggressive), but some of what's been said about Fletcher on here is a bit harsh IMO. Maybe if some of what Haslett has said about people behind their backs would come out, some opinions on here would change.

Or it's Snyder and his PR departments newest scandal theyre going to run this off season, thus turning the fan base against Haslett, and his ultimate firing at the end of the season will make us all feel better as if progress is being made. (Don't get me wrong, I never liked Haslett before he came here, I want him gone asap)

And we'll all watch next season when we suck again.

This story is the drama that will keep us watching next year when we're curious to see how the "new defense" looks. It's what we did last year with Gruden and the "new" offense...

I'm still waiting

Snyder got rich off of marketing, he can sell these shitty sub-par rosters to us year in and year out. And we buy it every year. I gotta admit he's talented.

Ooh, a conspiracy theory! I love it! The idea that Dan Snyder is a conniving weasel turning the dials of an evil PR machine designed to trick the fans out of their money is very juicy.

I'm definitely planning to watch next season's episode, "The Defense Gets a Makeover". I can't wait to see if the PR department convinces Snyder to go with a 4-3 defense storyline starring Ryan Kerrigan as a DE.

I have a neighbor who I think is an ass and i have come close to telling him so but my wife has calmed me down by reminding me that we don't want to have a bad relationship with any of our neighbors. My point is that it is London Fletcher's wife's fault that he went off on Haslett.

No he didn't. He tweeted that he was disappointed in a person his dad respected and covered for. He didn't tweet that to London directly or ANYBODY for that matter so he didn't enter any conversation.

‏@10JICH
Sad someone who was respected so much and loved by my father would publicly come out and try to ruin his career #mindblown

London is the one that attacked him so let's not rewrite the events please. It was bush league and apparently the kind of guy Fletch is.
