I was an LT fan until the Championship game, will be interesting to see Turner in a starting roll now.
I was just wondering, why were you an LT fan until the championship game?
2000+ yards a year, could rush for TD's, catch the ball for TD's and throw for TD's
reminded me abit of Barry when he was playing
I think rasczak was wondering the reason why you're no longer an LT fan since the AFC championship game.
That's what I'm trying to figure out. Are you one of the few that are basing it on the 30 seconds of footage of him sitting on the bench after his knee was so unstable that he couldn't cut or accelerate? :roll:
or him sitting on the bench instead of cheering on the offense, giving words of encouragement, or any support at all.
All he did was sit on the bench with his visor on and sulk in the biggest game of his life.
The MRI said it was nothing serious

Even if he could not play in the game, he could have supported his team
Exactly, when your team MVP and best player is just sitting on bench having as much impact on the game as anyone here on ATOT did, you have to feel a little cheated from it. He should've been more of a leader--otherwise he could've just sat in the locker room. People criticize athletes like Dirk and others for not being vocal enough, but LT seems to get a free pass at it because of the numbers he puts up and being a "class act".
I don't think anyone is going to criticize him for not playing in the game, as only he knows how his knee feels and how it would've affected his performance--and trying to brave through it could've hurt his team immensely, but at the very least take off your damn helmet , don't drape yourself with the blanket on the sideline, and try to at least give your teammates a little bit of encouragement or even just a word or two of advice.
You're considered the best player in the game, don't act like you're a 4th string kicker.
