He is one hell of a player but I dont' know if I'd pick him for my team. Team chemistry is very important in a team and he ruins that. He may be a playmaker, but I'd rather have a whole bunch of players who respected each other and got along. That would make all of them better....

People hate him because he makes more money then a majority of the people in the world will ever see in their lives...and yet he bitches and moans because he's not making 5 million more.... He's always talking shit about his teammates and can't just shut his trap and play the game.......

It's cause...

Of all the major sports...Guess which one makes the most money..?
Which one is the most dangerous..?

And...

Which sport pays its best players $5 million dollar contracts, and considers that to be "best @ postion"..?

Right...

I'd proably be bitching too...I read an article about the sheer brutality of the sport...And how the equivalent to being a wedge buster in the NFL...Is like or about the same as a head on collision @ 35 MPH..? And them guys makin' 250K...

I'm not sure about you fellas, but as fast as T.O. runs...One Sean Taylor running just as fast at the right angle, and T.O. won't know who the fuck he is anymore...Shit, Sean might not know either...One moment, and your ass might not ever be the same again...1 fucking play man, that lasts 25 seconds, and your shit is over...

Bo Jackson...
Sterling Sharpe...
Michael Irvin...
Orlando Brown...
Carson Palmer..?

Is 5 mil a year enough for you to entertain the possiblity of being a vegtable when you're 50..?

Dogg.....I can walk across the street and get killed....... theres always a chance of never being the same.

Now.....not for one second am I going to say that football doesn't increase that risk...I play...and its a bitch sometimes.....and I agree with you that he deserves what he's making....I didn't say thats the reason I dislike him.. I actually like him....I'm just saying the average person's problem with him seems to be that..

Football players should have gaurnteed money....their contract system should be better...considering its the sport that grosses the most money...there are a lot of things about the business side that need to be fixed... Maybe with the new commish

Then let the average person get hit by Ray Lewis, and see won't they rethink their position...
