Icky Poopoo

seemed odd that we never heard a word about an alter ego until he notches a signature win,  and it didnt appear that 9 made an appearance during the loss on Sunday.  Maybe this is legit,  maybe its made up,  I dont know,  I just know I want to see the kid succeed and the more attention he draws to himself while he is learning the game,  the more scrutiny he will be under and the brighter the lights will seem.  I would prefer he keeps his head down and just proves that taking him at 10 was a smart move.  Play  with a chip on his shoulder for those that didnt think he was good enough to be taken sooner.  He gets that chance again this Sunday,  I hope he packs away whoever it was we saw playing like ass this last week and brings back whoever it was that we saw against the Lions.

Like I said, love him, hate him, whatever but he's true to himself and this is him. He doesn't need everyone to get his thing or be liked, he's best when the chips are down. Bring on the doubters. He's certainly not beyond reproach, nobody is. Criticism is part of the deal and he gets that. I'm not telling anyone how to feel about him, I'm just saying whatever you see is just who he is.

Nobody wants it more than this kid, believe that. Ultra competitor. Just hang in there.

I'm just reminding myself the kid is 22, he's played 4 f'ing games, he's got a longer learning curve vs others in his class coming from Michigan and its a really hard job that KOC makes harder imo.

Yep. Just hang in there, the water is rough this week. Filter out the white noise. He's coming.
