Re: Why moving on from Bruce Allen this year is pivotal to the future of the franchise.

This all started last off-season when Trent asked for more money when he still had two years left on his deal. When the team said no, trents cancerous behavior has escalated:
- first, he held out of offseason activities
- he remained silent while he directed his cronies to spread rumors about some wrongdoing in the part Of the medical staff
- he held out of regular season games
- he comes back and publicaly smears the team and medical staff, telling an outrageous story full of contradictions and serious allegations
- when the team requests an independent investigation, Trent refuses to allow it (which no innocent person would do if here was true medical malpractice)
- now he’s accusing the team president of racist actions.
What general manager (most of whom are white men) is going to want to bring in a player who has shown that this is what he will do when he wants more money than you agreed to pay him? Especially when this player is old, injury prone, and one failed drug test away from a 1 year suspension.

There will be plenty of teams more than willing to bring Trent in. He will get paid handsomely for sure.
