    Yes. Why? Because he disrespected the fanbase of the Titans yesterday. That's enough for me.

    What Vince did is inexcusable. He has to be disciplined in some way, at the least a multi-game suspension. The thing at this point is, I think he has forever lost the city of Nashville, and probably a significant portion of his teammates. After what he did, a lot of guys in that locker room would refuse to ever trust him again, no matter what. The only way he's a Titan in 2011 is if Bud Adams demands it.

    What I found interesting from the story is that he apparently wanted to start versus Miami but Fisher held him out. Now, how forcefully he asked for the start behind closed doors we don't know but now he is saying he wanted to start and Fisher held him out (which Fisher admitted after the game that he wanted to make sure there were no more setbacks with Vince). It is clear their relationship has not been good, probably for quite awhile now. I don't see how any player, especially as high profile as a QB, can play comfortably believing that their HC does not believe in them. Vince still should have been a professional and dealt with it. He could have even taken an "I'll show them" mentality. Instead he ran away.

    If I had to endure Jeff Fisher as a head coach, I would have snapped a long time ago. See Haynesworth. I feel sorry for all the players who give it their all knowing their efforts are being coached to yet another disappointing loss.

    Yeah I'm a Plummer fan too.


    Let me add, Vince also acted like a baby and has seriously hurt the Titans 2010 postseason chances. We have five divisional games left, and Vince has to act a fool.

    Vince should have held his tongue, and emotions, til after the season.

    So fans in the stands cursing him, calling him expletives etc are not disrespecting him? But that's ok because they are fans?

    The whole booing thing amazes me.
    People acknowledge that VY's mental toughness is apparently fragile.
    Most people also acknowledge VY is the best QB on the team and our best chance to win. So when he messes up what should we do? Let's boo him, and hurt his confidence (And our chances to win) even more!! Yeah, that's logical!

    Note that I'm not attacking the "right to boo" or whatever. But when you know you're dealing with a guy that doesn't handle it well and yet is your best chance to win, what sense is it?

    Note that I'm not addressing you directly. Moreso just putting this though out there.

    Ohhh geez !!!

    NFL fans have a short memory. If VY takes the Titans to a AFC championship nobody will care. In fact he could do much worse and still be accepted.

    AKA - Michael Vick, Ray Lewis, Ben Roethlisberger

    Bottomline is Vince is emotionally immature...and Fisher never wanted the best for him.

    As for dissing the fans, I've been waiting for about 3 years for Vince to realize most of the fans are stupid and he shouldn't care what they think anyway...he finally makes progress in this area and he gets take out again,

    Now we get to go to the Super Bowl this year with Rusty Smith and Vince gets to go on IR or go to another team.

    Another thing Id like to add is look at this latest post by Kuharsky:

    Now, this guy was in Boston when the incident happened, hes got second hand info yet a first hand opinion. "hes good at telling us" as if we are all together on the Hate VY wagon. This is what I dont like. Its like whatever happened, happened, and we are going to get the anti VY edition from this guy. This is part of the problem. This is not good reporting, its basically almost slander, yet its "mainstream media" and unfortunatley this guy is the "jury" that will decide VY's fate.

    Pittsburgh turned on Roethlisberger too, but they think he's alright now... Winning does that.
