That was my problem with him, too. Just silly.

yeah but if you know l.t. then you'll see that he's an emotional player. Nobody on that team wanted this game more then l.t. because of the fallout last year. so maybe just maybe he was seriously hurt emotionally cause he couldn't play...i weigh this as high as peyton manning going to the superbowl last year but he couldn't play cause of a seperated shoulder..he would be equally embarrassed and hurt

Embarrassed? I don't buy that. These are supposed to be highly competitive guys - if they can't get geared up for their teammates, they are being silly.

I don't fault him for not playing. I'm just calling him a sissy for not getting geared up for his team.

well at this point in the game what would you have done? maybe he couldve done without the vader mask and stood on the sideline for moral support but i think he might have been sitting down because of a different reason..maybe norv turner? did norv bench him when he thought he can still play???

I generally had no problem with Deion, but come how can this guy go out there and say these things. I mean LT is the premier back in the NFL. He seems in general, a pretty decent person. Between Deion and Michael Irvin, they seem to stick up for the worst players in the league (I.E. Randy Moss and TO). So Deion questions the heart of last year's MVP? Its pretty idiotic. I think that Deion was one of the best Corners ever, but he should keep his mouth shut and let Marshall Faulk and Terrell Davis comment on whether or not LT should have been out there. He can comment on Asante Samuel or Antonio Cromartie, something that he knows about and not be making statements about players who have shown that they are very tough. One final note, LT had a record for total carries over the last few years. He is bound for a breakdown sooner or later. Get off his back on this Deion. I respect you, but you are wrong.

is it me or does the good guys get riddiculed more? T.O gets a break..Moss hits ladies and theres no problem(if he was on the raiders and 4-12 it would) but a guy out of the light who is respectible gets a bad rap
