I believe he is talking about players in general.

English? Do you read it?
yes he can... I think most people here respect him a lot as a person and for his time in the B&G... he can still lose thatEven if he were talking about Drew (which I don't think he was)
Could he be liked even less than he is on this forum already?
what are you talking about?
He's saying that there is a double standard that its ok for teams to cut players, but that when players over-perform, people usually call them selfish if they hold out for more money.
First, if he *was* talking about Drew, its being supportive of Drew. Second, he's not talking about Drew.
!!!Maybe He was talking about Herring. According to @KristianGaric he was asked to take a pay cut, he declined and was released by the team
First off, these guys are already being paid too much. It's made a good number of them lazy, selfish, and just flat out ignorant. Their contracts are for them to perform, period. Most individuals could live numerous lifetimes off some of the deals these guys make and when they "outperform" their deal, they think they need more? The point of being given that deal in the first place was for you to perform at a high level, week in and week out. I don't think any of them have it in their contract, "...since we're paying you this much, it's okay to under preform time to time".
Flacco really ****** me off with this. He stated that with this new deal, he felt, "respected". So he didn't feel respected when the Baltimore Ravens spent a 1st round draft choice on you? He didn't feel respected when the Ravens named him their starting QB? He felt respected when they paid him nearly 1/5th of the team's salary cap.
Sorry for the rant, just all this pissing and moaning for money drives me nuts in the off-season. Though, I don't care for him Warren Sapp said it best, "You're being paid a king's ransom to play a child's game". I just wish some of these players would actually start putting their team and the game first again.
