SilverBullet Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 This Rendon situation is hilarious. He's the worst.

Good for you if you don't - but if I could afford it I'd quit yesterday. I don't give two shits about the company I work for but personal pride still means I bust ass and I've gotten a perfect review for nine years running and 11 of the 12 I've worked for them. That mindset can absolutely coexist alongside a great work ethic. Edited February 21 by Daddy Dix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't say that publicly as you pull in on the first day of work. 100% family comes first but this guy just told everyone he doesn't give a shit about his play. Rendon doesn't have a great work ethic, he's said crap like this before. He also said it's not a priority. Work should definitely be one of his priorities even if not the top one.

I have zero issues with anything he said. Owners don't really give a shit about the players either so it's every man for himself. He's also not a rookie so it's not really his first day of work when he's all pie-eyed and dreaming big. He's been playing in the league for a LONG time.

Das Texan Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I hope as a result the Angels treat him like a fucking employee then and make him actually fulfill his media obligations et al (because I believe thats part of his contract), because he has been a fucking prick to all of the media since he became an Angel, avoiding the media at all costs and when talking to them coming off as a prick with answers that dont actually answer anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been playing in the league for a LONG time. And he's been a massive disappointment and a joke since signing with the Angels. The last thing that guy should be saying publicly is that this isn't his priority because he's done zero to make the Angels fans believe he even wants to help them win. Even if it's fake media talk he's the number one guy who should be out there saying "I'm ready to give it 110% this season!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
