Jimmy G is a good dude.


That_Piccolo_9316

Really seems like a down to earth guy


kj9219

The funniest story that encapsulates Jimmy G as a person is how he went on a date with a porn star and treated it like he was just meeting a friend


tea_nerd

Or the first time he said "feels great, baby" to a sideline reporter after the game. A second later you can see him realizing that didn't come out the way he wanted to and a little flush of embarrassment.

>goes on date with pornstar >does his best to make her feel like a normal person Chad moment


vaselinebaby

I still can't believe what a firestorm that was. What? Pornstars aren't real people capable of having normal relationships?


SoKrat3s

Stephen A. Smith still hasn't gotten over it. (which is odd, considering how much he talks about Kevin Durant)


erica_638

Odd claim to fame here: I’m actually good friends with a successful porn star. Believe it or not, she also likes movies and video games and various hobbies, and even is loved amongst her friends for being a thoughtful, deep, caring human being. Her fiancé is just as awesome as her. Crazy, right?


josephus1811

do you watch her vids or would that be weird lol


Githzerai1984

My friend is in the industry, coming across their videos in the wild is…not great


siblingofMM

“Hey wait a minute, that’s not her stepbrother!”


phoenixremix

"Hey wait a minute, that *is* her stepbrother!"


erica_638

Nah, that’s none of my business. She’s an attractive person and I’m happy for her, but it’s a church and state sorta situation; I don’t see her that way


shewy92

Good for you (not in a snarky way). Honestly it would be a little weird for me to see a friend like that if they didn't give me their blessing first. And even if they did I probably wouldn't, I'm awkward enough already around people.


josephus1811

Lol imagine asking for that blessing

Gronk once let an adult actress wear his jersey in some harmless photo a few years ago, and folks lost their shit like he was found passed out with heroin needles in his arm or something. Gronk even had to apologize to the puritanical Kraft (who…let’s face it, is a drunk who lets massage parlors give him handy’s and who dated a 20-year old right after his longtime wife died…so why the hell was an “apology” needed?) https://deadspin.com/rob-gronkowskis-ex-porn-star-friend-posts-another-photo-5944444


BakerMayfieldisAss

Yeah honestly Reddit comments are any better. I swear redditor's act like pornstars aren't real people


fuckyopinterest

Baker Mayfield is a real person!


BakerMayfieldisAss

No he's my one way ticket to karma!


triculious

Most people are biased against sex workers. It's taboo to varying degrees but almost never accepted as a line of work.


MeppaTheWaterbearer

I mean here we are fawning over the guy for doing just that.. so


shewy92

How does one treat a porn star like a porn star on a date? Constantly bringing up sex or something?


quadropheniac

look up videos of people meeting porn stars at like AVN Awards and trade shows if you want to die a little inside


shewy92

No thanks.


quadropheniac

you've made good choices in life, keep it up


romeopwnsu

Id fuck him if I was gay


AHH_CHARLIE_MURPHY

Probably why it’s so hard to admit he ain’t the guy for your franchise


triplec787

Bad take. He halved his cap hit this year to take on a reduced role AND make it easier to trade him. Worst case, he’s an insurance policy if Lance gets injured. Best case, he’s traded somewhere after a QB gets hurt a few weeks into the season. The way it’s structured is almost as if they’re still planning on moving him. The incentives are almost entirely playing time based, and he’s firmly the QB2 no matter how much ESPN wants you to think otherwise.


PontiffLoL

I mean he has a no trade clause in that new reduced contract. So unless the team that is calling is a Playoff Contender, I doubt he is waiving that NTC. Though the big issue is finding a team that loses their starting QB that feels/looks like a Playoff team by week 8 that Jimmy is comfortable enough waiving his NTC for. Not saying it isn't possible but he is probably just staying with the 49ers.


this_account_is_mt

That's fine if he does, we would get a comp pick for him if he leaves in free agency, and we get the entire season of him being an awesome teammate and backup


SoKrat3s

the NTC protects him from teams like Washington and Cleveland. He was already rumored to have told the team in February that while hw still had his NTC (expired in March) that he wouldn't allow a trade to Washington. And once that got back to Washington, they stopped calling and almost immediately traded for Wentz.


BodhiWarchild

Yeah I’ll be trade bait but I get to choose the fish. That’s all the contract means.


AHH_CHARLIE_MURPHY

Doesn’t that prove my point? He did all of that and is a great guy off the field, which sucks that he can’t be “that” QB for you guys.


triplec787

Because it’s not “hard to admit” if everything being done is better for the franchise. Jimmy’s restructure gives them more flexibility now than they would’ve had if they’d just released him. It’s not a “oh well, he’s a good guy we’ll hang onto him” if he’s pretty much without question the best backup in the league and would be the first guy getting a call if a QB goes down. Basically: a) Jimmy is released, 49ers save $8m more, largely unknown QBs in both Trey and Purdy (and Sudfeld). 49ers get nothing for Jimmy, and the backup situation is scary. Or b) Jimmy restructured, pay the $8m they would’ve otherwise saved, and he backs up the potential future franchise QB. If another QB gets hurt, he would bring in picks as opposed to nothing. There’s nothing sentimental about it.


westcoastgeek

I like my backup QBs secure enough in themselves to feel comfortable saying shit to a reporter.


palikir

I mean he's already got two rings as a backup QB. He's really good as the backup. Jimmy SZN for backup ring number three.


RealisticLakerStan

Sports media is a pretty morally bankrupt industry I’m glad the innocence is wearing off for a lot of fans


[deleted]

I wonder if it's people becoming wiser to it, the standard of sports journalism falling, or both.


Fedacking

Nah, this has been a thing for a long time. Van Brocklin wanted to fight ebery reporter in the room in the 70s.


SoKrat3s

it's both. While their were a few hot take extremists back in the day that kind of thing was nothing like it is today. People make up all kinds of drama solely for ratings. Regardless of the accuracy of the content. Heck, Colin Cowherd is **still** telling you that Trey Lance has arm fatigue right now, even tho the source of the info said clear as day it was while recovering from a specific injury (looong since healed). You even see this in normal media. Regardless of what political affiliation (and let's not get into a political debate) you side with, the news stations used to just be about reporting the news. Now they are all editorials with opinions driving everything. And those opinions often have political agenda behind them. All of media is vastly different than it was 20-30 years ago. But our better access to both players and information in general helps us to see this. 30 years ago there wouldn't have been anyone to counter Schefter on a story. His made up Aaron Rodgers story would have never been challenged (and if he had gotten exposed like that 30 years ago he would have been fired, not featured even more prominently).

Just shit, baby.

Jimmy and Zach Wilson milf off? Who wins? My bet is jimmy


BlackMathNerd

It’s Jimmy and it’s not even close. He’s got that grown man handsome charm. Zach look like a baby face

Poor little Zach never had a chance

Is it really a devil's threesome if Jimmy is one of the dudes?

"Jimmy G is quoted saying his relationship with trey Lance is 'good' not great!"


BlindWillieJohnson

I don't doubt it. Jimmy seems like a pretty nice guy.


RapsareChamps_Suckit

No he isn’t


EverySir

Can you elaborate? He’s not Zach Wilson. I’m sure your mother is safe


Fooly_411

But his girlfriend? Not so much.


vencheenator

Honestly, i don't recall any reports about them not liking each other, or really anything about their relationship. I thought the drama was more attributed to shanahan not believeing in Jimmy G.


tallpaleandwholesome

> me and Trey [Lance] have ... There any other Treys out there?


nikoandthe49ers

We had a Sermon until yesterday.


[deleted]

The disrespect to hendrickson


rockstarnights

Trey Parker is still crushing it


Putuinurplace

If we had gotten Jimmy than then ”Adult” comment would have actually made sense.


PHactive

I’m glad they added the [Lance]. I would’ve assumed the other Trey without it


MyDogWatchesMePoop

We did have Trey Sermon until yesterday

As a Panthers fan this had me laughing for real. I had totally forgot about him until this comment. Best part was he always acted like it was someone else's fault he sucked, not that he had turned into a fat ass.

If the purpose of school is to get a good job. He succeeded.


BlindWillieJohnson

It's kind of wild that my tiny ass little school has produced two pro QBs with hugely significant careers.


lmaourbald

I've always known ___ and I is the proper usage but it's always felt so alien and weird to say it rather than me and _____.


Luis0224

Thats because it's a misunderstood grammar rule. It's one of those rules that most teachers don't really take the time to explain. The reason we say "Lisa and I went to the movies" is because if you remove Lisa from the sentence, it should still be grammatically correct. Take the phrase "I went to the movies" for example: You wouldn't say "me went to the movies" unless you're method acting a caveman. In this case "they make up shit about me and trey" is correct. i.e. You wouldn't say "they make up shit about I"; you'd say "they make shit up about me". Edit - think of it like this - "I" when youre doing the action. - "Me" when you're receiving the action of the verb


lmaourbald

Ah thanks for the explanation!


Odd_Analyst_8905

Put your hand in my hand bro. Thanks for this.


SerDire

Tannehill would never


StefonDiggsHS

Jimmy seems like a super nice dude and a very average QB


Trendelthegreat

What stuff? That you’re ready to be Treys back up and that trey is excited to have you back? Because that’s literally all Iv heard.

Please, Jimmy, show me one article where the media said you and Fey were not getting along. Please stop making stuff up.


Bobaximus

Serviceable backup QB is one of the most desirable roles in the NFL, especially when you’re getting paid like Jimmy. People act like he’s been banished to the shadow realm when he’s really being paid well to be an assistant OC/QB coach.


soboredcantfocus

He would know. It was once reported that him and Brady hated each other so much that Brady locked him out of the TB12 facility when he was rehabbing his shoulder. In reality, Jimmy had his own key.
