I hope anyone in his situation would be more about family than a job.

Yes and no....He never showed up last year in OTA right? Or was it in off season work outs? Anyway have no proublem with the family thing but when you are getting the kind of money these guys are getting you need to go the extra mile!!!! Just like J.Taylor he was not ready to go when the perseason started that is why Vinny and Danny is having workout with the team in contracts now.

He was working out, but in AZ where he preferred.

Yeah, what a selfish prick being concerned with his comatose father and his step mother being diagnosed with cancer. Sheesh, typical athletes all about me, me, me. You embarrass me to be a fan of the same team.

I wasn't a huge Springs fan the past couple of years, but that was only because of his lack of toughness-seemed like he'd only play when he was 100%- but it had nothing to do with his commitment to family issues. If anything I respected him more as a man for that.

I agree 100% with this post....

I mean the family stuff shouldn't even be discussed... you're an utter dumb ass if you're mad at the guy for anything family related...

I do agree, that he seemed very fickle the past couple years in terms of sitting out... I just look at other guys on the team and saw them play through injuries that I think Springs could have as well... I really have no idea the seriousness of the injuries... and some people are just plain tougher than others physically and a strained calf for one guy could be completely different than a strained calf for another guy....

I'll miss Springs.. I was a fan of the guy.. I think he was the spark that started our run to the playoffs in 2007, and when he was healthy we were much better on defense...he just was never really healthy. .

Well I am glad I am that low to you. I remember well that coach was not happy with him not being around at all in the spring! What you think of me I can give a s!@#. As for toughness I really never gave it much thought but I did notice he didn't seem to be a D.Green or a Art M. kind of Redskin!
