Wallace talks with the media; wants to focus on the future not the past

[connecticutsteel]

Let me first say as a die hard life long steelers fan i went back and forth between for Wallace and against Wallace and after everything i am a Mike Wallace fan and he deserves to get paid as much as the Steelers will pay him and he also earned the right to explore free agency next season.Football is not a conventional business so some one trying to maximize there income comes with the territory.So Steeldawgswag and all the other Waterboys (OR closet Raven Fans i can't tell) on here do me a favor and watch the newest episode of Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.Specifically the section about the retired Saints player Steve Gleason then tell me that all players hold out for bitches and Bentley's. Reading is good for your mind you should do some educate your self on the pros and cons of being an nfl player.Then formulate an opinion based on something other than shock value.The bottom line is Mike Wallace is smarter than you think he is and know that eventually he will get hurt and if the injury is to his knees or hips it will slow him down.So he bought himself some time look at what happened to David De Castro this year. The truth is he may never be the same.

I am new here but i have been lurking for a long time. I have alot of concerns with Mr Wallace. I pray I am wrong but I honestly wont be shocked when on the first play from scrimmage he "has a season ending injury". It seems to me the kind of game he would pull but lets hope he proves me wrong.

I also enjoy how several brand new posters pop up to support the idiotic opinions of these ass clowns at just the right time, then you never hear from them again.

wallace had the opportunity to deny this but was either too stupid to do it the proper way or purposely chose not to. his response was 'dont believe everything he read'. that is not testimony, thats advice. similar to 'dont take wooden nickels' or 'dont eat yellow snow'.

Yup, too stupid.
'I never said I wanted Fitzgerald type money' NOT 'Dont believe everything you read'.
Pretty simple for most to understand.

how's this comparison?
people in town tell you your wife is having an affair. you confront her and ask "Are you cheating on me". She responds, "dont believe everything you hear"................Does that response instill confidence in you?
