[/quote=uffda udfa;376573] People hate him [McSpinn] for being how he is (objective) but have no problem
with cheerleaders like Wilde.
Players hate him because he is a LIAR!
January 25, 2016 McGinn was venting after GB loss in AZ and attacked Ted by saying this:
"All Thompson need do is be a little more open-minded [HIS ONLY EXAMPLE WAS].
Take Mason Foster, 26 and a starting inside linebacker for Tampa Bay from 2011-'14. He was cut by the Bears on Sept. 5 and was on the street until Redskins GM Scot McCloughan signed him Sept. 29 for minimum salary.
Foster, who beat out a pair of veterans to start in Washington, is better than Palmer, Joe Thomas and probably Ryan, at least now."
Here's the truth:
After 4 years with Bucs, they didn't want him even for the minimum. W/ 4 years of his play on tape, as an UFA there were no takers. So, he took a min deal with Bears before 2015 camp, who were DESPERATE for ILBs; but he got cut before season started. No one wanted him for a month. Then Wash had several ILBs with injury.
At the onset of season at ILB Washington had 3 A LOT better than Foster [Compton, Riley, Robinson] and the 4th ILB was rookie developmental guy Spaight. Then injuries hit, Foster was signed, he sat on bench for several weeks and when more injuries hit he got a shot.
After Fosters' game changing year as reported by McSpinn all he got after 2015 as an UFA was 2 years 2.5M/350K Guaranteed.
Foster was not better than Ryan or Thomas and he wasn't as good on STs as Palmer. His signing would have not improved the D, wasted 700K, and slowed the development of Thomas and Ryan.
And this is all liar-McSpinn has got to rip Ted. And he's done the same thing with several players. UNLESS HE LIKES THEM, like Brandon Burks, then he lies and fawns over how he made 3 great block in pass protection.
McGinn is the polar opposite of objectivity.
