    Can you imagine if you worked with an employee whose baby mammas were hanging around the office? It would be a distraction. Definitely not a good look in terms of having the moral authority to lead men, which is an important part of leadership.

    you have no idea how it exactly was. Did it impact Hopkins on the field? Certainly didn't look like it being the best out there for years

    foh with this bs. you're defending a guy who laughably responded to a fan in outrage. LMFAO. hey YOU SUCK TOO. yeah he's the one to talk about leadership :rolleyes:

    Obrien should probably bring his baby mama around more often then bc his decisions on and off the field are complete trash

    I absolutely hate BoB, but Jalen Strong saying that BoB ruined his career just made his case look extra weak.

    I'll defend O'Brien in that we weren't there and the conversation may have been taken out of context.

    He could have been giving him some fatherly advice like be careful with all the gold diggers out there, know who your real friends are, etc. I seriously doubt the conversation was as bad as being reported.

    pure comedy when some of these guys try to correlate your average picket fence family life to things like this.

    Calm your t*** dude. Hopkins clearly backtracked in his tweet and said it's being blown out of proportion.

    You can take Bill O'Brien out of South Boston, but apparently you can't take the Southie out of Bill O'Brien.

    where deandre hopkins sticks his penis has nothing to do with his play on the field. he's never been arrested. he's generally considered a good guy.

    to associate his name with a ****ing murderer is ludicrous. this organization really needs to understand how to talk to black players.

    this is the most petty and insignificant **** to call out your star player over.

    He didn't backtrack ****. He just said it wasn't a big deal to him and he's moved on. Are you socially inept?

    notice how it wasn't denied? I guess not. he didn't actually backtrack it and say it was false. big difference there

    bob is a joke unto himself, no need to further make jokes about this clown that is ambiguous(contextually) on a message board.

    I really liked TJ's bit a few posts above about needing "moral authority" to coach in the NFL.

    hopefully Watson becomes Duane Brown 3.0 then. that's probably how you will make the genius correlation

    In retrospect, wouldn't that have been nice if that inmate comment caused the McNair family to sell the team? Just like how the Clippers went from having one of the worst owners (Donald Sterling) to one of the best ones (Steve Balmer)?

    Regardless if it was a contact issue. U dont trade someone that great for sht value.

    Ex: vikings had issue with stefon diggs (inferior wr to hopkins), but their haul was sht time better than ours, explain that?
