hahaha. lighten up, it's just a slight humor. Still, I stand by my belief that it's MUCH more realistic that Revis becomes a reverend than the Jets winning the next 10 super bowls.
I was never going for realism. Just pointing out both our scenarios are fantasies and that my fantasy is more awesome.
This thread is like two people going on a break. Petty arguments, I hate you I love you, you're an asshole, you're so great. Feel free to add your own.
Grandma Revis' age didn't give her as much wisdom as she needed. "It won't be because the Jets didn't give him a decent contract." what??? Is grandma Revis shitting me? She should actually be giving Revis reasons to stop this holdout and learn to make some sacrifices.
I am so done with Mevis. Fuck him and the horse he rode in on. I hope he NEVER plays football again. I hope he is the one who gets fucked in the end. What a fucking jerk. Oh yea and fuck his idiot grandmother too.
If anyone had a drumstick from the freaky looking kid with the Lloyd Christmas doo please report to the medical tent. Don't take the drumsticks!
She's family. Darrelle has to put food on the table. And we all know its difficult to buy groceries with only a $12mn per season contract to fall back on.
What do you expect her to say? She's his grandma. My favorite T-shirt of all time: "I didn't do it." "Nobody saw me do it." "I wanna speak to my granmaw!" The real question is what kind of idiot interviews somebody's grandmother looking for anything but what came out there?
I just think it's fantastic that the only real news we've had from Darrelle Revis since this thread started has come from his grandmother. I think about what MY grandmother would have done if some reporter showed up on her front step. Dude would probably still be eating.
My Grandmother owned a summer business...a stand with a juke box and dance area back in the early 70's (she'd been there since the early 50's). I remember her striding out into groups of unruly teenagers with A: An Axe Handle, or B: A Driver... F*ng reporter? AYFKM.. A REPORTER???? /jimmora
The grandmother stuff is bizarre to me. This is a black woman (safe assumption?) who grew up in the 40's and 50's, so this is someone who probably knows about real disrespect. She almost certainly knows about hardship, cruelty, disenfranchisement, etc. -- either directly or indirectly -- much better than most football fans today. And now she's saying that $12M a year is a "slap in the face"??? I mean, sure, stick up for your grandson, say he's deserving of more, fine. But "a slap in the face"?? That's just really weird to me.
