No need to be sorry fred! I get good feedback from you guys, but I make the final choices. Please don't ever feel bad for the banter here. It's fun and no matter what happens I'll still have had a good time. I hope you all will too!

*hugs*

As to T.O. It's been duely noted (over and over again...here, in my area at least) of his behavior over the years. He's gotten worse since this Drew dude took over his management. And it seems to me he might have a lot of YES men/women hanging out in his posse'. Much like Michael Jackson, no one cares about him enough to tell him to stop making an ass of himself and ruining what could be a brilliant career.

One of the worst things I heard him say to the press was something like (paraphrasing again)...I'm the best player this team has and I deserve more money. I'm like anyone else...I'm just trying to feed my family!

This ^^^ from a man who makes millions for playing a game! Granted...it's a tough game...but ALL the players are in it the same as him.

Also, I wonder if he knows the plight of the homeless people in the town he makes so much money in? If he could walk a mile in their shoes I think he'd consider his salary satisfactory for the time being!

And whatever happened to holding yourself responsible for signing a contract? In these times a contract doesn't seem to mean didley squat. What's the purpose? A signature and/or a handshake used to mean something. People used to stand behind what they signed. Now they just disregard it on a whim. The more the disregard is tolerated, the less a signature means! So...why have anyone sign anything?

OMG! *looks down at the soapbox under my feet*

How'd that get there? LOL!
