Way to stand out there on a branch Bucky... Do you feel "great" about Dak getting top $$ and being the QB going into a playoff game??
Bucky? I'm not Sebastian Stan, lol.
I have not made a post or thread about player contracts in years. If I recall correctly, the last thread I did was a discussion on player salaries being codified.
Why? Because I do not believe any professional player, in every sport, throughout the world, is *worth* the hundreds, millions, tens of millions, or hundreds of millions that their market assigns them.
Do I feel 'great' about Prescott getting $160 million in his last contract? No. Same for any and every other player you can name. Additionally, I am one of the few (literally) members on this board who have been argued publicly about the current owner/union collective bargaining agreement structure since the mid-1990's. Even before CowboysZone. The same structure that has inflated player contracts on an elevated upward curve for three decades.
Do I feel great about Prescott being the quarterback who led the team against the Green Bay Packers' wild card matchup? No. My answer is from hindsight though. It would have been better to ask me before that nonsense went down.
