Yeah well... He's a whiner so no quarters given. I would say the same if it were some dork from say the Chargers or Bears or... But whiner players have a special place in the peanut gallery of life as far as I'm concerned.

Why? I love football as much as the next guy. Hell, more than the vast majority of the "next guys" in this world but it's just a game. Kaepernick comes off as a douche but he's still a person playing a game. Hating the 49ers as a team? I totally understand. But hating the players as people (off the field), I just think it goes too far.

They're just like any other person. Don't see why a job should define them.

A little off topic but shouldn't we have higher expectations for these guys? It's a privilege to be a NFL football player.

No. It's not a privilege, it's a job. It's no more a privilege than it is for Stu to own his restaurant. They earned it. And being a NFL player is what they're employed to do. Not who they are.

I'm a fan. Since when do I need to be rational?

I don't hate on people like this dork. I'll make fun of him and toss around BS but when it comes down to it, I only hate people based on actions that deserve it. Being a dork doesn't qualify.

That being said, all players/fans wearing whiner, shecock, Tardinals, gear are douches unless they prove otherwise or are friends of mine.

The best part of this story is that it did not originate with Foles telling it on Twitter or Facebook or with a self-serving Instagram.
I really appreciate players who do the right thing or a simple good deed simply because its the right thing to do and not because of a photo-op or as click bait.

Kudos to Foles. I wanted him to succeed here because I am a Rams fan, but now I would like to see him do well for additional reasons.
