Premium Member Popular Post JeffS17 Posted August 11, 2023 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 AJ needs that old wise man advice: Never predict the end of the world. You're almost certainly going to be wrong, and if you're right, no one will be around to congratulate you. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Popular Post JeffS17 Posted August 11, 2023 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 On a serious note, pretty disappointing to read a lot of this stuff, and it will make me much less upset if he were to get traded. It's almost impossible for this to not affect locker room dynamics when a guy thinks Beyonce is the devil cus he gets a boner watching her perform. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not jumping the gun with being okay with trading him because of this. As long as it does not permeate the locker room and cause any issue, which by all accounts, it has not since there has been no mention of any of this during the season. He has been quoting scripture all year. He's 19 finding his own path, he'll have missteps along the way - he just has to learn from them whatever they are. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q45T Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 Well damn. There’s nothing wrong wit being religious but slim is clearly fanatical and is crashing out… reminds me of an ex-gf who I left for obvious reasons. Hope this doesn’t affect our already fragile locker room if we hold onto him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really anyone who presses their standards onto everyone around them. There are guys who push their political views, religious views, recreational drug views, etc. onto everyone else without regard for how others may think or feel about the situation. The only segment that tends to get called out will be the more religious extremist views. But it will create locker room issues if it is a deeply felt conviction that is thrown about regularly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Spud2nique Posted August 12, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 I don’t care if he’s super religious or an atheist. Just keep that in the background and in your private life. He’s 19, he’s gonna make mistakes and say stupid stuff, people 2.5 times his age do it all the time. He’s 19, and he just lost his nephew. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has only caught wind because of Beyonce. Dude's been tweeting like this forever. Wake me up when he starts telling people to not get vaccinated. Complete non-issue.

Well, yeah, 99% of his tweets are just quoting scripture... that's not interesting to anyone. Of course the one where he says going to a Beyonce concert is "promoting Satan" is going to garner attention. His tweets almost never pass judgement on other people like that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
