A report on a player 8 years too late if you ask me, but good to see he is getting his props.

I don't wish him injury, but I do wish him a terrible season. The worst of his career.

Well , I guess that makes it absolute , no need for the other 31 teams to waste their time and energy . The 40 Whiners are a lock to win the SuperBowl .

It happens... But man, it makes being a fan so tough when the guy who played such a key role in beating your team in the Super Bowl, is traded to your team immediately after...

Anquan Boldin. A man who had his face broken to the extent that he had to have pins inserted to put it together and he refused pain killers. You can't help to admire and respect that.

Dude eclipsed 11,000 yards today and did so while having a good first half against Richard Sherman. Congrats Q!

Not sure why all the dislike for Boldin. It worked out great for him, better than it has for Fitz thus far. I respect a dude who is willing to leave on principle while the team is at the top (for us, that was as good as it gets), rather than waiting for us to suck and then bailing.

Lastly, does anyone really believe Graves/Whis over Boldin's version of events? Really?

Don't you think that is a little harsh. After all, Judas didn't have to deal with Rod Graves.

Judas walks out of the stadium while his teammates are still celebrating winning the NFC.

Anquan is a notch below Simeon Rice to me.

I wouldn't put him below Rice but not far above. Walking out on your teammates at that point besides the whining about not getting the ball doesn't really sit well. Shows he really wasn't a team player.

But I admire him for his fortitude. Fearless.
