Now from the players' view, you'd much rather have the big money SB. And I know with the Franchise tender the liability for injury lies with the player. But my god, from a team standpoint, how can a franchise player EVER feel like he's not wanted? How is that possible? You're the damn franchise player, be a leader!
Well that's one aspect of the CBA some players really don't like; The Franchise Tag.

As far as some players are concerned, the term 'Franchise' means nothing to them. It's really a tool to allow the teams to buy more time.
