Hester holds out

[Darius Ali]

Is this even news anymore when a player holds out? Here is a quote from the man himself.

"I can’t go out and play this year making $445,000. Come on man”



I say, "FUCK YOU Devin Hester."


Millions of people go out and work for 20-30 grand a fucking year you bitch.

Its not like the Bears were low balling you. After your contract was up they would have given you a nice deal. Your a fucking Punt/Kick Returner. You WILL NOT do what you have been doing every year PERIOD. YOU WILL NOT. Last year you failed as a WR. 20 catches. F you and your greedy ass that keeps the cycle going. I hate sports sometimes....

[Agent Zero]

Tell us how you really feel. LOL

How much is he asking for? Does anyone know?

[nyG]

Fact of the matter is, he is the difference maker of this team, his TDs alone are what made a 4-12 team finish last season 7-9. Best return man of all time already, and he is going to see more time this year as a WR.

"millions of people" don't have the ability/work ethic to be a professional ball player, nothing is stopping them from going out there and doing it instead of working at mcdonalds. thats why there's only around 2,000 players in the league.

You must really hate Basketball then, all their monies are guaranteed.

[Darius Ali]

Making that much money doesn't bother me at all. Its when they complain about making it is when I get mad. Or when they demand more, out of nowhere rather then just finishing thier contract then asking for more. I have been at lots of jobs where I have quit because they would not pay more. BUT, I give my two weeks and finish it out. I don't just say, F it, Im not going in.

Give him the money. He's the best player on your team. He's the only reason the Bears had a better record than they played.

[Darius Ali]

I agree about paying him, but not like this. Wait till your contract is over then you will get paid, or leave. AND I GARUNTEE he will not continue to run back kicks at this pace.

You think he'll be the next Dante Hall?
As much as Hall isn't the biggest threat anymore, didn't he kind of get back on track a bit last year in St. Louis? [Minus the fact that team was a disaster].

[nyG]

pretty random guarantee, his impact is undeniable. Teams kick the ball out of bounds, squib kickoffs, and muff punts just trying to avoid putting the ball in his hands. He's the fastest man in the league and has great vision for the holes that his men open up.

[Darius Ali]

Exactly what everyone said about Hall. He eventually died down. He will always be a very good return man. But he will not continue to take it to the house 6-7 times a year.

I say *KGB* Pay theh man his mahnee *KGB*. I mean seriously, even though I think athletes are overpaid, imagine getting paid a fraction as much as people you work with who do nothing compared to you. You'd be pissed off too.

[Darius Ali]

I would if my contract ran out then they still refused to pay me. I WOULD NOT be pissed if I was in the middle of a contract. I would play it out first.
