All I know is Rickie Fowler is gonna have another one of those tournaments that allows him to earn more endorsement money than prize money. - Der Kaiser

Nice
At Xtreme Wheels I’m assuming?
I’ve seen Rise Against a bunch of times
AFI & Anti-flag are the openers,
which I’m also pretty psyched about
Gonna be a great show - jdfitz77
I used to be all about Anti-Flag when I was 16. Don't think I could handle that noise anymore. Maybe some AFI. I can still do NOFX and Less Than Jake with a cheap ticket.

Please provide one example.
Because what I think you're really thinking about is a single interview where he said he lost his passion for the game "on occasion," and while that aint a great thing to admit, it happened once, and Jack himself got tempermental during interviews on several occasions in the same timeframe.
And all I'm really saying here is that ROR is not nearly the villain some people are making him out to be. He's gone, like Kane, Myers, and Armia. But he ain't a villain. - Der Kaiser
I don't hate RoR, if that's what you got from my comment. I think he's a really good player. But, my examples would stem from those inside the locker room who said, he was creating a riff between the players; those in his camp, and those in Jacks. It's also well known about his issues in Colorado, about him not being happy Landy was given the C. This reputation of him not being happy unless he's "the guy" seems to follow him around. Maybe those rumors are true, maybe some aren't. I think it's best for our club moving forward that he was moved.

Yeah, think it was Xtreme Wheels. - TheSabresTaco
I still go to pink & ska shows all the time
Usually do RiotFest every year in Chicago,
which is always an amazing lineup

What my comment means is that you and many other people in these boards that start from a simple innocuous statement "I lost my passion" and exaggerate that to "he thru (or even threw) fits" without any reliable information to back it up. Or, for that matter, "those inside the locker room who said he created a riff" without knowing whether that was even true, or if it was, what the root of the disagreement was.
Let's say there was a disagreeement. What it it's true that Jack ran a little too often with Kane and got a bit too far into the nightlife, and ROR didn't like that. Take it a step further and say his disapproval of Jack's choices caused a RIFT in the lockerroom. Does that make ROR a villain? Does that mean he "has to go?" Because that's the treatment he got in these boards.
And I'm not ready to make any of those conclusions. Especially when other players on this team behaved in nearly exactly the same way.
