CNYfan Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Ratings and attention. Now Gruden is going to look even worse; he should have backed his GM, but chose Brown thus undermining Mayock. Now Brown has betrayed him again. Seahawks, Chiefs or Patriots. 1

THIS. He will get NOWHERE near the money he was getting in Oakland. Plus nobody will give him a guarantee like that again. Oh and mostly: 1
buffaloboyinATL Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 But wait, I heard he gave the whole team a “heart felt” apology and they were ready to move on as one big happy family.

Gruden deserves for both to leave, so he can get back to sucking.

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Time for a ‘sit down’ in Marky Mark’s mini van with Gruden, AB, Maycock, and Davis. Jeebus, if that doesn’t sound like a scene cut from ‘Dumb and Dumber’, I don’t know what does.
Doc Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Again I say suspend hm. He either shows up to play for them or no one else. 1

You're not owned when getting paid $50M over a 3 year span to play a game. What has he done? He didn’t show up for practice and walk through? He felt like the team didn’t appreciate him. That his hard work and dominant play, weren’t enough. The “man” that does get to do whatever he wants is a multiple time accused rapist and generally unpleasant guy, is carried around on the shoulders of the team. Can you see the thread here starting to form a pattern? He works his tail off in the offseason, gets himself into insane shape, and is clearly the best player on the Raiders, and then after STANDING BY HIM, they fine him. The money isn’t the issue, it’s the principle behind the money. Gruden said “can you just stop this ***** and play football”. Clearly it’s more than money he is after. Clearly he wants to be VALUED not paid. He doesn’t want to just be paid, he wants to be treated like a great player and be given leeway and appreciation for his hard work and effort. If by some miracle he played on Monday Night, he could easily haul in 10 for 200 and 2 scores, and that’s after all this drama. He’s a special player, and feels like he should be treated that way. I dont think that’s so crazy really. It just seems that way because his dispute is read by millions of people and broadcast across the world. 1 1

Ok so can he be ready to suit up for the pats against the Steelers for Monday night ? Somehow the NFL management types, pressured to win at all costs, always allow these personality types to keep having chance after chance after chance. I really wouldn’t be shocked if he ends up a Pat. Who else could even think about taking this on; only the Pats have personalities in place that still dwarf AB and his distorted self value. 1

The amount of money isn’t the issue. You can feel owner making $10/hour. Money doesn’t buy freedom if you’re employer treats you like an employee. 1
YoloinOhio Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Don’t release him. Make him inactive for Monday. If he doesn’t show up for practice put him on the failure to report list. 3 1

Don't you think the Steelers were looking to trade him for more than they finally accepted from the Raiders? Why didn't Pittsburg get more in compensation? No one wants a headache this big. Except maybe Andy Reid. who did sign T.O. But your talking about a player that is throwing his entire team and organization under the bus....2 days BEFORE the beginning of the season. A lot more teams will let him float on the waiver wire than line up to acquire his services. Why didn’t the Texans get more for clowney? He clearly threatened to not report to most teams reducing his value. The team took away 30 mil in guarantees 2 days before the season because he missed practice. They knew what they were getting into and they deserve this.
