Thread: Jay Cutler: Tough As Hell

I'm hoping TMZ has cameras fixed on him next year when he's walking around Super Bowl press conference week!


Positivity - it's catching on!! YEAH!

Cutler shouldn't have to be an extrovert, all he is required to do is go out and perform on the field if he doesn't then criticize him for that not because "he's slouching his shoulders as he comes off the field" or "he looks like he's pouting".

but welcome to the New NFL the NFL for the meatballs, part XFL part Arena football and soon part WWE. I can't wait till players Drafted are taken higher because they send "cool" vignettes to NFL teams ala pro wrestling when a new "rassler" is signed.

I think you are completely overstating what is being suggested…nobody is saying Jay should or needs to be the NFL version of Hulk Hogan…but in the real world, attitude and body language does matter…trying getting a date or job while “slouching” or “pouting” or generally come across as indifferent to everything around you – fair or not, I doubt you will get very far…I think we’re just saying is Jay should be conscious of that fact as well…it just might make his life and career a little easier…

Just think, before the year, he said "I don't believe i've accomplished enough to do any advertising", and with the way the season ended, not that losing in the NFCC would've likely mattered, there's no way in HELL he's gonna be marketable, or even want to put himself out there.

I know this is way off topic, but it reminds me of a particularly moving part of Walter Payton's biography, in which he was inundated with fans asking for autographs and in the process, he noticed an older woman walking away crying. He told one of his friends (don't remember the name) to track her down. After he dealt with the crowd, he asked what was the matter, and she replied that her grandsons were big fans of his and she felt horrible for not being able to get them an autograph from him. Needless to say, he signed whatever it was she had, and went on his way. I guess, in this way, one can draw a comparison between the two; most of the stories in Walter Payton's book were from friends or others who brought to light his many good deeds, just like how Cutler is doing most of his good work behind the scenes. It says more about your character to not have to have the attention; But the difference between them is that Cutler "apeears to be a ****" and we live in a media era where it's apparently important to be upfront with everything..

I read a GREAT quote a long time ago......."INTEGRITY" is based on what a man (or woman) does....when NOBODY'S looking.

I get the feeling that if I had Jay's money ..... “slouching” or “pouting” wouldn't keep me from getting a date. LOL!!!!

..... and it certainly isn't keeping him from one either:



I can completely understand why he doesn't give a rats ass "what" you or I think ..... LMAO! :-)





However, Kidding aside........I do understand what you're getting at, regarding Cutler. :-)

But, Morrisey can still go take a 100 foot walk off a 99 foot pier.

If that's true, then what’s the problem? Why is everyone so worked up that Jay is being picked on? If he doesn’t care, why do we?
