I worked at Fry's Electronics back in the 80s and Jerry used to send his "driver" in to buy stuff for him while he sat in a running car in the parking lot :)

He was a total primadonna. But he got a chance to grow up and grow out of it. And more imporantly his teammates NEVER had a problem with Jerry (other than complaining he worked to hard and made them look bad, but that didn't last), just like BA's teammates talk him up and nothing negative ever seems to come from the other players.

Then there are players like Charles Haley. He was literally crazy. He regularly whipped his dick out and supposedly touched teammates with it. I remember it being reported that he regularly masturbated to completion in meetings. He physically attacked teammates several times. He supposedly peed in a teammates car at least once so they learned to always keep their windows up. He supposedly threw poop at a coach. Most of his teammates just tried to avoid him, but Jerry Rice supposedly fought back and that directly to Haley being sent cheap to the Cowboys.

If you want to talk about players you want to move on from don't go after the ones who their teammates want to stay, go after the ones their teammates can't wait for them to be gone.

Exactly! The team isn't gonna move him because some fans are emotional entitled babies.

Obviously.....but it was considered this off season because he is...... an emotional entitled baby.

Oh please, Jerry was a diva all day. He just didn't have instagram to talk about it. Fans get all emotional over TO, basically running him out of town because they were butt hurt. Vernon Davis was a diva all the same.

Not every single player has to "shut up and dribble" not every fan needs to comment negative s**t on everything a player posts because they didn't like it or are still butt hurt because he used whatever negation tactics to get paid…god forbid the player says anything back 😱

ya'll can't even come to grips with how poorly your team handled the situation all the same. Nah it's just the player

Can you elaborate? I didn't get to see Rice but from my understanding the difference between Rice being a diva and TO was Rice strived for excellence and held everyone around him to the same standard yeah he got pissed when we lost not to say TO didn't but he made a spectacle out of himself and had such a bad reputation inside the locker room he was snubbed a 1st ballot. Saying Rice didn't have a instagram is weak sauce he was interviewed constantly and by all accounts was a consummate professional. Only things I can think of where he caused a fuss was the trading of Joe Montana and retiring because the broncos wouldn't start him at 43 years old

TO being snubbed wasn't about teammates but the media. He definitely was a problem for the media, his teammates talked him up for the most part.

Jerry was ABSOLUTELY a diva at the beginning. It's just that most of that media doesn't exist on the internet it was so long ago. Rice was pissed that he didn't get the media attention Joe got.

I think there is little point in the discussion about Aiyuk since it's just social media. If he's healthy and doesn't earn the money then the team will move him on.
He's turning into a Diva. Like Dee_VAH Samuel. A lot of these WR's do that. I wish we didn't pay him that huge salary and guaranteed money. A WR is rarely worth the big cap hit. You want a Jerry Rice type for a huge contract. We haven't had one since the guy himself. We have had some good ones. But not that good. The big problem obviously is the terrible injury. Nobody knows if he will be the same or his career will be shorter. His Diva ways you sort of just have to deal with. That's not even a big issue. Most WR's have that. It's a feature of WR very often.
Dude has to win superbowl mvp for me to give a s**t about him anymore. I'm so done with this dude and his attitude problems
Lol I can deal with some diva as long as he makes some killer plays in the playoffs. I would prefer he just salsa but idc..get me a damn SB..kick your shorts all you want lol get me that SB tudsy..if not, take that drama to Vegas lol.

Exactly! They are going to move him because he's a dick. He will not be on this roster next year. That's a ten dollar bet.

If they move him it wouldn't surprise me if it was more about the money he's getting than any behavioral issues.

And behavioral with who? A couple butt hurt fans lol? Maybe we should move Bosa too because his political thoughts don't align with CA as a whole and a ton of fans?

Based off what? Him making a couple posts because fans are being little b***hes? You can't cry about someone being entitled an emotional when that's exactly what you're doing

Yup, Jerry's teammates nicknamed him "Fifi" lol. He absolutely was pissed that Joe was getting all the credit. Is what it is. He was a perfectionist and worked harder than anyone else and wanted some recognition.

it's not like BA hasn't worked his ass off or has some drama with his teammates.

I'd bet money if our fans would stop being whinny fickle people directing comments towards BA, he wouldn't be posting retaliatory posts telling certain folks to STFU. You can't run around saying how much you hate fires, when you're the one stoking them.

I wondered at the time why they were calling him Fifi. Roger Craig said it was because of his haircut as a rookie. He quickly impressed his teammates, but he struggled with fans being hard on him for drops. Later in life he admitted that he lashed out at fans and had severe confidence issues that he eventually got over with the help of teammates and coaches who he said were consistently supportive at the time.

A lot of great players have stuggled with fan interactions. Klay Thompson struggled with it and his reaction was to withdraw and just be private. Draymond Green's reaction is always to attack. None of that makes them worse as players or teammates.

Buddy, you've come off as emotional and entitled over BA for over a year…most of it has nothing to do with him on the field.
Jerry Rice got SB MVP over the winning quarterback Montana in SB XXIII. How often does that happen? That was his fourth year in the league. That's recognition.

At the end of his career, he was asked who was his favorite quarterback. He's caught more touchdowns from Steve Young than Joe Montana, but nope, it was still Montana.

I do remember Jerry teasing retirement immediately after a SB win, while obviously he never quit until he wasn't allowed off the bench many years later.

Someone needs to refresh my memory how he resented Montana's fame and felt insufficiently recognized.
