Re: Around the NFL Offseason 2013

With Cruz already complaining about his new contract publicly and saying he's STILL underpaid, I'm glad the Giants signed him. By the end of his contract, I bet they'll regret this deal. He's showing signs of being one of those "pay me" WRs that will never be content. I wouldn't be surprised if he starts giving less than 100% effort because he feels he's worth more than what they're paying him.

I think it is pretty much human nature to want be paid what you think you are worth. Most people generally think they are underpaid.

I rarely hear this:

"Gosh I am idiot and they totally overpay me here at XYZ company."

Of course for athletes it is all on a grand scale.

Plus I never understand why fans get so wrapped up in the $$$ I don't give a shit if he is making a buck or $100 million doesn't change my bottom line.

LOL , thank you for your concern , really. Cruz will make at least what his contract is worth in side deals alone and he knows it ,it an advantage of playing in the NY area.

I like the guy, and I do think he took a home town deal to stay. He shouldnt be mad at that, but I can understand his frustration.

Re: Around the NFL Offseason 2013

So was that Jay-Z first big contract, the Cruz deal? Well when you stupid and sign with someone like that you take a risk and in football that risk is way bigger because you usually get one shot at a big deal. Always been a bigger Nas fan, smh.

Cowboys reportedly intend to sign Demetress Bell | ProFootballTalk

Hopefully he stays in the division and he would be a good fit in Dallas.
