I am OK with him wanting out, what I am not OK with is that his team said no way, you have a contract, on several occasions, and he is still acting like a baby.
What he is doing is childish. He is in effect saying "I'm not getting my way, so I will continue to bitch and moan until I get my way." You are endorsing that behavior?

I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm endorsing that behavior, but I'm not strongly condemning it either. During Super Bowl week he was very vocal about not wanting to be a Bengal next year. At the Pro Bowl, he said 'I'm not talking about it anymore, I said my piece.' When he's been on his promo tour for Degree he keeps getting asked about it and repeating, 'I've already said what I wanted to say, so let's move on.'
If you saw the NFL Network interview, he said that no less than 7-8 times and Eisen, Woodson and Dukes kept pressing him for him to say something. Same thing on NFL Live, he gets asked the same questions repeatedly, and he gives the same answer or finally says, yes I want out.
It's not a TO situation where he and Rosenhaus are calling press conferences in his driveway. He's not continuing to just randomly make noise about it, but if asked he answers honestly. What's the issue with that?
