SC, I wasn't aware that the surgery could be career ending. I thought he was just being stubborn and didn't want to end this season early. Sorry, I misunderstood. But if you ask me players these days care less about playing for a team and more about playing for a fat paycheck. I wouldn't mind seeing players care more about the "team" for once. What ever happened to loyalty?

I agree with that NY! Today, players have the "me" attitude or in better terms, the "pay me" attitude! I honestly believe that the younger fans of football today have been cheated! Don't get me wrong, football is exciting to watch and there are players that play because they want to win a championship, but to me, it just seems as if players back in the day played with more loyality for a team regardless of what team it was. I know free agency and the salary cap has alot to do with that, but I enjoyed the time knowning that when a player played for the Redskins, he WAS a Redskin, he wasn't just a player in the NFL who happens to play for our team.
