Randy Being Randy

He's only wanted 6.4 million worth.

He wants to be wanted 10 million worth? , 13 million worth?

Its so stupid that these guys complain about not getting resigned when they have a contract in hand for so much money.He was happy with that in 2008 and would be insisting on getting his 6.4 this year if he had crapped out last year. So he did well and that means 6.4 is not enough to motivate good play this year unless they sign him for future years.

Sports stars have such a distorted view of the world it sometimes makes me sick.

Play great for 6.4 and maybe he'll be wanted for $10 million next year. Mope and dog it in protest about no extension and you can be sure he'll get the boot next year.

Some of these guys just make me sick!!

If he's off the reservation after week 1,it's going to be a long year:

"Loud" Randy Moss says some in New England "don't want to see me do good"
The Randy Moss post-game press conference has been described with many different adjectives. Since we've yet to see the video, we'll defer application of our own term.

Ian Rapoport of the Boston Herald says that Moss was "loud" and "strong" and that it was "his most extensive statement regarding his desire for a new contract."

"I've been here for three years and this is my fourth season," Moss said. "When it comes to football, I take my business seriously. I think there are some people are, I don't want to say the organization, but I think around here in the New England area, there are some people who don't want to see me do good. . . .

"Any thing I say will probably be blown out of proportion," Moss said, giving us all more stuff that can be blown out of proportion. "Earlier in the week, I was asked a question about being unhappy and being unhappy doesn't have anything to do with toning my game down. I'm here and I understand my role is to take the ball deep and take the top off the defense."

Moss doesn't seem to be worried about the possibility of getting into trouble for his remarks. Asked whether he thinks he'll be called into coach Bill Belichick's office to discuss the comments, Moss said, "If I do, I do."

hey, randy wears his heart on his sleeve. i think he's right, but also selfish to bring that up during the post game interviews. these short few posts here prove that he's not well liked around here for some reason. i need a little more drama in my life, keep it coming randy.

I like Randy Moss and think he is good for the Pats, plays hard and I hope they sign him for future years! That said I will echo Saltheart in that he is signed FOR THIS SEASON!!! So he should shut his pie hole and play his ass off for all its worth!!! Either way it will only add millions to his next contract!!! Its in his best interest to shut up and play!!! He could stand to polish up his "Class" a little bit and not talk about this post game!!! Bill B. will sit his ass and plug in someone else!!!!

I like Randy Moss also. It's human nature to want to be secure and that is why these high paid talented athletes want a new contract before the current one is over with. We all know how much he needs to be handled a little differently since he's fragile, I guess insecure too.
I hope he stays for a few more years.
He is slowing down though
a linebacker ran him down yesterday

Yep, his timing was bad yesterday with his comments about getting paid, i agree, poor taste

Got to love Randy yesterday !
Starts out his press conference by saying he's not here to talk about his contract, then proceeds to talk about it for an hr. !
I think Wes Welker is in the final year of his contract also don't hear him bitching !
If a choice had to be made I'd give Welker a new deal now !

The guy is being paid 9 million this year, and how many millions has he been paid in his 13 years.
How much secure can he need !
It's no wonder why attendance is down the past 3 seasons with the greedy bastards !
