Message: [QUOTE="theshed, post: 3103250, member: 2290"] I think most people get what Boyd was saying, and even agrees to an extent. However it showed a great lack of awareness given the context surrounding Boyd when he made the comment. The club was struggling and he was quick becoming the most unwanted player, let alone captain, in broncos history due to what many saw as a lack of effort or care. He hadn’t earned the right to say it’s only a game. No one would’ve bat an eyelid if Nathan Hindmarsh, or Thurston had come out and said the exact same thing because no one could ever question their effort or attitude as captains. When a guy completely dogging defensive efforts, doing the bare minimum in attack, turning his back on bombs, and being completely unable to admit any flaws in his performances says “it’s just a game”, of course people are going to get the shits. It’s like if a guy who busts his ass at work and always gets the job done goes “i need to take some time off to spend with my family, after all it’s just a job” while another guy who isn’t hitting his targets, is rocking up late, going home early and when everyone is getting sick of his seemingly shit attitude at work he goes “guys, it’s just a job”. The context matters. [/QUOTE]
