I swear, it baffles me how much normal people can relate to and sympathize with millionaire owners. When a team cuts a player, everyone says "oh it's a business decision", but when a player asks for a raise, everyone piles up on the player.

I don't know much about Gore's or Johnson's situation. But Jackson has been a beast for the Eagles and deserves to be paid more.

He should absolutely get a raise, he's earned it. But, you don't stop showing up for work until you get a raise. He's not showing much of a work ethic or regard for his team right now...a bit Haynesworthian in a way.

I have no problem if he publicly said "I deserve more money" because it's true...but show up and prove you're worthy of it.
