Well, I would argue the team says thIs” we pay you $30m upfront, we have your rights for 5 years. Now we may not exercise that right for all 5 years, but that is why we are paying you your money NOW, as opposed to year 4. if you prefer guaranteed contracts like the NBA and the NHL, okay you get $10m guaranteed a year for 3 years, club option for a 4 th at $15m. Put you get paid that $10m over the 17 weeks , over 3 years. Nothing up front. cousins did this, any nfl player could do it, but they LOVE seeing that $30m check up front!

Any player who signs a second deal knows exactly what he is getting. If a player signs a 6 year deal with $30 m guaranteed up front , with very little dead cap hit in the last couple of years, those years would be better termed “ club option “ years. Everyone knows that what it is, the player, the agent , the team .. everyone. if they wanted in cut table contracts, they would do 3 year deals with guaranteed salary and no signing bonus likes Cousins does. the players who get screwed hard in this CBA really are the young players on first contracts that have no choice in contract numbers and structure outside a few small areas. And man, if you an UDFA you really screwed. but to say a player on second contract was ever screwed is just not right. They knew exactly what they signed, and for how long they were guaranteed to be in the team. Just like Mahomes deal right now. He is tied to the Chiefs for 10 years, but the Chiefs are only tied to him for 4. That’s why agents were very losses with that deal. Great team friendly deal, let’s hope the Bills can get something similar to that for JA. OTOH, ( forgetting legal issue) Watsons 4 year contract guaranteed he would be paid for 4 years, and then get another crack at a massive contract when new media deals kicked in. Smart agent, smart player

Combating imaginary racism with actual racism??

You sniveling little man. my exact quote. “they got them as the grades were posted, prove they were not” see I played your game, and you lost. You could not prove they were not posted, so therefore it must be true. I am out rest of the night, will leave you with this last thought. How does your concours deal with the fact that you see everything g through the lens of skin color? Does it hurt to admit you are in fact racist? -

Such a funny man you are. May I remind you brought up hearsay that somehow the grades of the original designees were obtained nefariously because the people involved were white. Your entire conjecture is somehow this was a racist incident. If you take the adjectives of the color of skin out of the story, the outcome remains the same. But for somehow who only views and judges people based on the color of their skin as you do, that’s the only fact that matters in any of this.. the color of ones skin. and yes, I will take the judgement of the superintendent of the school system over yours, and only my bring up the color of his skin because that determines motive in your eyes. Again, as any racist does, you ascribe actions and motives based on skin color, so I wonder what his motivation was to make the judgement he did. -

Easy question. Is the superintendent racist because he made this decision? I won’t even ask you to prove grades are not public, as already asked and already not answered. But you are a champ at avoiding pesky things like facts. So let’s assume they are not. a somewhat plausible , like 100% plausible, is kids exchanging what each other GPAs were. Cause we all know kids who have a high GPA like to keep those details quiet and never tell anyone what their GPA is. And then all the details come out , the kids go home and say man according to the guidelines I should have been valedictorian… and then the parents go to school administration and say “ hey, you are not following your printed, established rules “ the black superintendent agrees . You make the case then racist white people did racist things and racist administration made racist decision. all of it based on the color of someone’s skin.. in other words , racist. -

Again, back up your racist claim that the white folks did something wrong. Your claim, back up your racism with facts. racist is as racist does -

So, shift the argument. again, prove your racist claim that parents/kids did ANYTHING wrong except saying enforce the guidelines that are the printed standard for awarding the designations. and again, tell me what you think of the black superintendent who made the final decision. Is he racist like you? -

You made the claim they weren’t, back it up! show me in any of the published materials where it states the grades were obtained through illegal or otherwise untoward methods. Back your claim up! You made the claim something nefarious happened because the folks involved are white, or in other words, making judgements about someone based on the color. Racist behavior. And please tell me what you think of the black superintendent who made the final decision! Is he racist, or just an Uncle Tom? -

Show me where the grades were not public? You assumed something nefarious based on someone skin color. Racist plain and simple. and I should add, I assume you think the black superintendent who made the decision is racist and an Uncle Tom! -

They got them as the grades are published for the designees, and how they were determined. prove that did not happen. Is there any hint, any, that any thing nefarious happened? Even the slanted pieces in the Hill and NYT had zero hint of that. But a person who only judges people on the basis of their skin color like you makes that leap. man, it must suck to be a racist like you. -

Haha…explain what is white of me. Posted guidelines were not followed, but your dumb ass thinks guidelines should be waived and designations awarded based on race. How very racist of you thinking black people cannot compete and should be awarded things cause they have an inherited disadvantage. yep, not racist at all. -

Lets dig a little deeper into the story than the headline shall we?. https://www.yahoo.com/news/mississippi-high-school-agreed-2-103019834.html?.tsrc=fp_deeplink So the way this high school determines the designation is straight GPA, not Quality Point Average(QPA).Those are published guidelines in the student handbook. A new counselor to the school based the designations on QPA..a mistake acknowledged the districts' Black Superintendent. Hey it happens, people make mistakes, no biggie. Correct line of action according to strict interpretation would be to name the two people with highest GPA with he designations. But this district did the humane thing and awarded co designations. They should be applauded for making what I can see as a great compromise. But no, people like you want to make this a racist thing. Cause you want to make everything a racist thing. I guess the two kids who thought/knew they won based on the PUBLISHED guidelines should just keep their mouths shut cause they white? -
The American Media Should Not Be Trusted

Okay, so according to you until the FBI confirms its Hunters laptop, it means we must assume it is not Hunters laptop. But, the FBI cannot confirm anything in an ongoing investigation https://www.fbi.gov/about/faqs/can-i-obtain-detailed-information-about-a-current-fbi-investigation-that-i-see-in-the-news I also posted a source form CNN that says the laptop is firmly believed to Hunters, may have been out of his possession, and another source from a the Daily Mail that confirms with forensics the veracity of the laptop and its info. But you choose not to believe it cause it does not fit your narrative. Be nice if we used that same standard on every anti Trump/Republican story. Sources no longer valid until the FBI confirms it!!!!!!
