DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagle (PIMP)

I think the whole pr getting murdered is overrated....how many times do you see people get killed and their season ended on punt returns

pretty much never

romey is pretty funny because he says how little pimp actually returns the ball on punts but yet says its too dangerous

why someone wouldnt want their teams best weapons on the field whenever possible is beyond me...especially when that weapon is retardedly good

hell why not just rotate vick with VY while were at it

Right, because the Eagles aren't stupid enough to rotate the QBs.

pimp should just fair catch everything until he has a new deal

Yep. I'm not one to side with a player very often, but this is ridiculous. They tried to pay Ryan Harris $2 million, over 3 times what DeSean makes.

Stephen A. Smith said it pretty good yesterday on 105.7 the fan in B-more. Pretty much called out the Eagles front office, basically saying that they just shouldn't put him out there for six hundred grand and talked about how good a player Pimp is.

You have to listen to him talk about Joe Flacco first but it's an interesting outlook on the situation.

DeSean Jackson's agent Drew Rosenhaus and #Eagles GM Howie Roseman exchanged pleasantries in the tunnel after the game. Contract talks next?

I still can't believe be played without getting paid.  The guy is being a lot more generous to the Eagles than they will ever be to him.

[Eagaholic]

I believe he gets a $30k/day fine if he does hold out and Rosenhaus knows what to expect by now holding Eagles out.

I believe he gets a $30k/day fine if he does hold out and Rosenhaus knows what to expect by now holding Eagles out.

He would also forfeit this season meaning he'd still be property of the Eagles next season (they wouldn't have to franchise him).

Yeah he's underpaid and I hope he gets a new deal, but he's still paid a hell of a lot more money than the average Joe and all for playing a game. There are a lot of Doctors who wish they had his zesty deal . Sure they're not risking their neck on the football field but their job is a million times more important than Deseans.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Let's see if they add any new veterans after week 1 - then they pretty much only have one order of business.

[Diomedes]

Yeah, extending Shady.

average joe in his case is lets say owen schmitt or king dunlop....who both make the same amount as pimp

Never understand why someone compares a professional athlete (elite no less) to the rest of america's working class when it comes to negotiating what they should get paid.

There is no comparison. Ever.

The worst was when Joe Truck Drivers were calling up sports talk radio screaming that if they had done what Vick had done they would not have been giving a second chance.  So glad, those some guys are now hanging from Vick's teet.
