Has Warner just become bored with winning? Believe it or not I've heard that shit bantered about quite a bit on sportstalk. Sometimes I think people don't have a clue about how hard the NFL really is.

They think it's like the NBA where the players have a thousand games to prove themselves and can turn the charm on and off at will. The NFL is as close to modern gladiator games as we're likely to come in a mass market.

Anyone that says Warner has become bored with winning ought to be ignored from then on.. For goodness sake, the man injured his passing hand.. That tends to seriously fuck with a quarterback's game.. What they need to do is get all these speculative know-nothings off the air and replace them with people that have actually been in that kind of position, I.E. retired football players.. I mean, I'm playing college ball right now, and I'll tell you - that shit ain't none too easy.. Sure it's not as demanding as the pros, but goddamn.. People just don't understand the amount of heart it takes to play sports.. You could have all the God-given talent in the world, but without heart - you ain't shit.. Of course, you can't just be all heart, either.. You have to have some talent - even if it's just a smidge.. But yeah.. I really wish people would stop ragging on the Rams because they're not 8-0 and well on their way to the play-offs.. And I whole-heartedly agree with you about how the NFL and perhaps Div I NCAA football are as close to modern gladiator games as it gets in a mass market like this.. You do well, and they place you up on a pedestal for all to see and give you praises.. But the moment you fuck-up you're back to licking proverbial shit off the public's boots..
