|

|
Quote: | A few hours after the Saints (4-5) pulled out a 31-27 victory over the Falcons (8-1) with a pair of late defensive stands, veteran New Orleans linebacker Scott Shanle displayed some bravado of his own, referring to his vanquished opponent as "our little brothers."
Shanle said the tension between the two teams began in pregame warm-ups, when several Falcons players began taunting ex-Atlanta linebacker Curtis Lofton, who joined the Saints as a free agent last March.
"They were talking [expletive] to our guy Curtis Lofton," Shanle told Y! Sports on Sunday night. "I couldn't even understand them. They were just walking all over our drills trying to mess with him. [Linebacker Jonathan] Vilma went and told their coach it was classless and they didn't even say anything. It set the tone for the day. It was classless and they got what they deserved." |

So a team that is responsible for partaking in one of footballs most classless actions is calling out another team for being classless? So a group of individuals insulted a player on your team and there response was to cry about it to the coach and then moan when nothing was done.
Good god. Grow up. Next time someone makes fun of me I will go tell there parents and then when they do nothing go and cry to the media about it. Man up, take responsibility, and just ignore them. Quit trying to take a little situation and make it into a big one. _________________ XBL GT: L JGOLD L |

Wait.. The defense thats known for tearing ACLs and causing concussions for a little extra cash is calling the least penalized most disciplined group of players in the NFL "classless?"

Name the players with ACL & concussion injuries?
You guys making an thread over nothing. It seems like every year we call each other classless. Trash-talk is just apart of the game. One person doesn't speak for the whole team. _________________ The Quote of the Month is: "Losing Creditability" |

C'mon, it's football. There's trash talking every week, game, and during plays. Get over it Shanle and if Vilma going over to our coaches is true then I think it's HILARIOUS that they ignored him. It's a man's sport and a rivalry game should both teams just sit nicely next to each other and hold hands? If you can't take the trash talking then you probably shouldn't be playing football. This is a minor incident.
P.s. Jgold. Couldn't agree with you more. _________________ NFL: Atlanta Falcons

There was [inappropriate/removed] talking going back and forth.. things like that come with sports and competition. It always has, and always will. _________________
