Then don't sign. Why does it matter if

He may be smart; realizing he will be dead about 20 years early b/c of football, realizing that there is a good chance he will suck and will never be worth another big contract, he uses his unique bargining position to his advantage.

When players are smart, they are lamblasted. I never understand it.
This is what kills me about fans.
