[QUOTE="MajicMan, post: 13180, member: 217"] Yeah, so Kleinsasser hosed the Queens out of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, can't blame Franks for wanting that...But teams shouldn't pay because other teams are stupid. As for the Franks situation as a whole. Gotta love how Mato is handing this: "I'm not controversial," said Mato, who became a certified agent in 1997. "Bubba's not controversial. We understand the business side of this. In this situation, we don't understand where the team is coming from. "Bubba believes that he has done everything that has been asked of him from a football standpoint to be rewarded with a long-term deal. He played out his rookie contract never asking for an extension and never threatening a holdout even though he has been in three Pro Bowls. "He has never complained about lack of receptions. He has always been a team player. Off the field, he has never been in any trouble." ..."Bubba's really focused on a long-term deal. Bubba's every intention has been to retire as a Packer. This guy is touting himself as the anti-Rosenpig. Nice move. Music to my ears. :mrgreen: I say stop fishing for a "Gonzalez type" TE, be happy with what you have, stop lowballing Bubba for balls you don't throw his way...and sign him long term at a middle number that gives a little for what Bubba has done for this team. Make a statement, reward Bubba for doing everything we've asked of him, and waiting to get paid when the time is right...and here's a new concept: Trying expanding the sure handed Franks responsibilites all over the field... How about a few more balls outside the redzone? I think he's been pigeonholed because he's not Tony Gonzalez, but he could do fine with his solid all-around skills at TE. [/QUOTE]
