Re: How reporters are so quick to point fingers
I guess I feel that Jenkins and Wilbon are rubbing it in a bit, but that's what sports columnists do. And Danny and the skins are easy targets because every year it's something in the offseason, and the record never improves. And we know how much Pastabelly loves the skins...
But about the Coles thing, everyone keeps saying it's not about the money, Coles wants out, etc. But why is he insisting on a new deal from the Jets, a demand that KILLED THE DEAL? He was going to get exactly the same amount of money to return to Chad-land and long-pass glory and he kills it by DEMANDING MORE MONEY. And its the skins that are messed up here? My guess is its just like Wibon said: Danny said, sure, we'll consider FA as a possibility, and then Gibbs said WTF, we need to get some value. Coles wanting to be a FA is all about money, and the skins (Gibbs, I take it) bent over backward to try and move him. When they dare to ask for a little compensation, they're the ones who are screwed up? I don't buy it. As for the alleged promise of FA status to Coles, it's he said/she said, and Danny is the local child molestor at Neverland ranch/Redsksins park. And he will be until we make some decent moves and WIN SOME GAMES. As for Lavar, his agent signed a contract without reading it. And again, this is Danny's fault? Couldn't possibly be the sainted Postons. You don't have to be a Crazy Cannuck to know that a SECOND 6.5 million dollar bonus was impossible for the skins, salarycap-wise. How did the Postons miss that? Or did they just get greedy and think they'd pulled a fast one on the NFL's friendliest ATM? Again, it's supposed to be the evil Danny-boy tricking inncocent agents and players. Please. Everyone brings long knives to these negotiations, and no one is telling the whole truth. It's business, people. This happens when you buy a car, you buy a computer, you negotiate for a raise, etc. As for having "done everything wrong," let's wait and see. They didn't let Coles walk for nothing. They didn't offer Rolle a 15 mil bonus. They've created a lot of cap space with subtle moves and restructures. The rest is offseason smoke, so far. FA begins today.
