“Honestly, I don't give a damn if they get mad at me or not. But it's getting to the point where it's getting ridiculous when everything is always dealing with money. You're basically dealing with people's livelihoods. You're dealing with hundreds of thousands of other people in this workplace from the venues to everyone else. To me, you need to stop [expletive] about it. If you want to say that you want to get into a room and meet. Then, do it. Don't just talk about it.”

Good to see a player with a little perspective outside of their own little world. The millionaires strike over money, but the little people pay the price.

I just heard this. Kind of a bizarre statement.

He's really mainly concerned with himself. When he got traded to the Jets he needed to get an advance on his paychecks because he needed to pay for his child support for his 9 kids. I am pretty sure he doesnt have any saved up in the bank so if the NFL doesnt play games he is going to find himself in jail for failure to pay child support.

Also nice of him to verbally threaten Matt Hasselbeck on twitter yesterday. Glad to see the union is working well together. They are going to get raked over the coals by the owners yet again.
