A littl..."Take a little boy and a little girl. A little boy falls down and the first thing we say as parents is ‘Get up, shake it off. You’ll be OK. Don’t cry.’ When a little girl falls down, what do we say? ‘It’s going to be OK.’ We validate their feelings. So right there from that moment, we’re teaching our men to mask their feelings, don't show their emotions. And it’s that times 100 with football players. You can’t show that you're hurt, you can’t show any pain. So for a guy to come into the locker room and he shows a little vulnerability, that’s a problem. That’s what I mean by the culture of the NFL. And that’s what we have to change." <br />Brandon Marshall<br /><br />West Coast Bill didn't put up with this shit. Nobody ought to.

He took his thin skin over to mommy to solve his problems, and mommy told him to act like a grown up and solve it himself.<br /><br />How about talking a page out of the Dez Bryant playbook. When someone tells you to carry shoulder pads, do something you don't want, etc., you say "No."<br /><br />I'm sure when Dez did that, he got a ration of shit from his teammates, but he didn't let it bother him, and it ended there.<br /><br />Nobody can intimidate you without your consent. Nobody can bully you unless you're thin-skinned enough to give them the reaction they seek. If you give them a reaction, it fuels the fire.<br /><br />For the love of god dude, did nobody teach you this in 1st grade?Roosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13777486064174631668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769468336490808451.post-9728663255831138422013-11-08T13:36:04.679-06:002013-11-08T13:36:04.679-06:00You can kiss that TWTR money goodbye.

The NFL locker room, is a place unlike any other to work. Making hazing against the rules won't stop it, much like hazing in College fraternities and sororities. <br /><br />As far as The Rockets go, their main problem isn't Dwight Howard, who has an inexcusably low FT%. Their issue isn't even the bad lineups McHale throws out. Houston's Achilles heel is James Harden who was a putrid 9-24 last night. Their "best" player, who is horrendously inefficient, and a turnover machine. Harden makes OJ Mayo mistakes. At the end of last night's game, Jeremy Lin, who had 16 points off 8 shots, was trying to run the offense. Harden basically ignored him forcing Lin to take a bad "Hero/Harden-Ball" shot. As much as Dwight gets killed, Harden should get some of the blame.
