Really? :lol These guys destroy their bodies and minds in this game. They are UNDERPAID, and fucked by a bullshit hard salary cap system. A baseball player can go out there and scratch his dick for 75% of a game and gets 400+ million. Football players get fucked by the owners somehow more than any other major sport. It is sickening.
Yeah I notice how much they have to be coaxed to play the game knowing the risks involved and how they throw their bodies around just because they want to hurt their opponent. I also see how they will obey the rules about the helmets and how they use them. Get real. These guys play because they want too and would play for a lot less if it came to that. You are a walking contradiction.

And you guys supposedly HATE socialism, but are fine with a form of it that keeps these players from realizing their true market value.

Direct your political responses to the one who made a political comment.

Pretty sure it'll be much closer to 4 months than 6. The team doctors have known about this injury for seemingly 18+ months now and there's a 0.0% chance that moneybags Stephen would hand out a 21 AAV deal to a player who is expected to miss 1/4 of the upcoming season.

Exactly, guy's been playing with it most of last season. They got this thoroughly analyzed.

105.3 said on the radio this morning that Lawrence's agent advised him to contact Jerry or Stephen personally and talk to them. The deal was done within 48 hours after that happened. Good on the agent for the suggestion, but why the hell couldn't he have done it sooner? Also, why have an agent if this is a better way of getting results?
