During the course of life, I have been given "Man Rules" by various people (male and female) in my life.
Man Rules
1. Don't rat to save yourself or make your mistake look not as bad putting another man's business in the street.
2. Be a Dad/father even when being a Husband is impossible. Its not the child's fault.
3. Don't count another man's money and don't you count my money.
4. Never hit/beat a woman. Only a punk/coward beats woman out of anger in a relationship.
5. Don't react..act.
6. Let your yea be yea and your nay nay. Don't be wishy washy.
Rule number 3 has been violated on this forum exponentially regarding Dak Prescott who is playing under contract on his rookie deal at OTAs, in camp, and planning on winning this season as he had winning seasons his entire life in football (high school to pros).
Why are people counting his money, making comments of what a man deserves, counting other men money, and making judgments on a mans money and worth? Your violating the man rule.
Don't lose your man card.
Dak deserves what he earns. Whatever happens will be right for both parties because it takes a minimum of 2 parties to reach agreement on a contract. The market is the market and you are what you are. So I do not have to break any man rules when it comes to a man's money. If you can get it, get it. If you don't, get it where you can and live with the decision.
The reporter, Jane Salter, that reported Dak turn down $30M and wants $40M reported that to have a reaction. She has lost my respect. It was reported to sensationalize not to inform. All the reactions that he does not deserve $30M or $40M have lost their man cards. The man is negotiating a contract that can be voided at anytime by his employer at his employers choice. So undoubtedly having just annual salary number is not enough. So that type of reporting by the NFL Network confirms my thoughts of what I know the NFL is.
As for Zeke. NFL collective bargaining says he has to report by the week 10 (mid Nov.) deadline to accrue a season. So what else is new with Zeke missing games for non injury reasons. Cowboys have 2 years on a contract and 2 franchise tags. Zeke will get what he earns.
