Like I said I love them being vocal. I love all the Karen’s getting exposed. I’m not for silencing anyone. But you will be held accountable for what you say good or bad.

Ok, Karen.

Not to be sexist though...
Just generalizing.

Not to be sexist: insert completely sexist comment. Lol

Yeah as far as I could see he didn't offer any sympathetic note or apology for her injuries, he just accused her of unjustly money grabbing. Tell ya what, if his dog tried to eat my arm the way he tried to eat hers, I'd be looking for some serious compensation as well.
I don't know who's fault it will be when it all comes out in the wash, but regardless of fault, I'm not at all sympathetic to the concept of anyone owning vicious, dangerous dogs.
Especially someone who, like you said, "doesn't even appear to be bothered that his dogs injured someone".

No, he accused someone else of that, from my understanding.

Of course. It wasn't said "TO" her, it was said ABOUT her.

It was said about the person who tweeted, but the person who tweeted was not the person Zeke’s dog attacked who filed the lawsuit. The person who Zeke was talking ABOUT wished their relative were the one Zeke’s dog attacked so they could be the ones suing Zeke.

I'm sure Aviano meant that she's the person he was addressing, not necessarily that he was directly speaking to her.

I think people are still under the believe Zeke is speaking about the person who filed the lawsuit. He isn’t.

He is speaking about a person unrelated to the dog attack and lawsuit who wished their relative could have been the one attacked so they could be the ones suing.

Needle tracks. (Just kidding, but just because she was injured by his dogs doesn't mean he was at fault...necessarily.

Could you PLEASE Stop being rational, it’s really bringing me down.

Agree, let's see how this plays out.

Wait, so am I now supposed to be a Zeke hater?

Don't know what you are. You sarcastically quoted my post and I merely explained its intent. It's true though that targets have been known to jump in front of arrows. But that's none of my business.

There is no salary cap in baseball, and teams in basketball can pay their own FA's more than anyone else in a slotted system.

Offhand, I'd say this "cover" doesn't exist near as much as you think!!!!!!!!

But that is my very point. With those other systems you'd think fan opinions would be different, especially where there's no salary cap and teams can pay whatever in Hades they want. But they aren't. So those opinions exist there but salary cap is the only reason people object to high salaries here? Don't think I need a controlled scientific study to put 2 and 2 together in some cases. Not all, but definitely more than some.

I know, and I think the person to whom I was responding knows that too...of course, after going back and re-reading his comment, maybe not.

zeke needs to stay away from social media.

I am pretty certain Zeke is not concerned about any of this.

His homeowner insurance will cover this unless a violation of law has been made. It's usually a percentage of the value of the policy.

I assume Zeke has a home of several million. That means this should all be covered.

Plus he has to have an additional personal liability policy on himself being he earns what he does. Any excess should be covered there.

Zeke has nothing to be personally worried about.

People have to stop jawing about this for now. Its going away.

Nothing to see here folks. Move along as they say.

No joke, they're not?

Since salary is irrelevant in those 2 sports due to the way it's set up, I never paid attention.

To take it personal just how much an athlete in pro sports makes is the height of pure stupidity and selfishness. No wonder you're always giving these guys crapp, if they truly feel that way!!!!

Would you say I'm one of the few, then, who doesn't care what they make except as to how it affects building the rest of the team?

When you triumphantly trot out what Zeke’s attorney’s says, challenging people to address it, treating it like it’s fact, you’re not just offering a different perspective.

You’re right, people do feign objectivity, but their words betray them.

Welllllllll ..... There are times when I've seen you say something like, "$30M a year is more than enough to live great for the rest of someone's life. Why want more than that?" You're not wrong by any means but if one man likes to collect antique cars and another man likes to collect extra dollar bills he oughta be afforded the same space to do how he pleases with his desires (your wife may feel otherwise, lol). I get the whole "help the team manage the cap" spiel but that's the team's responsibility. A player is not going to make more than a team is going to pay him. So if a player demands X and the team gives it to him, it's the team who decided that. A player's gonna use the leverage he has and so is the team but ultimately the team says "yes, we'll pay you" or "take a hike." It's curious why the overwhelming "hate" comes down on the player in these situations. But when it does in other sports where owners can pay what they want, I have to think those are connected.

Again, nowhere did I say the statement was factual. It was a different account in the face of what others were assuming was factual. So when you inject a very different account into the mix I'm curious what folks in that first camp had to say about it. Who better to comment than the self-proclaimed Zeke hater? I was prepared for resistance but he responded very fairly from where I sit (and left me less entertained as a result).

Zekes a top 3 RB in this league, but his contract is pretty easy to deal with, so Im not worried about it, but will need to invest with a draft pick or two in the very near future.

Who are you top 3 backs if you think Zeke is in there.
