“For me, that comes from sources that have no idea. I’ve been in a lot more locker-rooms than a lot of people that are spouting off, and there’s really good character in that room.

“Nobody knows the inner-workings of our group better than us. We have guys getting handed Muhammad Ali awards, and we’re questioning character now? That’s B.S. in my mind. No one is in that room.

“Everyone wants to point blame, but the blame, at the end of the day, goes to the guys that are running it, not the players in there. That’s me. So to question their character? That’s B.S.”
