So Beanie "the Bust" Wells wants to woo the other 31 teams in the NFL? Sure Beanie, go ahead. But not from the football field on Sunday. How about you do it at their facilities during some private workouts?

You see, after your comments regarding your future -- or lack of future -- in Arizona, I think it is best to cut ties with you now and I can only hope that Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt agrees and sits your ass as an inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers. You see if all you really want to do is showcase yourself, then you are a selfish player who has no business putting on that Cardinals uniform this weekend.

I would've much rather you taken the blame for your ridiculous fumble that gave Chicago seven points on Sunday, took the blame for another lousy year and that awful 2.7 yards per carry average.

Maybe you should have said how you are looking forward to ending the season on a good note with a win against your division rival. Maybe you should have just taken the high road. But what we get out of your comments is that you really don't care about winning the football game or helping the offense get out of this season-long slump. Nothing about taking some of the load off of Brian Hoyer making his first start as a Cardinal. Nothing about having some pride. No, your comments display just how selfish you really are.

I wish the Cardinals could have been more selfish and asked for some of the money back that you stole from them since you were their first-round pick in 2009. So what did the Cardinals get out of the four years of Beanie Wells -- a lousy 2,471 yards rushing, 24 touchdowns, 10 fumbles and one season in which you were able to play 16 games.

You were so good, Beanie, that the Cardinals had to use a second round pick just two years after drafting you on another running back because you weren't panning out. If you were any good they could have used that pick on other needs -- and trust me, they have plenty of them.

So go take your ball and go home, but be careful not to drop it like you did Sunday.

Oh, and one more thing...don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Good riddance.

    As you Gambo. I'm very disappointed in Beanie Wells play and his comments and yes he needs to go. But I'm not one to throw down a venomous rant like this one.

    He should be mad
    If Dockett was fined 6 figures - what about Beanie? He is playing for 31 other teams? He is only under contract with the cardinals.

    Auditioning for other teams, really? Frankly I think they've seen more than enough. Injuries aside, everyone wanted you to succeed Mr. Wells and gave you every benefit of the doubt. Your last act, falling down and fumbling pretty much said it all. Suffering from Reggie Jackson disease (greatly over estimated opinion of ones own self worth) not withstanding, is no excuse for flat out dismal performance. Enjoy the CFL if you can get picked up....

    Makes Me Wish
    This article makes me wish that some of the fans, and obviously players, had the same pride in this organization as you.

    Yet another reason...
    ...why Whiz is a good coach. Gambo summed up what every person who actually wants the Cardinals to succeed is thinking right now about Beanie Wells, including Whiz. But Whiz has the strength, the leadership, and restraint to take the high road when he is talking in public. Kudos to Gambo for calling out Beanie, but kudos also to Whiz for his leadership in handling a childish and selfish player.

    I'm glad the Cards picked Wells
    Beanie Wells turned out to be a bust in AZ - for all the reasons they said he would when he came out. Lacked focus and commitment, always injured and puts the ball on the ground. He was a high risk / high reward pick, which the Cardinals have shyed away from before. So the fact that they were willing to roll the dice means change is truly here. Sucks we blew our 1st rounder, but retrospect is always 20/20

    In his defense
    He DID also say "I don't know if I've done things up to our organization's standards here." If you don't do things up to standards, then you should expect that you'll probably lose your job. I think he's realized that he hasn't performed well enough to keep his job, so now he has to show another team that he might still have enough potential to take a chance on.

    Completely agree
    with you Gambo. As for the fans who posted above, get some cajones and say what needs to be said. Beanie Wells just shoved it in your face and you're going to say Gambo is on a rant? All of us should be ranting. What Beanie said was selfish and classless and shows what type of "professional" he is. I'm with Gambo. In fact, I hope the door hits Beanie in his (butt) on the way out - a little karma for the pain in the (butt) he's been for us the last 4 years. Move on.
