    Don't get me wrong, I don't WANT to trade him. But if he's being too unrealistic then I'd be fine with it.

    LMAO CJ is making pocket lint. Peyton STILL got a big pay increase. Why people don't realize this is beyond me. If he really wanted a better team he would take a paycut not a pay increase or if anybody wants to use the CBA, keep your same payrate.

    So it's ok to cut players out of their contract yet it's wrong to want a new contract. Makes total sense.

    My spidey sense tells me CJ is going to make more this year than you even without a new contract...

    If my boss said "show up on the job tomorrow and we'll discuss your salary increase and bonuses" I wonder if I'd choose to skip work...

    Especially when the boss says it on the record and it was published. No way to deny or sweep what the boss said under the rug. Pretty simple, show up and we'll talk.

    Biggums doesn't play in the NFL. And is this really about how much CJ makes in comparison to you?

    Peter Parker? Nah, can't be.....he could figure out how a runningback can positively or negatively affect a quarterback. :D

    Nah it's not, but I don't think six figures is pocket lent to any professional NFL player, not even Manning or Brady.
