Super Bowl Media Week: A Time for Trash Talk

Randy Moss Stirred Up Some Super Bowl Media Week Drama with his claim as the Greatest Receiver of all Time.


Superbowl Media Week is a great time of year. I love how much trash talk comes out of both sides, regardless of whether the individuals doing the talking have any relevancy in the game itself. It's always bad when the kicker starts running his mouth but this week has been pretty interesting. Randy Moss came out and told the world he thinks hes the best receiver to ever play. Remarkable, considering that this is the same guy who most people will agree is incredibly talented but somewhat of a cancer in the locker room.  Even, when the dude is getting the ball he's still pissed off at his OC, his QB, and most likely himself. 


But this is extremely interesting because I highly doubt if it wasn't Superbowl media week that Moss would of said this. He knows what his numbers are and he knows Jerry Rice's as well. He doesn't compare statistically at all and honestly, if your the best, then you don't need to make that claim. Your play will justify it. But that's Media Week for you, people just can't get enough. I think this is more Moss realizing this is his last chance to truly shine, if he comes out and plays big people might actually give him that title. He definitely wouldn't have a hard time getting a job next year and his endorsements would increase. So this is more of financial strategy than anything. 

I will say this, the guy in his prime could flat out play and no one wanted to match up with him one on one. I hope he gets a ring this weekend, it will be one hell of a show if he scores. 

Lets all go back in time and watch this video, ill never forget it
