sumthing has 2 b dun. a top draft pick isnt even that enticing rite now, just means u hav 2 waste a bunch of cap space on an unproven player. its also not fair, proven vets shud b gettin more than unproven potential busts.

Goodell CAN EAT DICK.

Colleges shaft the fuck out of these athletes for upwards of 4 years, not paying them SHIT while the Colleges prosper. If they don't like the size of rookie contracts, then oh well. Raise the Salary cap to compensate. You motherfuckers.

I see your point, but the fault is in capitalism, not the players OR the college. The fact that ANYONE gets paid MILLIONS OF FUCKIN DOLLARS to PLAY a sport (notice it is PLAY, not WORK), is asinine.

Teachers get paid $45,000 a year...Peyton Mannin gets paid $$$ millions.

I guess a free 4 year university education doesn't count for anything these days.

I think they should just institute a preset rookie scale for rookie contracts like the NBA. That way there's not even a contract issue. A Player gets drafted and his salary is already determined by where he gets picked. Small fully guaranteed contracts should be fine for NFL rooks.

I think in all sprts, this is true. However, the point you were trynna make FAILED miserably. This has NOTHING to do with race.

anyone who doesnt think there are underlining racial issues is either white..or just plain dumb...
I dont think this is a race issue at ALL. As pointed out, there are plenty of CAUCASIAN plyers makin JUST as much right OUT of college as african americans. Not to mention, the percentage of caucasian players compared to african americans in football is extremely lopsided, so of course there are only a few whtie rookies gettin big checks, dipshit!

all u fags talkin shit....check this out..im not black...so im not being bias..or anything like that...
Whos talkin shit? Check your butt-hurt feelings at the login screen, please.

after mike vick, benson, pacman...these owners dont wanna give money to black players...this "trial period of performance" is more like a trial period of innocence..
What? I hate people like you. Always lookin for some racial undertone. Please, do us all a favor and never come back here. You are full of ignorance, as youre just feeding into your own bullshit. Your the one turning everything into a black/white issue...which is the PROBLEM in our society.

Once again, anyone who thinks it is FAIR for a rookie, who has NEVER EVEN PLAYED A FUCIN NFL GAME, to get paid MORE than a fair percentage of VETS in the league, needs to be slapped, and BANNED from football, period.

Jake Long hasn't taken one fuckin snap in the pro's... how about Russel vs Brady's contract? the amount of money these rookies get is fuckin insane..

I am not sure how their contracts compare but Brady could have gotten a bigger contract but being the team player that he is... he settled for less.

"Not to mention, the percentage of caucasian players compared to african americans in football is extremely lopsided"

ARE YOU REALLY THAT FUCKING STUPID???

u r proving my point for me!!!!!!!!!

hit the drawing boards...SON...

its a problem to look at things in a black/white issue????

Yes, thats what i said.

Yes, becuase it was retarded to bring up.

dont be a fag, please...
Heed your own words, lil fella.

"Not to mention, the percentage of caucasian players compared to african americans in football is extremely lopsided"

ARE YOU REALLY THAT FUCKING STUPID???

u r proving my point for me!!!!!!!!!
Uhhhh...no. What about the black players in the league that are already making uber millions of dollars? How does YOUR agumrnt, support that? it doesnt, thats why youre a fuckin imbecile.

For the last time, fuckmouth, all we are saying is that an UNPROVEN rookie, that has NEVER taken a snap in the NFL, black, white, or purple, does NOT deserve these RIDICULOUS contracts, that are in some cases, worth MORE than those that have been in the league for several years. What warrants them to these contracts? Why do they deserve them? THey cant playin the league for a few years, and THEN earn the big contracts? When did earning a reward get lost in trasnlation? How do you NOT get this concept?

if there is such a SMALLER percentage of white players than OBVIOUSLY this "new idea" will DISPROPORTIONATELY hurt BLACK PLAYERS
See above.

hit the drawing boards...SON...
I dont draw, kid...

its a problem to look at things in a black/white issue????

Yes, dipshit.

you uneducated fuck...YOU ARE THE IGNORANT ONE...

go to school...
I am in school. But appearntly, YOU are having a hard time comprehending the easiest of concepts here, and making a whole other issue out of thin fuckin air.

And im the dumb one? You arent even making any sense at all and are looking past the OBVIOUS, to try and SNIFF out some race issue that is NOT there...only in YOUR ignorant, race driven head.


over 14,000 posts?????????????

holy shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol...like i said...pick up a book...get an education...there is life outside the siccness
Well, when I work on the internet for 9 hours a day and get paid quite well, I dont NEED to do a goddamn fuckin thing other than what I am doing.

Please leave your rhetorics and fallacies at home.
