Hard for me to be thankful for a guy who took up a lot of our cap space in the past two years with average results, and wanted to be paid like a QB who could carry the team on his back. Good effing riddance from me.

And yes yes, I know the team had some fault too, so no need to re-hash this.

Kinda how I feel, like I said I won't be rooting for him/team that he's on. It's like when Champ left (My favorite player at the time), I could care less what he did in Denver.

I am more in this line. For all his positives, he brought just as much drama to the offseasons and made the team all about him. For those who say the Skins eff'ed it up, I say Cousins held his grudge far past what most teams would put up with. As I understand it, the coach, the assistant coaches, at one point the General Manager, were all in his corner and put their necks on the line to get him his shot. And in the end, he basically punked Gruden.

Personally, I expect him to crash and burn, and I feel sorry for Vikings fans if he ends up there. They are a fan base that I could get behind to win a superbowl, if they get back to that point, but they won't. Not with Cousins.

(IF they do, I will be happy for them).

Finally,

Setting team records doesn't mean anything when you basically are trying to run away from the team who is putting it all together for you.

Cousins has had nothing but Offensive gurus running his offenses, he clearly is a good qb, but what makes my team heroes:
Art Monk
Darrell Green
Riggo
Theisman
Chris Samuels
London Fletcher
Clinton Portis
Santana Moss
Trent Williams
and others
Is that they were/are Skins first, football players second. Cousins was never EVER that.

I wish Kirk nothing but the best of luck. I'll definitely keep an eye on the rest of his career.

Now, on to Alex Smith.

I liked Cousins but can identify with CRed's view. I like guys who are committed.

I also think Gruden's scheme, with McVay being here, and the quality of the surrounding cast makes Cousins look better than he really is. I think deep down Cousins knows it. He will look to land in a situation with as good a surrounding cast as possible, which is why Minnesota is probably the leader in the clubhouse. Getting to play with Diggs, Theilen and Rudolph plus a good defense is exactly what Cousins wants.

Thank you for needing to be wanted like a high school chick, winning us 0 playoff games, playing like shit in the clutch constantly, and using us as a springboard to get way overpaid. You played the system like a fiddle, that's the only thing I'll congratulate you on.

Can't wait to see Alex sling that ball around for us.

Oh, and go Packers!!!!

Of course, there's also the matter of Bruce Allen calling Cousins "Curt" for the entire time Kirk was here. If my employer did that to me, it would tend to make me feel disrespected.

Yeah, Allen is definitely a dickfuck, and that's one of the number one examples.

I think he did that once, and basically after KC said he wasn't going to negotiate.

no one defends the FO on this, but KC had every opportunity to be the qb for the Skins Fans and Skins team and he didn't step up to it.

Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish.

I prefer the term slapdick.
