Default Re: Beat: Am a freak and a very weird dude.

Lederer must feel embarrassed, and he probably shouldn't have called Jimmy a "freak," but just to take his side for a minute...

Howard represents FTP and is obviously counted on to make good decisions for the pros who join the team. Fact is, Jimmy, as good a player as he is, does come across a little weird on TV. He IS very young, he HAS made some fairly negative statements about other pros, and it's *probably* true that his type of image is not the image FTP wants to promote. So he was just making a fairly reasonable business decision, even though the way he made it was impersonal and insulting.

But the point is, he wasn't saying it to Jimmy and wasn't trying to harm Jimmy. I blame the FT emailer for outing Howard and showing Jimmy an email Jimmy had no business seeing. Believe me, I've said tons of things about people behind their backs that I only said because I knew it wouldn't get back to them. We all have. Doesn't mean we're all scumbags.

The villain here is FTP, with Howard only being a minor accessory.

This is the nice way of saying

" The guy's a freak and a very weird dude. He is also quite young. I think we should stay away."





You should have went a different direction with your email.

Hi I am morbidly obese. My 5x Full Tilt jersey is guaranteed to be seen on TV from anywhere in the room. You get more bang for your buck by me wearing a tarp disguised as a jersey. People will have no choice but look at your logo as I waddle past them.
