Agreed.

The players themselves understand this even more than we can. On a related note most players don't have a problem with guys who hold out either... they know it's all about getting what you can while you're in the game.

Its a flawed system where a Veteran player has to resort to holding out while rookies coming into the league get the guaranteed money.

Fans call them greedy and all that but many times its not correct.

well if they dont want to cut back to 2 games why not keep the 4 games and make it 7min qtrs.

tendonitis is about the least worry some injury in the league. rest will make it fine, if not it wont hamper his play. this guy was a warrior for us in 05 so dont worry about these little gay injuries, they are nothing. i had tendonitis in my knees twice and all i can tell you is that i could do anything once a freaking week at the best of my ability, back to back days could be tough but could do it if i wanted to.
