Alright guys, I am bout to speak out on this issue. People have said how selfish a McKenzie is or a T Owens is. I don't understand it....and here is why. An NFL Team does not have to honor a contract..right. If ur not sure, see the Lawyer Milloy situation a couple of years ago, but NFL teams get frustrated with guys when they hold out. All the guy is doing is making sure he gets his; because with the way the organizations treat contracts they are not guaranteed anything(except a signing bonus)!! I used to be on the other side of the fence on this.. as far as calling these guys(players) selfish. Now...i dont think it is as bad as cutting somebody a few days before the season, or before a roster bonus is due. So my whole point to this is.....who is really the selfish one, the organization or the players?
