'I Got This Tatted On My Body' - Maxx Crosby Calls People Clowns For Saying There's A 'Disconnect' Between Him And Antonio Pierce, Doesn't Want To Be Traded

Last week we had Michael Lombardi suggest some sort of disconnect between the Raiders and Maxx Crosby because Crosby wasn't on the sidelines for the game he missed due to injury. It was shut down pretty quick by basically everyone involved

[Source] - Crosby said he and head coach Antonio Pierce wanted him on the sideline, but the team's trainers and medical staff wanted him to stay off his feet. The Raiders defeated the Browns 20-16.

He was obviously back yesterday even though it didn't matter. The Raiders are, uh, bad to say the least. Minshew is throwing pick-6s and getting benched, Davante Adams is on his way out. They are a mess. But, don't you dare say Maxx Crosby wants out of Vegas: 

Pretty straight forward and to the point here. Plus you can't trade a guy when he has the logo tattooed on him, that's rule number 1 in the trade world. Flawless argument from Maxx who knows he can use that to his advantage. This is exactly how people in Crosby's situation should talk. We live in a world where there are reports and guys talking all the time about trades and disconnects and anything like that. If that's not true, the player has every right to say whatever they want about the report. 

This is where I truly believe Crosby. Why would he say this after the Raiders got their ass kicked? It's the perfect time to deflect and not be afraid to say you want out, especially with the Adams situation going on. But I honestly think Crosby wants to be a Raider. That's something that seems important to him and the team that took a chance on him. Also calling someone a clown always plays. Don't care what sport it is, if you disagree with someone and publicly call them a clown it plays.
