Money is one of the worst reasons to motivate a player, and definitely not the type of player you want on any team. (think Haynesworthless) I imagine Young still hasn't got a frigging clue about work ethic or anything of the sort, he's just desperate for a pay check to keep up that lifestyle he's used to. He got drunk off the fame and glory of being a NFL QB, and he simply blew it by not working hard and winging it via natural ability. It cost him, and my guess is he's done for in the NFL much like another sloucher we know of. (Jamarcus Russell) His only chance is to come into somebody's camp and win out in competition (which he couldn't even do in Buffalo).


...and then there is always begging.

The Arizona quarterbacks are a disgrace, so much that yes VY probably would be an upgrade.

I think fans need to start a "Free Larry Fitz" campaign.

Id be checking with Jim Harts agent asap.

The whole Larry Fitz thing just goes to show the vagaries of fortune in the NFL. You can be the right player in the wrong place and be denied a HOF career. Imagine Fitz with A. Rodgers or D. Brees or any competent QB.

It really is a shame for him.

Larry shackled himself to that sinking ship the moment he signed a contract giving him a average of 15mil per year. Dont' think many teams are going to pony up that kind of dough for a WR. The big money is going to go to QBs, DL, OT, and everybody else secondary.

My biggest belief in all sports. Situation situation situation. Imagine if we had gotten Dan Marino who the Dolphins landed because ironically we showed them the year before that Woodley was not the QB they thought he was. Dolphins win that game and chances are the Fins dont draft Marino but stick with Woodley. Imagine Marino on those great Skins teams. Granted we got Green but still.
Edit: we had Marino marked as our guy and the fins snatched him up rite in front of us.

Nick Eatman ‏@nickeatman

WR Dez Bryant could be out for the rest of the season. Pending the results of a hand specialist, but his finger injury could require surgery


That would be huge for the cowboys!

Edit: duplicate post of information above.
