@Jim – Actually Jim, when Joe referred to Josh Freeman as “bust-in-waiting,” Joe was not muttering in the background of a teleconference like Ledbetter, Joe was expressing opinion openly on an opinion-driven website — on these here pages. Those are two very different animals. Joe doesn’t pretend to be an objective, no-opinion-offered writer. Much like a columnist, Joe delivers opinion daily. At the time, it was Joe’s take that Freeman was an ill-advised draft pick and was a “bust-in-waiting.” Joe dropped the moniker long before Freeman ever took the practice field. You may find all that to be unprofessional, but it surely fell within acceptable standards of practice for an opinion writer. What Ledbetter did has no defense.
