[QUOTE="ricky, post: 5684, member: 11"] In some of the papers lately, there was a story that Marco Rivera, after signing with Dallas for a $9 million signing bonus, and after injuring his back, talked with his wife, then walked into Jerry Jones office and offered to void his deal (including signing bonus). Jones refused, according to these reports. Therefore, we have two VERY honoraable people, all doing the "right thing." We have Rivera, a true Packer warrior and good citizen offering to return "ill-gotten gains." Then we have Jerry Jones, a true gentleman, refusing to go back on his written word. Oops- when contacted in Hawaii at the owners meetings, Jones said he had no knowledge of any such meeting. Which brings up a very interesting question: is some one lying? Rivera said he made the offer directly to Jones. Jones said he knows nothing of the offer. The outcome? Blame the media! Rivera will claim he was "misquoted", and Jones will suddenly have a "recovered memory." Oh well, I'm posting this wherever I can, because this is just too good to miss. [/QUOTE]
