CoLOLardo.
That’s what they’re starting to call us. How the hell did this happen man? How did we become even more of a joke in this league? This isn’t quite what I signed up for, you know? When I was drafted first overall by the Yeti in the S5 Draft, I couldn’t have been happier. There’s a certain prestige that comes with that title, you know? First overall pick in the draft. Even now, it still gives me shivers. I knew ahead of the draft that Colorado was taking me. The GMs, Meme and Sapp, sold me on how Colorado was on the upswing. They said that it’d be a bit rough in Year 1, that we’d only win 2 games. I took that as a challenge, saying we’d win 4. Yeah, we only won two games, but man we were really close in quite a few others. A bounce here and a bounce there and we’d have made that 4 wins happen. Sadly, we lost Brice Boggs to retirement, but all was not lost! We had a pretty good draft and everyone in that locker room has been busting their asses to get better every single day. S6 was going to be a good year for the Yeti. We signed a stud Linebacker in AC Hackett to give us one hell of a linebacking corps. Nick Pierno took a step further in his development, vowing to use his arm more than his legs. Future WR of the year Dwayne Aaron came on board, and we literally STOLE another first round pick from San Jose next season. Things were looking SO GOOD. . .
…until they came crashing down.
We suck. Pierno runs just as much as he ever has, and even though he’s a good guy, mixing in these rushing fumbles to go along with his patented red zone interception has just been awful. Sure, he uses his receives okay, but I’m easily his most talented pass catcher out there and the dude just doesn’t see me. Yeah, I FINALLY SCORED A TOUCHDOWN. It took 20 games, but my 5 for 59 and 1 TD game is a career high. I have this sickening feeling that with a real quarterback, I’d be torching this league and people would start saying “DiMiro who?”. But alas, we keep running this tired spread offense with a quarterback who really can’t run it. If he just sat back and worked solely on his passing, we’d be in a better place. And I feel bad saying that shit because Nick man, he’s been working hard. He has. He’s been dynamite in the locker room as a leader and he’s been putting in more work than ever. But its like in games, he just defaults back to his roots. He needs to be like, reprogrammed, I don’t know. We had a killer draft in the secondary. Storm Woods and Bobby Ruckus were supposed to come in and solidify what Andre Bly Jr. has been building back there. But once they got paid, it seems like they got a bit lazy. They’re behind on training and they’re getting left behind in the league. Our D-line is nice, our linebackers are tremendous, but man that secondary can get TORCHED. Even Pierno could throw on them, its that bad. We need more from them. Teams have already seemed to have learned how to beat us deep pretty easily. And then there’s the GM bullshit. Our general manager walked into the locker room recently and told us that the franchise is about 6th on his “List of Important Things to Do”. HOW IS THAT OKAY? The dude should just step down. A winning atmosphere starts at the top. Our Co-Gm is a stud, and he should be allowed to run this team as he sees fit, and hire a Co-GM that will bust his ass. Again, it STARTS. AT. THE. TOP.
We deserve better. BOSS TWEED DESERVES BETTER. Ive busted my ass daily for this team. I offered to play wide receiver. I’ve offered to play fucking quarterback. I’ve offered to have the team trade me and get some value because at this rate we’re fucking regressing and since the offense doesn’t use its mother fucking stud tight end at all, whats the point in having one? “Yeah dude, I own a Ferarri”. BUT YOU KEEP IT IN THE GARAGE YEAR ROUND. Keyshawn Johnson once made headlines demanding the ball. I should do the same at this point, I don’t know. The players put in the work, so I’m not even really calling them out. Maybe we need a new coach. We need SOMETHING to change though. We need a fucking spark. People need to put in even more work, and we can see where we end up.
This team made me a lot of promises when I was drafted. In turn, I promised them I’d stick it out and we’d win together. And I still want that. But since they’re not following through on their promises, should I still have to follow through on mine?
I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately. Do I really want to stick around here if all we’re going to get is ineptitude? I want to win, and I want to win badly. There’s no shame in that. I’m starting to feel like unless some major things happen soon, I’ll just be wasting away here. My father taught me and instilled in me some bad ass loyalty, and I’m really trying to keep it going. I feel bad even giving this speech, but something needs to happen, and it has to be more than just “I agree.”. We need actions, something. Its like the late, great Owen Hart said “Enough is enough and its time for a change!”. Like, we beat the Legion/Second Line twice last season, and now they’re SMOKING us 23-7. What the hell? I’m just frustrated man. I’m not *really* calling out my friends here either. I know they’re trying. But I needed to vent a bit. This is getting ridiculous. (1012)
