In jest? The team gave him every opportunity, its not like they cut him for zero reason. Whatever. He nailed 2 50+ FGs and then missed a shorter one. Its preseason, Blair. Let's see how those nerves hold up in a pressure situation. Bad karma, dude. I thought he was better than that.

I'm just going from a whiskey and beer clogged memory. I saw the little taunt and thought oh what ever, he plays for pete carol now so I really wouldn't expect anything less. I've always thought that team has shown no class under his leadership. Great to their own, but arrogant to the rest.@JimmyinSD said:

Stay classy, Blair. I defended this guy heading into his final season with us... but his recent comments/actions make him seem like a head case. Fuck him.

What the actual fuck? And to all those little kids that wrote letters to him, this sets a poor example. I'm not even mad just surprised maybe disappointed because it's unnecessary bullshit. It's classless. He needs to get his head out.

He now plays for one of the biggest D-bags in the NFL. I would expect no less from a Pete Carrol coached player, playing against his former team.
I tried to be positive with this guy when he was missing kicks, but it was time to cut him loose and now I don't really care about him unless he plays against the Vikings.

I guess you guys didn't hear that he said his gesture was in response to the Vikings bench taunting him as he lined up for the kick, even Carrol mentioned it. If true, pretty clasless by the Vikngs and kinda excuses Walsh's reply, IMHO.
