If we can post every failure of Toney's and he was barely here, I can only imagine what we're going to see every time Barkley comes up short.
Quote from: MightyGiants on May 21, 2024, 02:26:03 PMI am in the don't care camp, but I think you're correct. I think their are two aspects to this. There is Barkley the person and Barkley the asset. As a person, his success or failure doesn't phase me because he is no longer on the team (for some reason, I never really warmed up to the guy, even though he carried himself well). There is also Barkley the asset and his success and failure reflects on Joe Schoen and the decisions he made. So I could see that aspect being discussed.He was a good Giant and I bear no ill-will towards him. If he succeeds elsewhere, even with a rival, I'm happy for him.
