corrupt3d Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 http://thomas11.com/blog.html Didn't see this posted anywhere. He's had two posts so far and he seems to be saying all the right things. Want's to prove his doubters wrong...he and Campbell have a lot of doubters going into the season...both are building chemistry, etc, etc. We'll see how it pans out, but I'm excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Oh snap! I want the signed Authentic jersey he's selling that seems to be cheaper than if you bought an authentic with his name and number from NFL.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdskn4Lyf21 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 My DT jersey should be arriving from Korea any day now. Thanks for sharing about his blog, I'm bookmarking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely a premier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 One thing is certain. Devin Thomas needs a new calendar. His blog entry is labeled Monday, April 9, 2009. April 9 was yesterday... Thursday. Devin Thomas has all the physical tools. But what separates good and great NFL players from average and not-for-long NFL players is their willingness to work to improve. Some are late learning that lesson, and some never do learn that lesson. I hope Devin Thomas does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLongshot Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Actually, reference to his blog was posted on the Redskins blog today. http://blog.redskins.com/2009/04/10/friday-april-10-building-chemistry-through-videogames/ Course, the whole building chemistry with Campbell by setting him up with a video game system is rather disturbing in that that was Brandon Lloyd's thing. Hopefully, he turns out better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunClintonRun26 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I have consistently said this guy has the tools to be an absolute monster in the league . . . I really, really hope he gets it together and makes the most of his opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

281skins Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 damn he plays video games, football players should be robots and not do anything fun in their spare time. and what the hell is he doing spending time with jason campbell? shouldn't he be running routes 24/7? /sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harwich Hog Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 If I knew fans would interpret - or should I say misinterpret - everything I wrote, there's no way i'd write a blog if I were a football player. Also, criticising him for playing video games because Brandon Lloyd liked video games is a pretty spurious criticism wouldn't you say? It's the inverse equivalent of saying he's the next Larry Fitzgerald just because he wears No.11 (a comparison i've also heard somewhere on here). I couldn't care less whether he panders us with clichés all off-season - something he's getting good at. Bottom line is if he's playing video games - surely playing them with Jason Campbell is better than nothing. And surely him feeding us to death with how he's got a chip on his shoulder is better than the nonchalence you get from other pros who go on to waste their careers. Truth is - i'm very impressed. And to be honest I can't think of anything more he can be doing to improve. Can't wait till September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedevilhimself Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I always think this is interesting when the player reaches out a hand to the fans and the fans find some reason to pull the hand and arm off an beat them with it . I think one thing that is interesting is Thomas has always worked to his goals . He is not some knucklehead who sits back and lives on his physical talents . I admire that . He could have taken an easier route and he didn't . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not critisizing him so much as the comments open up old wounds of a guy who seemed to care more about being a good Halo player rather than a top-notch receiver. I'm not at all saying that Thomas will become Lloyd, tho that is always a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
