Randy Moss. He did so much as a Viking that I really hope retires with a Super Bowl ring. He was easily my favorite player growing up and I'd like to see him be able to ride off into the sunset as a champion.

I agree. I mean everyone in this forum thinks we're talking about this Randy Moss:
When really we are all talking about THIS Randy Moss:
I've never seen this Randy Moss quit on his team before, or complain that the catering tastes "like dog sh**!" or anything like that. Seriously, the bad rap this guy gets is INCREDIBLE!

| If we are excluding the team I went with Reed. But that is hard to balance because I really dislike Ray Lewis and his overblown motivational tactics |

| I hate to say this as a Bengals fan but I would like to see Ed Reed get a ring. I have a ton of respect for him and love watching him play. Also, like other Browns and Steeler fans have already mentioned in here, hopefully he wins and retires with Ray. |

The only time he literally "quit" on his team was the Redskin game.
Moss is a sore loser, and that's really all there is to it. Some people don't like that, some people (like me) couldn't care less because the guys a beast and never hurt any of the teams he played on. |

If you have to use "literally" to make it look better, it's not looking better.

Yes it is because he literally walked off the field one time a long time ago... when the vikings had a very, very, very little chance of winning.
I know you'll probably try to spin it as "he still quit" but to be honest It doesn't bother me as much as it does to others. |

How often did he "figuratively" quit?

Not sure, you tell me. How often did he burn a db for a score? ... well he has 78 40+ receptions, and 226 20+ receptions. Any stats on how many times he "figuratively quit"? |

I'd say a good portion of several seasons. He either quit or he magically started to suck, and either way it doesn't reflect well on him.

I'd say it defined his tenure with two teams, three if we're counting second stints with the same one.
And if he didn't "quit", at the very least he was such a cancer that teams felt obligated to get rid of him, so that doesn't make him any better.

| Right because you know the GMs of all those teams and those were the only reasons they got rid of him. |
