Quote:^ You know that coaches/managers/owners/players in every sport say things like that, and then turn around a short time later and do the very thing they said they wouldn't do. It happens all the time.


Maybe they'll try to trade Joe Thomas, maybe they won't. Even if they do, they'll want too much anyway.


**side note - I feel bad for Thomas. He's been a very solid player for a long time, stuck on a team that has had NO CHANCE of any success his entire career.

Normally, I like when good players stay with one team most of their careers (on the team that drafted them). In Thomas' case though, he could've had much brighter career elsewhere. He still got recognized as a good player, but he never got any big time recognition, high publicity, playoff bonuses,, etc.


His prime was completely wasted in that dumpster fire Cleveland.


He might've been a HOF candidate if he played somewhere like Denver, Dallas, Green Bay, etc...


What a waste.
