This whole thing has followed a predictable trajectory.

1. Player drafted with high expectations.

2. Player fails to meet expectations.

3. Team has his back through the season.

4. As soon as the season ends, someone tells the press player lacks work ethic, doesn't get it, etc.

5. Player responds through press that he has seen the light blah, blah, blah.

6. He can either play or he can't. Talk is cheap.. The only thing that any of us care about is the games. He has 16 chances next year to play football and help us score more than 10 points a game. We never had to go through this bullshit with Ricky Sanders or Charlie Brown. They just showed up (quite out of the blue) and played. No one held their hand on the way. I say produce or be gone. There's probably some guy in the CFL that could take his place. There's no reason to be married to any individual.
