Sports are the ultimate meritocracy. GMs and coaches get fired based on wins and losses.

People get second, third and fourth chances all the time - if the talent to wi games is there. there are high and low profile examples every single year.

What is happening is that GMs are saying he can’t win me more games than last year and he isn’t worth the headache. It’s simple. If he could carry a franchise like manning did and Brady does - he would have a home. — just like michael Vick did after jail.

“People get second, third and fourth chances all the time - if the talent to wi games is there. there are high and low profile examples every single year.”

Example 1A from last year: Matt Bush the relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers He served time in prison for (I think) manslaughter.

Bob Kraft and Bill Belichick are famously Trump supporters, but if Krappernook were the second coming of Tom Brady, they'd sign him tomorrow. One thing Belichick does not tolerate it's players who disrupt the business of winning.
