At no point have I ever sat down and thought about a career move from the perspective of “what would the dumbest character ever put to film do here”. And I would be pretty weird if y’all thought I made any league decisions at all based on what Forrest Gump would do. A FA move like this is 100% a decision made by the user, not the player, and that is simply a fact. The fact that not only will he not accept that line of thinking, apologize, or do anything other than double down on his initial article despite knowing he caused someone serious emotional distress isn’t an “in character” thing. It is a decision he made and one that was mean spirited. That said, his career isn’t over, he isn’t blackballed, and any issues sure as hell isn’t because he attacked Bex specifically. Had he attacked anyone like that, saw the pain it caused, and doubled down, I’d go after him just as hard. The problem is that he called a friend of mine “entitles, selfish, and mentally weak”. Justify it to yourself with “but it was the player’s decision” all you want. It wasn’t. It was the decision of a human person. And the article hurt people.
