okay,
how is is acceptable for a player under contract with 1 year left to start making demands to be paid like he's the best or trade me so i i will be paid.
what mack did isn't uncommon. it happens more that you think in the NFL . what he did was take the organization hostage, dictated terms to them and called the shots, and if he didn't get his way he wouldn't play or cause a distraction. in the NFL the front office has zero power over such situations.
you don't see baseball players do this when they sign a multi year team friendly deal early on. and subsequently turn into a stud to be significantly underpaid.
i'm not saying mack didn't deserve the money, but since this happens more than you think why wouldn't moar NFL players utilize this card to get more cash. it's frikken failsafe and works all the time for an above avg top player
and lol @ the bears giving up two #1's and a #3 + paying him 90 mil guaranteed including a 60mil signing bonus.
