Jesus you must work for Revis or something. It's not like the Jets are asking Revis to give them a hometown discount. A contract averaging $12m a season is right up there in relation to other top CB contracts - with the one exception of Aso, which has been gone over so many times here there is no need to do so again. It's a massive contract by any standard. It is not reasonable to expect 33.3% more ON TOP OF THAT. And just stop with the $12 per hour crap. That is so far away from $12m a year you're just making yourself sound silly. It
So we've established that Revis should be making less than 16 million a year but more than $6.50 an hour. This is progress....
So Graziano is still the only guy who says the Jets and Revis are close. ESPN and NYDN have been saying they haven't heard anything but that's because nobody's talking. Great stuff...
Yeah if I had a nickel for everytime I see a 5 post count with some amazing revelation about how to fix this mess I could fuckin pay Revis by now.
That's exactly what this is you idiot. Your owner is a BILLIONAIRE. The NFL makes BILLIONS of dollars of these players. Working class people have more rights than Darelle Revis. You can choose who you want to work for players can't.
Thanks for agreeing so vehemently with my point. Darrelle Revis does want way more than he needs. 40 million dollars more, to be precise. 120 million dollars should be enough. And you're right, Darrelle really should visit a third world country and get some perspective. Maybe Haiti?
The Darrelle Revis Holdout Thread (Revis tweets w/Whore but it was a meanless tweet) This thread is definitely headed in the right direction now. I'm more then willing to pay him $16.00 per hour, I wonder if they tried that offer yet?
Yeah, that makes sense. Darrelle Revis is just like a guy making 20,000 dollars a year. You smoke crack, don't you?!
Fine I'll even give you this point. He's not greedy, and even if he is it's his perrogative. What he is, however, is delusional. He is asking for more than the market will bear - the market being Tanny and Woody, as they are the whole market. Therefore he must ask for less, or withold his services. According to his dumbass agents he is asking for what he's worth on the free market. Wether that is true or not is irrelevant, because he's not on the free market.
I would love to know where you are pulling these statistics from? 12/hr or 20k is getting you what exactly?
You are absolutely insane. You obviously have no idea about what the cost of living is. Sure you can live in a box for free, but 20,000 a year won't cut it even if you live on bare necessities. Comparing poverty in other countries to the value of an American dollar is also just completely asinine.
