Well to be honest the players should hold no loyalty to the fans... we're fans of a uniform... an emblem... if joe gibbs came back and coached the cowboys how many people would follow him. None i hope. Players & coaches have to look out for whats best for them first. Granted there are players with enough character to stay on teams they love for less money (bruschi), but you really only get that with consistantly winning teams. Once someone starts waving millions of dollars in everyone else's face, their loalties will tend to change.

Having said that, it would be wonderful to see the chump play WR against his former team and try to do something cocky only to catch a forearm to the face (like TO) from the player who invented a position... the free linebacker (which was the highlight of my entire season).

Just understand, im not siding with the players who've left, i wish the $#!+ talkers of them nothing but the worst, but i can certainly understand from an objective standpoint how a player can change their mind about a team with a consistant losing record that wont kiss their ass like they've done so many other players in the past.
