The only criticism I'd have is the communication process between him and the Broncos. It would seem to me, at some point, that there should have been a conversation that went something to the effect of, "Look, don't even bother talking about a trade to X Team, Y Team, or Z Team. I'll just retire instead of going there, so you're wasting your time." That's probably as much on the Broncos as on him, though.
Methinks you're being too sensitive, and letting your misplaced anger towards the NFL's Greatest Franchise cloud your otherwise impeccable judgment.

Yeah, I think the only problem we "donk" fans have with the entire situation is that he sprung this on them AFTER the fact, when he knew he was going to be traded anyway. A little communication from the Plummer party during the whole process would have been nice. It smacks of a situation where he was purely trying to screw over the team that gave him a great second lease on life as an NFL QB.
