Urlachers Contract... What would happen if it was TO?

TO played one freakin year in Philly and then demanded more money. Is that the case with Urlacher?
TO does live with more scrutiny than most other players. He brought most of that on himself. It is somewhat of a double standard, but TO carries some of that blame.

Don't confuse this with the facts

It has to be racism

Owens was all over the media as soon as he said he wanted more money. Before he even bashed any player or made any off color remarks and before he skipped camp. It was on the National Media as soon as he said..I WANT MORE MONEY...which is what Urlacher did.

Riiiggghhhttt...I'm sure his hissy fits he threw in San Fran, that got him traded to Baltimore (then that was undone cause he balked) and then traded to Philly had NOTHING AT ALL to do with him setting a precident for himself.

Wow.

Maybe, and this is just a shot in the dark here, stop and think just a little before you post again.

This is an obvious case of TO having better Abs than Urlacher. I mean, who cares if Urlacher does sit-ups in his driveway, but T.O. with that washboard stomach, Dreamy!

How many people actually knew these negotiations were taking place? Now I ask you this. What would happen if that was TO asking for more money before the end of his contract? We have already seen what would happen. This is a cut and dry case of racism in the media. Nice White boy argues contract, no media coverage. The trouble maker black guy wants a new contract and their are helicopters in the air and his agent is giving TV interviews. Our society is just so screwed up.

I think the words 'nice' and 'troublemaker' influence the coverage more than 'white' and 'black'.

When there are half a hundred stories about a white CB or a black Olympic ski-jumper then get back to us.

I'm good. Yes, wife is home safe but will be going back to the Sandbox sometime next year. The kids are no trouble at all...I'm blessed with good ones (even the teenagers!). I am waiting to leave for basic training. I joined the Navy Reserve and man, it's going to be cold up in Great Lakes, IL when I finally leave! Heh...but then you'd know that, right?

OP is right, look at all the negative coverage Chad Johnson has been getting because of the color of his skin. I think that nice man has been complaining about his contract or something, I haven't really seen him say much..........

Chad has been very vocal in his protest. When he is quite, so is ESPN and all the other large media outlets.

U know what I hate to agree with you but you are right. Almost like when a rapper gets in trouble for drugs or something it is everywhere. But when a rocker gets into trouble (unless its Amy Winehouse) or goes to rehab you barely hear about it. In some peoples eyes and hearts a guy like TO is not supposed to have the money he has, jealousy and envy lead to alot of hate and racism.

Proofreading or to much alcohol. If he is actually from Dublin, I would put my money on the latter. :laugh1: :beer2: :beer1:

Depending on what part of the south you're from, it's pronounced beaurtiful.

The sad part is that you're attempt at correcting my spelling failed as well.

I feel alive... mwahahahahaha...
