[QUOTE="sschind, post: 1029299, member: 10247"] It can be difficult for regular Joes like most of us to even fathom what these athletes go through with their multi million dollar careers. We see a 35 million dollar payday and wonder how in the world a guy could need more. For some that wouldn't be enough. For others it would be plenty. Judging from Jones' comments last year I'm guessing he falls into the latter category.e any If Jones was that concerned about the money I don't think he would have taken the cut last season and that cut didn't touch the 2024 salary. That means if he was satisfied with taking a cut last year he probably would be willing to again if they added new money to the deal. He wouldn't even have to take a cut if they converted salary to signing bonus. I don't hold it against anyone for going after the money. What gets me is when they say stuff like "I really want to stay here but it is not up to me". Yes it is. Unless you dont get an offer you have the choice to take what they offer or go elsewhere for more money. If you choose to leave fine, but dont say its not up to me. Say "I'd like to stay but I'm going to go where they offer me the most money." At least be honest about it. [/QUOTE]
