If Wall disappoints, he'll be able to say that his flip-flopping on tattoos was the first sign... but it's a really WEAK sign right now so he's really just writing to be writing.

Wall is still maintaining the spirit of his earlier promise to present and maintain a marketable image. The tattoos won't be visible while he's in a jersey, so unless you follow him on instagram, you likely will never see them.

And tattoos are more accepted than ever... there are even very marketable celebrities out there who get away with visible tattoos (they're, of course, exceptional at what they do, which Wall isn't yet).

I think Wall's original promise was a bit naive about how tattoos are perceived... but his actions show some savvy and maturity. The immature move would be to get some neck and face tattoos on some "I'm rich (now), Bitch!" .... or to, you know, actually DO something immature or worng like soliciting a tranny or shitting in someone's shoes.
