And yes it's very similar. Like I've said before, the NFL is a very cut-throat, me-first business.

Every business is "cut-throat, me-first" just to different degrees. What shouldn't be overlooked is that teams are taking chances on players when they sign them to big deals and they are penalized in cap space if they cut them usuallly. The player on the other hand, gets some guaranteed cash.
Of course each side gets something & has its self-interest, but the investment goes both ways. Either side can get screwed in the end. There is still some trust & honor involved.
In the case of Ocho e.g., he's crying yet his team will take a big cap hit to trade him. News flash to he & Rosenhaus, your interest is not the only consideration here!
