Especially when he plays a position that will most likely leave him crippled and ****ed in the head when he retires.
And the teammates that spoke against what he's doing are so ****ing stupid for doing that, it hurts. It's the most backwards thing you can do when you're part of the union. What Bell is doing is also helping them out even if they don't want to acknowledge it. When their contract is up, you think the team won't ask them to take discounts for the good of the team and convince them to take less because "hey, if you fight for more money, you clearly care more about money than football." They ****ed themselves when they spoke out.

I got news for you.. Not everyone cares about money as much as Bell does. Doesn't mean it's wrong if someone cares about money more than someone else but don't act like everyone puts the same level of importance on it.
Anyway, you act like the contract the Steelers offered him would have made him the 10th highest paid RB. He was offered a contract that would have made the highest paid RB in the NFL. He wanted more Steelers said no. He decided to sit out the season because of it. This doesn't make him a hero to the union especially since Conner is having a great season and the Steelers offense hasn't missed a beat.
