No story in this last clip. It's not rocket science. He's a part of the juban used car salesman mafia. He never had such an easy job than when Mandy didn't even oversee him in any capacity. All that and you crash boat party's and do slip and slides on hot summer days... Shiiiit. Why would this jackaloon ever wanna leave Mandy's side.

There's no way in **** that dude would even make eye contact with me. Let alone SAY a word to me to my face. He's not built like that.

Dude is upset that he made an asinine post claiming that everything was on the DC and not Mario. Man goes off on a tangent for nothing. I honestly didn't even read his post because there is no objective, rational, and intelligent reply you can make in response to me outside of recognizing that he's wrong and shouldn't have typed it.

Not trying to argue brother. Just legit curious & trying to understand people's takes that I don't think are just blindly putting everything on Mario. So question is what do you think (simply with this DC conversation)is on Mario & not on DC?

Bain is lighter and 3 inches taller. At his height 290 would be on the small end. I would think he needs at least 15 pounds to be considered an athletic DT.

Please don’t build your hope on Bain athletics if he was all this it would have shown last year.
Bain isn’t right to have his game fall apart all last year and made no adjustments to his attitude ain’t good .
He’s a player that motor goes silent when he meets a formidable opponent.

He deteriorated all year long new DC has already seen this on film and will deal with Bain deterioration in his play no doubt.

Sounds like you know Ruben on a personal level. How did you know his attitude ain't good?

Simple management rules bredren. As someone who works in management im responsible for anything my employees do. Yes, I can fire them(or get them fired by HR). But I always have to sit down with my boss and explain **** that I did or didn't even do. That's just the nature of the beast.

As the head guy, I hired the person, I'm responsible for their development or lack thereof so I have to speak to it and have to own the outcome of their actions.

If i keep hiring people who are not doing their jobs correctly then I'll justifiably be terminated because my vetting process and my leadership skills are obviously lacking.

Like, I don't get all these excuses for Mario, man. He hires guys that dont get the job done and somehow it's not his fault? I don't know a world that works in.

It's as simple as: He hired the guy, if he sucks it's his fault for hiring him. He would surely get the praise if the guy is successful so let's keep it fair on both sides.

LOL, I remember dudes e-beefing on Ferman's board many man moons ago.

One poster said meet me at The Rat to have a quarrel over said e- beef.

Referenced poster not only went, but also waited with a pinwheel hat on his head, lol

Good times.

I hope these boards never change.

No I don’t but I also don’t stick my head in the sand , but on his mannerisms on the field glaring his play and field presence isn’t right.

I draw a lot of opposition in this reality we see but that’s ok most people see it but are in denial of his play.

You can’t be all world for a year then the following year completely fall apart to average at best play.

If his play didn’t bother anyone well then that’s fine , when his issues persisted he’ll declare NFL ready if he can’t perform in CFB at the level he did when he got here.

Or maybe, just maybe, he was battling an injury and also had to get used to being a possible focal point of an opponents gameplay? That's typically a reason for a sophomore slump on any level, teams getting tape on you and forcing you to make your weaknesses your strengths or force you to the bench.

It's a learning curve. I don't see it as indicative of his resolve and ethic.
