Here is what Chad said via twitter.
Just waking up after a late arrival,I’ve never seen a machine operate like that n person,to see video game numbers put up n person was WOW.
Seems harmless right?
Read what Tedy Bruschi had to say about it.
“Drop the awe factor, OK, Ocho, Chad, drop the awe factor,” Bruschi said. “You’re not a fan, all right. You’re not someone who’s on another team or watching TV. You’re not an analyst. You’re a part of it. They want you to be a part of it. So get with the program because obviously you’re not getting it and you’re tweeting because you’re saying, ‘It’s amazing to see’? It’s amazing to see because you don’t understand it. You still don’t understand it and it’s amazing to you because you can’t get it.
“Stop tweeting and get in your playbook. Wake up! If you’re just waking up now — I don’t know when this was, six minutes ago? — get out your bed and get to the stadium and watch some film if you still think it’s amazing. If you’re in it and you know what you’re doing and you execute out there you don’t think it’s amazing. You know why? Because it’s what you’re supposed to do. All of a sudden it’s second nature. ‘I know I was supposed do that, yes I went 99 yards, I threw for 517. You know why? Because we’re that good and that’s what we’re supposed to do and that’s what I thought we were gonna do.’ You are still in awe to be a member of the New England Patriots offense. Join the system, buddy.”
So what’s the solution? “They need him to be a part of that jaw dropping offense,” Bruschi said. “Close your mouth. Put your hand under your chin and close your jaw. Then open your eyes and watch some film. That’s what you need to do. If you’re still in awe that means you don’t get it because you don’t understand it.”
Totally out of line by Bruschi for a couple of reasons.
He has no clue how much film or how hard is OchoCinco is working. Secondly he got caught up in his feelings because he is no long playing with the Patriots. Are you mad because Chad is on the team and you were forced into retirement?
Why are you so angry? Why are you talking like it is that time of the month?
Ocho didn’t say anything wrong and Bruschi who is the biggest Patriots homer on TV, kick someone while they were down. I am pretty sure he wouldn’t have ever in his life said the same thing about Randy Moss.
Is Ocho behind the offense, most definitely, does he need to pick things up a bit faster absolutely, but don’t give me this “Patriots Way” BS.
The Patriots Way wasn’t jacked until Tom Brady took over. When you are winning games people like to make these mythical titles, the facts are the best players win, point blank period. Cutting players like Randy Moss hasn’t lead to a Super Bowl win. It has been seven years since they have won a title. The Patriots way is consistent, but not a magical True Blood potion.
If Ocho does something incorrectly on the field fine be critical of him, but the twitter stuff, give me a break. That is shock ESPN journalism at its finest.
I doubt Bruschi would say that to Ocho’s face, but now he will fit right in with MeShawn Johnson, Cris Carter, Tom Jackson and the rest of the bias ESPN crew.
