Sorry, Chris - but my give a **** meter needs new batteries and I'm too lazy to change them.
Ready to see the guys who want to play ball do so tomorrow night. Squabbling over a couple of dollars relatively speaking when the true leaders on this team are taking way less than market value to keep the roster together? Miss me with that shit. Get to work or enjoy finishing your career in some shithole organization like Chicago. |

Cringe. I think he came off a little too aloof and lacking compassion for his teammates and any sort of loyalty.
Yes, in your job, if you request a raise and they don't want grant it, you have the right to not work. And he has that right too. But it doesn't make it a gracious act when you're actively hoping that your employer effectively becomes dysfunctional enough to be forced to cave. And when there are hundreds of thousands of exogenous fans who have a vested interest in the team's success that you are rooting against. The only scenario I'll have a problem with at this point is if the team ups their offer at some point. I think that's just rewarding bad behavior and I hate the thought of that. But if he's principled enough to stay out until Week 8? Well, then do your thing, dude. It's your every right to not work and not get paid. |

I really think that Chris has let himself get twisted into a knot that he doesn't know how to untangle. He ****ed up for sure, but I place most of the blame on the agents here. They were no match for Veach at the negotiating table and made everything so much messier than it needed to be.

On a positive note CJ: well done with the charity work. I’m sure you brightened the lives of many people there that needed it today. Please brighten the lives of the rest of us and sign your contract.

I might feel different if he hadn't acted like an asshat throughout this entire process. You want "your money?" Fine. Then shut the **** up on social and let the process play out. Your actions have literally put everyone involved in a bad spot except for your agents. |
