Good claimed by Raiders

[YDFL Commish]

Good is the starting RG for the Raiders right now. Why can't he just leave it at that and be happy for the opportunity.

I'm sensing sour grapes because he wasn't given the starting job back and had to earn it.

There probably is some level of sour grapes. He apparently asked to be released so I imagine something pissed him off.

Your “earn” it angle is dumb

Good hadn't earned anything up to that point. He was the starter and had unfortunate circumstances, then got outplayed by Smith.

Unless you're a Pags disciple, you would understand this.

If he wanted his starting job back, then he had to earn it. If you play worse than the guy in front of you in practice, then you will not start.

Not a difficult concept to understand.

I am curious why you think that applies.

Blind spot?

I don’t know exactly what happened. Not sure why people here are pretending to.

I have zero reason not to take Good at his word.

It just doesn't make any sense Nobody would out of the blue tell someone whose brother had just died to just "suck it up" There had to be context to that that we don't have. I appreciate that the Colts are keeping their damn mouths shut about this. Good is in pain. He is deep in grief, if anyone has experienced deep grief you know that you don't think clearly. Misunderstandings happen easily. Since I wasn't there, I just give a mulligan and wish him the best for the rest of his life. It has to be a tough time for him.
