Flikken posted:Or the prospect that said he had Brady's intellect in Cam Newton's body. That is pretty douchey. You mean your new starting quarterback?

Flikken posted:Im pretty sure Cody Kessler doesn't think he has Cam Newtons body. Yeah, but I assumed when you responded you knew it was Kizer.  And the quote was definitely taken out of context.

Grittybeard posted:Weird that everyone says this. The direct quote wasn't "I have Cam's body and Brady's brain" so yeah, that's wrong. But he definitely said while talking about himself "I do have the ability to be the greatest quarterback to ever play. Imagine taking (Tom) Brady’s intellect and Brady’s preparation and putting it on a guy with Cam Newton’s body." His quote says "Imagine taking Brady's intellect and Brady's preperation and putting it in a guy with Cam Newton's body. Why can't I be the greatest? The only thing stopping me from it is me. That's what's driving me now." It was taken out of context because the last two sentences change the entire meaning of the quote. Without it, you get the impression that he thinks he already is those things. With them, you have a goal he is striving for. I think it's pretty clear what he meant in the original quote with the other two sentences, but it doesn't make as good a story. Flikken posted:I knew it was Kizer. I was making a joke at my teams expense. And I was trying to do a terrible job of playing off that! Clearly I succeeded!

Grittybeard posted:That was in the original article. I get what you are saying, but even with context, he's talking about his overall potential. Moreover, he has a point. How many guys are physically capable of doing what he does? Is it really arrogant if it's true? He's talking about maximizing the god given talent he has. He's not assuming he is the greatest ever. He's saying if he puts in the work, he could be the greatest ever. I mean, he probably is a tool, but not for that quote. I will give you he said it in the douchiest manner possible.
