"Quarterback Patrick Ramsey, who said he is a born-again Christian, said their shared evangelistic faith will give them "a chance of a deeper connection as we get to know each other." Ramsey is fighting Brunell for the starting job next season. Like Brunell, Ramsey said he has prayed with Gibbs over meals and talked about their mutual beliefs." |
Maybe that caused Gibbs to hang on to PR too long who knows. But there is no way I can be convinced otherwise about MB.
As for anything having to do with how Gibbs handled Riggo and anyone else from that era, thats ancient history and Gibbs just isnt the same person he was back then.
