Edited to add: I don't know why it's considered okay to trash talk people. I mean, if you want to talk smack on the field while you're playing them, that's one thing. To just spew hate and discontent is something else and to call someone "trash" is doing just that. I like the guy as a player but as person, not so much.

And Jim Rome? Good grief. I think he'd live in Ramsey's jock if he could.

I wouldn't call it hate or discontent. He's just giving his opinion.

It isn't something I would do, and I can understand why it'd piss people off, but he's just being blunt.

Perhaps. I have an ax to grind with folks who talk trash or call people names. It comes from being bullied as a kid and having a sensitive nature in general. I just find it unnecessary and distasteful. I mean, it's one thing to jaw at each other on the field and quite another to just trash people in an interview or for a magazine article. 

To each his own.
