While true, there's obviously some hurt feelings in Berry's camp in this.

Eric Berry, the guy who played all pro football after cancer is selfish.

I agree but there's no reason to holdout at this point, he can't get more this year

If I'm any one thing, it's a special kind of douchebag...

Anyone else going to be shocked when he signs the week of the 3rd PS game?

(sarcasm)

In your case, I'm gonna need definitions of both "special" and "douchebag" please.

LMAO

I only used the word "selfish" because King was dancing around the fact that not every player is like that. I personally would just say he's all about the money.

The thing is, not ever player or person is, and I'm one of them. If I'm making millions of dollars to play the game I love the only thing that would matter to me is achieving that ultimate goal.

If he's the leader and person he's been made out to be, I expect a little more. It's all good that he feels that way, but it's dissapointing, and makes me all the more angry that some would cut Charles in a heartbeat, but think we should just give into Berry's demands because of his leadership.

Absolutely.

It's more fun to play shock and awe

Sadly, I have a slowpitch softball game I have to rush to, but I'll be wearing slide pants, going spikes up into second and cussing at my 2b if he doesn't complete the pivot on the double play ball.

I think that probably says all that needs to be said.

Makes sense

That covers it.

(and I guess CoMo didn't get the 6 inches of rain the last 48-72 hours that STL received. Enjoy playing ball, nothing but mud here)

Dude I get it. You're team first rah rah guy. It's easy as hell to be that as a fan looking in from the outside. It's not the same when you're the one putting your livelihood and your body on the line. It's not the same when the team can cut you anytime they feel like it.

What ever gave you the impression this guy was the Rah Rah type?

LMAO

The difference is that Berry's holdout isn't about money. He's guaranteed to earn $10.8 million the second he signs his tender.

Now, if he wants to sit out this year in the hopes that the Chiefs just release him so he can play elsewhere, that's his right. But he won't see a cent of the $10.8 million.

Right. He's going to sign around the team when the team goes back to KC. We see this happen every year around the league yet people still get their feelings hurt over it. It's amazing.
