Anyone down on Murray is a class A punk. It wasn't as if Philly gave him funny money to leave, he'd have stayed in Dallas for the same contract. Fact is Dallas just wasn't going to pay him what an 1800 yard rusher should make, considering all factors. I don't blame Dallas, I don't blame Murray, Murray doesn't blame Dallas, but I do blame anyone who rags Murray for not being here any more. Anyone who does surely would take the $12/hour that In-n-Out would pay them over the $8 they are getting at Whataburger so they need to shut up and give me my damn French Fries...

Can I have them animal style??

Wish Demarco the person nothing but the best but may him and his new team fail in the most epic fashion

As much as I want to not like him, I just can't. Class act, but seriously, anywhere but the damn fecals Murray, COME ON MAN.

Murray signing with the Eagles is an example of today's players just not understanding the competition between division rivals. These guys switch teams so often that they believe they are employees of the NFL rather than any one franchise (and there is some truth to that).

For that reason, I believe Murray is surprised by the Cowboys fans negative reaction to his signing with the Eagles. Although I think his move can be construed as a "class" move, I think it has more to do with Murray not wanting to be hated by Cowboys fans.

Well, that ship has sailed.

That shows me even more about Murray. Most players couldn't care less.

He should have signed in Oakland if it was just about the money. I think he wanted to stick it the the front office.

First off, labeling a group of people that feel the same way as "class A punks" isn't right. Just because a person feels a certain way does not make them bad, especially when that opinion differs from yours. He went for more money, he said certain things in front of the Philthy media because there he is looked at as an outsider. And some Boys fans feel betrayed going to the hated Egirls. So he put up a billboard to hopefully make people in Dallas feel better. It's all good. Personally I feel he is a class act and made a business decision.

But to equate the millions he made in Dallas, and now even more with Philthy, to upping your $8 an hour job to a $12 an hour job isn't at all apples to apples. Terrible analogy. Sure, most people WOULD upgrade in that situation. They probably live paycheck to paycheck. Does Murray? No. He did go for the money and that's fine but if he had taken the money Dallas gave him I am pretty sure he wasn't going to have issues paying for diapers or putting food on the table.

It comes naturally for me. I hate him and I hope his career flames out in Philly. This billboard means nothing to me. You are the enemy. I don't want a thank you card from someone sleeping with my ex-wife.

These are images that make Murray's decision such a punch in the gut:

He must've forgotten these moments during negotiations.

Classy move but I wouldn't have even wasted the money. These fans have already forgot what you put your body through last year just for us to get into the post season. But props to Demarco. Wish him the best...just not his team.

Very classy. He was a good man but he got careless with the cap.

I will miss you DeMarco (AND YOUR 1,800 YARDS!)
