I wonder how this guy feels about Neal's reaction to fans who are unhappy with NYG OL play:

That's not the only thing Neal said about Giants fans:

Evan Neal had a whole lot to say Wednesday.

Among his comments, regarding his critics:

“The person that’s commenting on my performance, what does he do? Flip hot dogs and hamburgers somewhere?”

IMO that reference was the most disturbing. And he said it over a day after the game, so it's not like it was some heat of the moment thing. He had time to reflect on it. He's an example of the disconnect that exists between overpaid NFL athletes and their Joe 6 Pack, blue collar fans.

He hasn't been playing very well since being drafted, so he shouldn't be engaging the fans at all. But I can see him being frustrated and it just coming out even if it was a while later.

I think the clip referenced that comment...

I didn't play the clip, so all I saw was that he called his fans 'sheep.' But no biggie. Point is that Neal needs to develop a much thicker skin if he gets that annoyed over fans booing him that he has to spout off over 24 hours later. After all, he is playing in the New York media market, and they can be brutal.
