Are you people crazy? Coles and Moss on the field? That wouldn't be good? Gimme that shit youre smoking!

Randy Moss is extremely immature and pampered. The Vikings can't go anywhere as a team because to keep Moss in line they have set up a whole set of special rules for him and another set of rules for everyone else. With that sort of division, there is no way in the world the Vikings could be expected to play far into the postseason in this league. When you deal with Moss types, those are the kind of things that can happen. Or in Tampa, you have an intolerant approach toward players perceived as divisive and you get the same disruptive results.
We want a winning team that we can respect, a team based on cooperation and unity. We are building that here, like they have in New England apparently - and that precludes bringing in people just due to their talent, in my view.
If you feel like Philly did with Owens that a player might be overrated as a troublemaker and can be brought under control, maybe you roll the dice and hope that you get rewarded for the risk. With Moss, he seems so outrageously self-centered that I don't think it is worth it. He would be such a drain and a distraction - far worse than whatever touchdowns he catches most likely.
