Kinda funny how trouble seems to follow some players around no matter where they go!!! Never a shortage of people who have to say again… this is being blown out of proportion!!! Great player, not worth the cancer- Saskatchewan can happily keep him!!!

Two questions:
1. If it not a big deal, why is #1 so adamant to prove it’s not. If you’d rather focus on next game, do that without worrying about the media. That tells them you ARE galvanized as a team and not letting outside distractions get to you. Focussing on them, kinda proves them correct, no?
2. What’s as azz? LOL.

In reply to Glenn Sinclair. The same class as his father. His father was one of the worst teammates on the Vikings. He got kicked out of Ohio State and was cut by the Eagles. According to Chris Klewie, Vikings punter, Carter was a bully who was hated by his team mates but he was a fav of Dennis Green who let him get away with it. And don't you remember his "Fall Guy" speech from a few years ago at the NFL rookie symposium where he encouraged players to get themselves a weak sychophant willing to take the blame and even go to jail for you when you're running around causing trouble. Yeah, Chris Carter was full of class.

why don’t all you unpaid coaches get of this, you guys have been like that for years start up so much crap and you wouldn’t know the truth if it hit you in the azz. Carter has done all that is asked from him this year and its not over, Grant the same thing we finally get some stars of the league here and you coaches try to rip him a new azz. How come your not after the coach that supposedly egged him on, why because its crap. Let them play ball and all you unpaid coaches stop doing what you probably do at home is bitch at everything good bless your wives and kids

I wonder what the practice roster player did to provoke Carter? Love how some people are just bashing Carter as immature, but find out what provoked Carter and see how you’d react.

Jovon joins the crowd who is besties with Carter when they’re on the same teams. Big surprise. So believe Johnson until Jones has his say. Jones, who took a shot at BLM when he exposed his illegal roster, then claimed he didn’t know the rules after he was fined, Jones who had to publicly apologize after Reynolds had a chat with him when the fines kept coming, Jones who threatened to sue 3DNation when it came to light he had tampered with Manziel & on & on. Don’t have to wait for Jones statement. It’s all a big misunderstanding, right Chris. Glad that’s cleared up.

In reply to Conan the Librarian.

He (Jovon) claims that the comment could mean anything. Except that when an athlete says it, it usually means he’s been released. If Carter meant that he just finished the latest season of Game Of Thrones, he should probably a little more clear about that, but then, Carter can do no wrong.

I like Jovon and I get that he wants to stand up for his teammate. If he thought the “fight” was just a standard post-practice skirmish I can respect his opinion on that but suggesting some other meaning to that tweet is just silly. Carter thought he was done for and if he didn’t want people to come to that conclusion, then he should have stayed off Twitter or provided more detail.

Glenn Sinclair, truth is Carter’s dad is not all that classy, so the apple has not fallen far from the tree.

I am not a Rider fan but I still appreciate Carter’s talent. He will grow up one day and may have done some of that this season.
