First, last year he broke a sholder blade. Not exactly a tweaked hammy. Here's his games played/started:
1977 SEA 10 10
1998 SEA 16 16
1999 SEA 16 16
2000 SEA 16 16
2001 SEA 8 7
2002 SEA 15 15
2003 SEA 12 8
This doesn't look too bad to me. Only missed serious time in two years.

Second, paying a legend like Emmitt a little respect after a huge accomplishment is OK with me. Would you rather have Springs trip him walking off the field?

Third, he was smart enough not to get a personal foul after the sharpie incident. That's OK with me too. We had too many stupid penalties last year.

Fourth, the other available, young, "shut down" free agent corner (Winfield) backed out of his deal with the Jets because the Vikes came up with more money. Would you rather have us in that position?
