Belichick apparently holds to the notion that poison (amply displayed in public interviews and elsewhere) in the locker room equates to a death knell for his team on the field..

From what Belichick said yesterday, Randy was a model player and a joy to coach. Not one player has come out and disparaged Moss.

Also, you realize that they told Moss at the beginning of the season that they will not renegotiate anyone's contract during the regular season, right?

Well, then they renegotiated Brady's contract. I think I would be a bit upset if my boss told me...

"OV", I am not giving anyone a raise this year"

Then two days later I read in the papers and hear on the radio that my co-worker just got a raise.

Well, I think it would be time for me to find a new place to work, after all, if I cannot trust my employer to keep their word, what good is the company. I don't care if you make minimum wage or 30 million, if you cannot trust the word of your boss because he out and out lied to you, then why would you want to work in that environment?

Yes, I might even vocalize my displeasure at the idea that I was told no raises for ANYONE, then another employee was given a raise.

Honor and respect go both way's and telling a lie about raises, is just the same as spreading poison in the locker room. How can anyone trust the word of the Patriot Mgt now. Will they not all be a bit skeptical about the managements word when they tell them the same thing they told Moss in the future?

Are you telling me that you would not be a bit peeved yourself? Remember, the amount of money does not matter, it is the principle of the matter that counts. They still expect Moss to go out and take a chance at ending his career for no extra cash when Moss is in a contract year. Brady was not in a contract year, but they treated him different.

You need to put yourself in his shoes and tell me what you would have done, and again, remember that not one player has even hinted that Moss was poison, NOT ONE!
