jimmy griffin Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Jaguars] Del Rio Blames Agent For Derrick Harvey Holdout -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As the contract dispute between the Jacksonville Jaguars and rookie defensive end Derrick Harvey lingers, Jags coach Jack Del Rio has taken off the gloves and swung a bare-knuckled fist at Harvey’s agent. Several days ago, Del Rio pointed a finger at Ken Kremer of CAA during Del Rio’s weekly radio show. “Obviously, it has gone on quite a while and there’s a great deal of money that’s gone by right now,” Del Rio said. “Quite frankly, I think its more about the agent than the player. When you look at the numbers, it doesn’t make sense for anyone expect the agent building a client base for next year.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got_Wood Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Right on the money. This is definitely more about Eugene Parker's ego than Peters. As we've seen with some of his other players, Steven Jackson and Devon Hester, he is willing to rip a team apart by holding his players hostage to get them a bigger payday. The league needs to take a stance on this. If you are not in the final year of your contract, you must show up to play for your team. Or you will pay the consequenses (suspension, league fine, etc.).

Cue the whiners who will counter with, "but the teams can fire the players any time they choose" -- despite the fact that star players are never cut like this. Players cut are either underperforming their contracts or are aging superstars with heavily back-loaded deals -- situations the players completely understood going in.

Parker isnt holding anyone hostage, he works for his clients and no matter what advice he gives them its their decision to not report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clownments22 Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 He's a stud with a big future ahead of him. I don't know man. Says he has 18 years experience already. Sounds like he needs to hang it up. We don't want any Gary Anderson for a punter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought Jimmy Griffin was a idiot, defeatist panzie with bad English - you do a very good imitation. Maybe a bit overboard and exaggerated but recognizable.
