Sick of Free Agency
I am merely posting this to get some things off of my chest. I am sick of this whole Free Agency thing. Players are more into the making money part of the game as opposed to the playing with your heart part.
I want us to resign smoot, but the amount of money that the skins are offering is not enough apparently. He claims that he wants to stay in washington, but the money has to be there. The last time I checked he is being offered a 10 mil signing bonus and he wants something more like 15 mil. What in the hell can you do with 15 that you cant do with 10? That is more money than I will ever see in my life. All of these players talk about having to take care of their families and such. Hell, you can take care of a 3rd world country with that much money. Players need to be reminded that they are getting paid to play the greatest sport on earth and that there are many of people who would love the opportunity to do it for nothing. I understand that agents are necessary, but their greed has had too much of an impact on professional sports. I also understand why there is a NFLPA, but damn, now a days the teams are the ones getting screwed. There has to be some sort of happy medium because I do not like where this is all going. The bottom line is that the players focus should be on the game and not on their wallets because if they invest properly their wallets will be fine. |
