Looks like Pierce has been a naughty boy this year...

That's not the point. I think you and Curmudgeon are missing the point here. What's annoying about Pierce is here's a guy who is given a chance to play in the NFL by the Redskins when no one else did. Props to him for working hard when given the opportunity and emerging as a top linebacker, enough so that he could go out and make demands on the free agent market. Now, instead of thanking the Redskins for giving him his opportunity, or even just keeping his mouth shut he's spent the past four years bad mouthing the Redskins at nearly every opportunity he gets. I have no problem with people leaving teams for "business reasons" but if it's business, then just keep it business. Pierce makes it personal.
