BNB true. Neither do I(have a huge pension plan), but I don\'t stand for incompetence and unrealistic expectations either.

Danno, if you didn\'t know it\'s cool, but Barry Sanders retired in his prime cause he felt his team was not trying to win. He was the greatest rb ever IMO. If it\'s good enough for Barry to quit on a bunch of losers, it\'s good enough for me. Deuce is not the first disgruntled employee on the planet, nor will he be the last. He was, is, and should be the first offensive option for this team so the priority should be to keep him happy. It wasn\'t. Case closed for me. I am sure noone will have a list of negatives next year when somone with some brains sets the ship straight coaching this team. No rb in the NFL is perfect, but if you are the key cog to your team\'s offense, and they change it, that\'s a slap in the face to me. Have at it Deuce.

Tobias, I would like to know where you are coming from. Are you saying we should get rid of Deuce? Is Deuce the problem in your opinion? The point of a hypothetical example is that it is hypothetical. It was used to explain Deuce\'s frustration with the offense which he has expressed. It has no bearing on what job he is doing. I used that example to explain how frustrating something ridiculous like that would be, like asking a 2000 total yard pro bowl back to adjust to a new offense. I thought it fit quite nicely.
