I'll grant you that he may be upset that he doesn't have the full support of management by now.

I hate whining by anybody, especially multi-millionaires. So, whatever his reasons for being upset he can keep it to himself, as far as I'm concerned. It's business. He's holding all the cards and he doesn't even seem to know it. He should be thinking "If Snyder doesn't want me, then f*** him! I'll go elsewhere, make just as much money, and light up the little bastard's team whenever I play them." That's how grown men handle business matters.

I agree with you on the part that he's not in a position where anyone should feel sorry for him.

But I think you are missing part of my point: the emotions a man may feel when he's been working his ass off for several years with people he saw every day, he gets the feeling they are starting to build something great together, and then these people he shared emotional moments with for years seem to not believe in him that much, while he has been among those making their part and more than that.

That has to be frustrating.
Again, it's not all about the money he could make here or elsewhere, I think he felt he was part of an adventure here and would like to see the other members of the adventure believe it should continue together.

Now should he keep his emotions to himself? Absolutely, but I don't think he expressed anything else than the desire to stay here long term. Which I'm fine with.

Anyway we wouldn't be having this discussion had the board done what they should have done weeks ago.
