Weddle (aka "Threaddle")

[Topcat]

Moved the Weddle stuff from the news tread. One way or another this saga ends on Sunday.

How about calling this thread, the "Threaddle" in honor of past threads

Must be a CMB thing.

Who cares about Weddle. Win a ring, don't win a ring. I don't care. He isn't a Charger.

Best of luck to weddle. I hope he gets his ring today

I hope he gets pounded into the carpet. Dislike will be eternal, he burned my bridge. To each his own, not like I’ll think about it a lot.

Speaking for myself only, my distaste for Weddle (or any player for that matter) hasn't much to do with their disputes with the front office, but mostly how they behave and conduct themselves as people.
Weddle is a special type of whiner that loves to parade around as some kind of leader then throw his teammates under the bus to the media (thinking of the time he suggested his teammates weren't following him to the gym).
dude never looks in the mirror when things go wrong
and no wonder he didn't inspire many younger guys to follow.

his vindictiveness now years later by continuing to talk about the Chargers is a testimony to his shit character and inability to take the higher road.
if others have a more positive narrative, cool, have fun.

But I'll always remember him as a pansy, primadonna poser of a leader who couldn't lead a horse to hay and blamed everyone for it.
and I'll choose to honor that memory of him by making this my last post about him ever.

I don't remember it this way at all. The mere suggestion that teammates aren't putting in the effort to be great (i.e., challenging them) is throwing them under the bus?
Then LT threw team mates under the bus (the tense locker room bit); and Rivers threw team mates under the bus in the heat of the moment.
What this seems to imply is that the vet Weddle was offering his experience in helping to teach younger players the ropes in terms of preparation, but those players had better things to do. This gives me another hint at the loser culture that developed in San Diego after Marty was bounced.. Baltimore didn't seem to be concerned about
Weddle's conduct: why was that? Well, Baltimore has a winning culture and Weddle fit right in. The Rams are also a winning culture, and their DC reached out
to this malignant pustule so that his selfishness could ruin their season, right? Some blab about wanting a winning culture, but then fall back into old habits.

Remember, the Chargers are a losing culture and bounce those who try to reverse the course.

And his 'vindictiveness' is way overblown: someone puts a microphone in his face and asks him a question and he talks about motivation.
Every player is motivated by rejection of one kind or the other.

He's a whiney little bitch and it would give me great pleasure to see him give up the winning score.

He has ball skills. No football skills...but ball skills.

Joe Mixon looking to do a Shonn Greene on Weddle. Iykyk

It is interesting that Weddle in 4 short weeks that he is wearing the green dot and has made Tayler Rapp a bench warmer.
Rapp has had a pretty dern decent 3 year career so not sure why they seeked out Weddle to replace him unless he is hurt and I don't know it.

He was hurt when they called up Weddle but now he’s healthy and Weddle took his job. Pretty remarkable actually for a guy who didn’t play football for 2 years
